What is it? It's the Japanese Catalog for the Celsior...it's actually a BOOK, not like that crap we get here...

Here's the hard to get "Price List"...The Japanese do have some "different" ways of doing business...

Default Whoa.

Damn, even if I knew nothing about
Lexus, just looking at the book would
make me want to go and buy an LS.
Manaray, how do you get this sort of
stuff, man?

Hehehe...I get stuff like this through my JDM contacts...don't know how many he can get though...it's not like the dealerships just leave these out for people to take (like American dealerships...)...you have to go in and actually look like you're going to buy...so it helps if you speak and look Japanese (and rich)...

I'm waiting to get an Aristo one since I own a GS...I wish I could find an older Soarer one too (I have the new SC430 version of the book)...
