Default Just got my LS400 !! pics + mods inside

I just got a 1992 Lexus LS400 gotta say I really like this car already!! I bought the car off a customer of mines grandfather for a very modest car. The most astounding thing is that the car only had 32,000 miles on it and thats not a typo. Really fortunate to have found an LS with such low miles as I have heard they go on to 200,000+

Anyway here are some pictures of the car with my brother in it. The car is in pretty nice shape inside as you can see. I also installed a double din pioneer avh-4400 inside to replace the stock pioneer casette player. It really made a world of difference and the install was quick and painless. This week when my cables arrive I will be installing a JL audio JX 1000 and a 15 inch Kicker L7.

I'm looking to mod the car more in the future like maybe tinting the windows, adding HID bi xenon headlights, swapping the rims. If anyone has any suggestions feel free to add as I am pretty open minded coming into this build. I wouldn't mind converting this car to vip style or maybe even a drifter. The power-train definitely has alot of life left in it.

32K Are you sure... lol If so, that is great. Rubber and gaskets go with time. So does the needs for really everything. Welcome to the club. I have a 99 with 73K and I love it.

That's awesome. Low miles LS400's are difficult to find these days. Pretty much, the only way you can find one is through a family member. Welcome to CL!

I'd run a carfax to verify the miles, just to be sure. But either way in really good shape, especially with the tan interior

Would not be too hard to have the leather fixed up as well.

Get some softscrub lemon, make sure it's without bleach. I used it to clean my leather, and it cleaned almost all the transfer stains from clothing plus whatever dirt. Make sure to use a leather cleaner and conditioner after though! Besides that it's in really great shape, not my favourite colour though lol

32k?? You're lucky if that's true.
Check the classifieds to look for mods to save some $

Default Sound of Pioneer avh-4400

I'm considering installing a Pioneer avh-4400. How did it sound with the head unit by itself on the stock speakers?
