Default Hello, new to CL

Just a quick hello to introduce myself.

New owner of this 2004 LS 430, but not new to Lexus. I'll have some questions, no doubt, I hope not too many, but please feel free to use me as a dealership resource as well. I've worked in Lexus sales for 8 years and have great contacts.

Hello!

Welcome. Lovely car. Check out the FAQ section and don't forget to search. Almost anything you can think of has been covered. Searching really does work well.

Since you are a Lexus "insider", you probably already know about this.
Check if the '04 transmission TSB was done.

Thanks all! For those of you who DON'T already know, the classic square body LS430 is already becoming coveted with Lexus people in the business. I hauled this one in from 3 states away, it has but 45k miles.

Looking forward to contributing as much as I can.

Welcome. Love those chrome wheels. My 05 had the stock 5 spoke alloys which I liked as well. You are correct in that I loved the body of the 430. It's certainly a great car! Gratz.

Welcome and we look forward to sharing our mutual wealth of knowledge.

Your LS looks great but I'm a bit prejudiced as I have the same exact one only with the black perfed leather interior. what color is that in yours?

Great looking LS430. Nice wheels and it has sports option. Looks like a keeper.
