Default Just got mine!

Hi all,

I've been lurking on the forums for a while, but finally pulled the trigger on an LS430. I picked up a Black Onyx 2006 yesterday with Nav and ML. Drove it home 2 hours in the rain and absolutely love it. It was a former CPO car with 106K miles on it, and is the cleanest example I have ever seen. I did a ton of research and the car is completely up to date on maintenance and the like so no worries there.

I'll post some pix later.

I've had a MKIV Supra with 1000hp for 12 years and have always had Toyotas. I look forward to making new friends on this forum since I plan to keep the car for a very long time.

Thanks for looking.

Steve

You got a great car. The things you can hear with the ML is amazing. I loved my sound system in my 430. Enjoy!

Thanks everyone. The weather has been horrible lately or I'd post a picture. The car is at the tint shop today being tinted. Once the sun comes out and I wash it, I'll def post some pics of the Lexus and the Supra
