I want it too sit very nice but I want to look for parts for the motor and interior
What would you recommend ? Does a cold air intake help ? My car feels a little heavy while I have my foot on the petal

Listen to everyone on here. More pictures of the entire car? Interior, engine bay, rear, etc. I say do all the needed stuff and in the meantime do the paint later.
Whats wrong with the color now?

Trust me...... save your money. Things YOU MUST fix will find you after you start driving it and wrenching on it. The money earmarked for visuals will be diverted to repairs anyway.
That is if we like it, or not! Just chill and drive, learn, wrench.

Looks great from the pic. I actually like your color more than black. Black a a pain to keep nice. As least for me. I've owned too many balck vehicles.

In for paseo dyno sheets. Thing had to have made at least 70 I call bs.
Op, car has 160k. Bet you need struts, at a minimum flca's, and steering rack bushings. That's an easy $500. And then its still slow. If you don't make/have access to a continuous flow of decent money I'd consider trading for a Honda of some sort and learning about cars the cheap way. Starting with an sc and little working knowledge of autos could get you in real deep real quick.

^^Op you make It seems like its a Ferrari or Porsche!!!
Lexus is Toyota so its not even that expensive to fix things.
Im sure he makes decent money to fix it even if he ever runs into problems.
