Default Hello from Vancouver!

Hey everyone, I've come to introduce myself as a potential Lexus/Toyota owner.

My name is Quoc (Jimmy), and I'm a newbie at a Lexus dealership for about a month now. I own a AE86, Subari Kei truck Sambar which my co-worker written off on my second day of work (OUCH!) and I feel it's about the right time to have my 86 on the side so I can work on it and have a daily driver.


Which comes to this, I want an Aristo... I've spotted one, I plan to buy it and I'd like to learn more about this vehicle. I like it because of it's body lines, especially the rear end. The engine, which is very much famous and last but not least the status of such a beautiful 1990's car.



So, hello everyone and please take care of me !
