Smile Sold My LS got high blue book (pics) look have dope lexus earrings left.

Well boys I sold my ls400 she was one of the best cars I have ever owned. Bought her at 80k in 2000 had her up until now. She was the cleanest one I have ever seen. I could of sold her for over blue book but I took the 4 grand. It was a 1990. Shell be missed, sold all stock except the kenwood deck no rims. Mileage was at 176k and still going very strong I hope I wont regret selling her. They just seem to not make them like they used to, I miss the big wheel wells and the way the mirrors hung on the sides.







I also have some lexus solid gold earrings for sale on ebay they are pretty sharp. I dont need them anymore someone on here should want them more than anyone else. Get em while you can there one of a kind.





Not one problem ever with this car it took me everywhere and then some. The only thing that ever gave me a problem was the water pump housing. Pretty good for a 20 plus year car. Got it fixed and that was it. Interior was black and gray, seats were black leather very suave. Any one else have a black on gray/black one like this? Im interested to see how much these are selling for because mine was worth more than the high blue book. If a car dealer had this car he would of sold it for 8 grand.

First off, nice car, sorry to see you sold it. I would have given you 4k in a second.

Secondly, the earrings probably should be posted as for sale in the classified's if you want someone here to have them. Wont go over well with the mods in this section. But best of luck either way.

I should of came to the internet to sell it but I sold it locally. I MISS my moon roof. One thing that always stuck in my mind with these older lexus models is they still look good they dont seem to go out of style, sure the rims do but the car still looks sweet. I was able to get 22s to fit with no rubbing 22x8s did the job, the other set were just 20s. These cars were built to compete with mercedes in the early 90s and they did just that. I cant believe how well made they were.

Not a big fan of the rims, but, it's still a clean ride. The LS was and is still an amazing car.

I got a 94 cad fleetwood to replace it with 45k on the clock the Lex had 170k. I like this ride alot better than my lexus no problems with it what so ever just like the lexus has alot more power and floats like sailboat, has a vette engine. I paid well over blue book for it, its the cleanest one Ive ever seen. Im not into new cars I like the way cars used to be built and how they used to look, but NO MOONROOF. RWD is the only way to go for me.

Lol no I sold the lex because its miles were getting to high for me but then I turned around and bought a cad 94 fleetwood to take its place. Big body RWD very very extraordinarily clean.

Country livin Heres my 95, not very many of these on the planet, (not the one that took the Lexs place). I believe there is still some things money cant buy. You can go to a car dealer and spend 100 grand on a new car you can spend 10 to 25 grand on one of these IF the seller wants to let it go. These cars will be worth a pretty penny in the very near future.
