Hi all:
Well Ive been thinking about getting a new car as I now have my 2 year old full time and need a 4 door. Ive been looking at the LS400s. Ive looked aroundthe site and cant find an area that would be a model faq or sometype. what I want to know is model diffrences between years/generations, options etc etc etc.

Would appreciate any info directing me to that.

Thanks

This is great - I was looking for something along these lines when I was shopping for my car also.

Try Edmunds.com. Go to the used car section, pull up the LS year you want and get into the Research section. They usually have a discussion about what features are new for that year.

The info on this site is great! It seriously helped me in determining which generation LS to buy. I ended up getting a 95' after narrowing down the differences and realizing that the 95'-97' would best fit my budget and get me the most for it. I was so apperciative that I even paypaled the guy a couple bucks after buying my car.

on the 98 ls400 they have the WRONG interior.

Lex LS's engine bay shot shows a discrepancy..

i have a UCF10 and my engine bay looks like the UCF11's... the coolant resivoirs are different..

weird.
