Default Is This your LS400?

Somebody's kid was having fun with daddy's car. I hope this car does not belong to any members. If it is your kid, you should probably ground him from driving your car..

looked like the guy from the local parking lot,,

would agree I am not interested in finding out if my lexus will burn a strip over 100 feet,, as the tires are getting close to being replaced I know if I happen to hit it a little harder than normal it sill start to break and squeal,,

That guy does look a bit older - Never in my LS - but I put 285's on the rear so it won't do that anyway except in the rain

why do any of you care? the LS are built pretty ****ing bulletproof. if someone wants to have a little fun and roast some tires, who are you to judge? its not going to hurt the car. oh, and whats this "waste the tires" crap? who says they werent already on the way out? even if they werent, he didnt do a long enough burnout to do a ton of damage to the tires.

wahhh wahhh sometimes you guys are a bunch of crybabies.

get off your high horses already. some of you sound like scrooge.

BAH HUMBUG
