Hell yeah, looking good. Welcome to the club.

Nice! I was looking at a 2000 LS400, but I got impatient and this deal came up. The service history on it is insane. Only things I need to do is replace a passenger fender and send the ECU out for a repair. Everything else has either been rebuilt or replaced by the dealership. Ran the vin through the Lexus Owner’s site and the service history shows one owner before me and goes all the way from delivery to 1000 miles ago. Plans are wheels, bags, muffler delete, and a stealthy sound system utilizing the stock component locations. Want to do a tasteful VIP build. I will be making my own accessories to save some money such as curtains and VIP tables. Might even do my own neck pillows and other bits.

Will do. So far I have a friend offering me a full set of Megan EZ Street coilovers for $350 in excellent condition and someone that has a set of AME Shallen AX’s that are 18x7.5 for under $600 locally. Also going to send the ECU for capacitor service. Going to run the Megans until I can afford the air ride setup.

If those AME's are 3 piece jump on them for sure. You can always re-lip them and end up with a wider wheel with better offsets. 7.5's are a bit slim is the only reason I'm suggesting this. Looks like a great pick up though, especially if the interior is as clean as the outside.

My LS hasn't moved recently (still need to buy new sway bar endlinks) but I took this out for the first time today. Its insane. I've never driven anything close to this fast and I've been fortunate enough to drive some very nice sports cars. The handling is incredible as well, very responsive which is nice. I'd highly recommend acquiring one if any of ya'll are "speed junkies". Anyway, here's my 6'4" self crammed onto the kart. A full helmet is in the works, this is a loaner from a friend so I at least have something to keep my head in one piece.

A 125 on a cart has to be a blast.

I'm pretty sure I'm addicted to it now haha. I don't have a working speedo at the moment but honestly I didn't have much time to look at the mychron anyway, more focused on not crashing.
