Talking New '95 LS400 Owner!

Good evening CL. I've been a member here for a while with an 06 GS300, just picked up my '95 LS400 as a daily driver. I must say that I am VERY impressed with it being that it is a 14 year old car. Very smooth & poweful, quiet and luxurious. I was also surprised that the car had as many features as it did.

I picked her up for $6500 OTD fully loaded with 105K miles

My plans for her mod wise will be:
1) Red clear tail lights
2) Megan LP Coilovers
3) 19" Work VS-XX Black polished wheels
4) OEM Lexus Japan Visors
5) Fabulous Front Grill
6) Fabulous Eye Lids
7) Mack Blick Roof Spoiler

Here are some pics in its pure stock form.









And my GS

Congrats on the new ride. While there are a ton of LS's for sale out there, finding a clean well maintained car with less than 100K (or 105) is getting harder and harder. At least here in Nor Cal it is, I've been looking for 3+ months! Your car looks *sharp* and very clean indeed!

For comparison's sake, I paid $7200 for a very clean '97 LS4 Coach Edition. Needs tires, though so I bought a set of '2002 LS430 wheels with good Michelins for $430.
