Hi,
I am Don from Ohio (don't hold this against me).
I have been lurking here for some time and decided it was time to sign up and become a member..
Thanks for all the great info and pics.
I have been gassing for a LS400 for some time due to a recent LS400 purchase a friend of mine made.
I actually became an owner as of this weekend.
It is a 2 owner 95 LS400 150K that has been maintained very nicely.
Non smoker and no kids car.
Interior and exterior are near mint.
Everything works and I am extremely happy with the performance and ride comfort.
There MAY be a few issues I need to address down the road, but for now I am going to just enjoy the ride.
thanks,
Don
Here are some pics.

Car looks like a slam dunk!! Nice find, clean ride....good to see that some people can still take care of a car 15 years old and still keep it clean.

Hello and welcome. Damn it looks great. Super shape from the pictures. What about the interior?

Any future plans or do you wanna stick with the original design. It sure looks like a nice found. Congrats on that. You will definitely be happy for your LS400. Its a very nice car.

Thanks guys...(yes...barn/corn/cop..lol)
I gave 4300- He claimed the book was around 7250- he wanted 5000-
I went with cash and beat him up pretty good.(started at 4K and held my ground...settled at 4300-)
This guy just got transferred overseas and could not take the car with him.(2 year contract)
New tires Dayton Quadra LE P225/60R16 97T
New struts/new rotor and cap/TP sensor/fresh oil change/life time battery with reciept/new wiper blades/recent tranny fluid changed/new pads and rotors(lifetime as well)/oxygen sensor/alignment and fuel flush...These were all recent reciepts.
Timing belt has been changed.
The interior is just as clean as the exterior.
I will try and get some pics today.
My wife drove it and reported..."Tight".
Regarding mods: I am an older guy, I like stock.(If that makes any sense)

tint is an interior investment, and it seems like a stock look with the ls.
for example mine.. ps: I love Texas, they pretty much don't give a damn bout tint ova here.
