Picked up a 98' LS w/ 170k miles for $3,500.00. ORIGINAL owner! 78yr old woman! ALL service records from Lexus (14 Pages) front and back. Spoke with one of their service advisors and he indicated to me that she had it there every 2-2,500 miles for oil changes. All maintenance is up to date. Garage kept too! Drives like a dream. Near mint condition. Love it and can't wait to start modding

 

Congrats on the purchase. What's the first mod that you have in mind?

 

Coilovers, rims and a few suspension components ;-)

 

Welcome to the club! The faq are your friend

 

Thanks! I'm very familiar with CL. This site has been a WEALTH of knowledge! A DIY's dream :-D

 

beautiful, welcome and keep up updated on her progress!

 

Looking forward to seeing what you do with it!

 

Wow, congrats on the purchase! That's a bargain for the condition and mileage of the vehicle. Those go for significantly more down here in Atlanta with over 250k miles.

 

you scored big time on that puppy.

 

$3,500?! How did you swing that?

 

That looks very nice !
Grandma is going to miss her car.
How does the seat bolster look?
Sweet deal.

 

Looks to be in mint condition and nice price too. Is it green?

 

Wow. Nice find. It looks to be in great shape! Can't wait to see what wheels you decide to get.

 

Looks good congrats!

 

The car is Onyx Black w/ a tan interior. Only the driver's seat shows some wear. The rest of the interior is mint. @ Thomas GS4, I saw her pull up to a handicapped parking spot at a local grocery store and asked if she'd consider selling and she told me that she'd entertain an offer in the mid $3K range. It took her another 40-50 days to find a replacement vehicle and I purchased it afterwards.

As far as wheels go, I'm thinking about some step lip Works. Possibly 19's or 20's and a slew of suspension components She actually drives better than most newer cars I've been in. Love it!
