It's here its here!!!
 
So for those of you that don't know I imported a 2000 celsior cf package from japan and it got dropped off at my place today. I was a little worried only because I couldn't tell if it was the c package or cf package even tho the auction sheet said cf. Sometimes they mess up on the sheets. So it arrived today and I only had a few moments to play around the vehicle. It has navigation. 6 speakers with 2 pillar tweeters and subwoofer. Rear window has remote control shade. Rear massage seats and recline. Comes with celsior remote tape player. Air suspension. No sunroof and cloth seats which I actually wanted to de different from leather. (Hate how leather cracks) especially on a 16 year old car. The car starts and some of the tv controls work as it plays canadian tv stations but no picture. Will post actuall pictures when I get time and also will be using Google translate to figure out the navigation controls :) stay tuned!!! https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.clu...89b27c24c0.jpg

Very nice! Your Celsior looks great. :bigthumbu

Pretty cool, also nice that your guys restrictions aren't as much BS as ours are. Wish we had more lenient regulations.

dicer Sep 29, 2016 08:53 PM

Very nice looking and love the color. I do have a question, is there a guarantee that it has never had body damage? I would not want to spend money for sight unseen and have a wrecked and fixed car.

Mcsea91 Sep 29, 2016 10:31 PM

Thanks guys! And dicer unfortunately no. If you buy from auction you really have to read the the auction sheets well. Especially the vague pics. There are letter grades of just the car in total and interior grades but body damage is a hit or miss. I haven't looked at mine but it seems really clean no dents. There's also the risk of the guys that unload your vehicles don't damage it unloading or loading it. Some guy on a different import forum I'm on had his hood smashed up and the boat people didn't take responsibility.

dicer Sep 30, 2016 10:24 AM

Wow, that hood deal would be so disappointing, they should have to give a total refund and let him keep the car.

Wow congrats! I bet you are super excited to have your ride in! Can't wait to see some more pics and your impression of driving it

https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.clu...947b0f4fd5.jpgThis does the mirror shake and defogger for the mirors(not sure if the america ls400s have that)

https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.clu...d8bb531a0b.jpgBlue cloth really comfy(like i said before i wanted cloth not leather for the cold weather) they actually look way better in person

https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.clu...d9d7e3b97b.jpgCame with manuals for gps and vehicle. It says in the manual recommend oil is 5w20 but says 5w30 is acceptable. Not sure if its the same for the ls
