Hot Damn that is a great looking vehicle...Mine just past 165K...ordered some new/refurb rims to replace the rotted messes that are on there now - got machined finish for a little change. I was 100% going with 18 inch rims then after reading a bunch stuck with 16inch since my tires are new. New sub purchased and needs to be put in, needs new window tinting and a complete overhaul on the paint job.

I hit 198,000 on the way into work this morning. I need to start buying all the party supplies for the 200K party. Should be in about 3 weeks or so...

I sold it to a small used car dealership yesterday for $3,500. Less than it’s worth but glad to be done with trying to convince someone that a car with 313,000 miles still has life and value. On to enjoying my 2016 LS460.

wow, i'm really surprised they gave you that much for it actually. Unless they inflated the price of car they sold you to cover it, which is pretty common tactic. If not, like i said I'm surprised. An LS430 with that many miles is going to have a very narrow market....we know they're solid cars but outside of a Lexus enthusiast not many do

About to turn 122,000 on my 2005 beauty!
The IS250C is my wife's...not to shabby of a car either.
In the one pic in the garage you can really see the difference between pearl white and bright white! I always thought my LS was pretty white...the IS250C is...glaringly white! LOL.

Just turned 60,000 on the 2005 last night on the way back to the hotel we're staying at near the EAA Fly In Convention up here in Oshkosh. So, that's 12,000 miles in a little over 2 years... I do that in my 2001 in 4 months!
