Tee, I'm very sorry to see what happened here, but I'm glad you're safe and I hope it all turns out good somehow.

Tee, shame about your car it was so classy the way you had it setup. On the good side it could have always been worse. On another good note...I will gladly buy your wood trim surround for the shifter if it is not damaged and you have access to retrieve it. Just think about some extra cash you can put towards the nice 06 UL i know your going to pick up (i know you wont leave us).

I like them both but I like the 460 more.

Thx for the compliments, sorry State Farm owns the car now and far as leaving I'm staying. In the process of looking for a replacement now, not easy as I thought it was going to be, however patience will have to rule me now.

When I was looking, there always seemed to be a lot of LS430s for sale in the Atlanta area. Hopefully you'll find something soon that meets your criteria.

(I have a 91 Allante with 33K miles or an 02 Dakota with 93K miles I might consider selling.)

Glad you're ok and I feel your pain. I too was rear-ended back on the second week of July 2010. One week before I just had hit 400,000 miles on my 1996 ES 300...I was so bummed...

WOW 400K! that is amazing, no wait I forgot it was a Lexus so that is normal. Yeah I loved my 430 but things worked out in the end. I see things worked out for you as well congrats on the CT!
