Default Wanted to say hello

Hey folks,

Just picked up an 04 LS430 last week with Nav, bt, rear view camera and pos ML stereo. Wanted to say hello. So far, plans are just to upgrade wheels and tires, and upgrade a few stereo components. I also own a Honda S2000 and Toyota 4runner. Just wanted to add a comfortable, lux car to the stable and have always been a fan of the 04-06 LS.

Heres a pic of my new girl

Congrats and welcome to the board. I joined recently and the archives here have been indispensable for me.

Good luck with the mods.

Cheers,

The HIDs on the S are quite good as well, and in terms of sheer light output theyre pretty close, with the nod going to the LS overall. But when you add in the AFS system to the LS lights, it becomes a no contest. Ive never driven or owned a car with headlights anywhere near as illuminating as this car. They really are outstanding.

Black interior.
