Default New LS430 owner :D

Hey guys, not new to the forum by any means. I have a few Lexus's currently, and this will be my 3rd LS chassis!

My GS300 build thread can be found here: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/gs-...-bippu147.html


My 1st LS chassis
Junction Produce Widebody Celsior (yes that's me in the VIP Style article)









My 2nd LS chassis
98 LS400 - My winter beater

Don't really have any pics of it, but it's the in right corner of this pic lol






[img]I'll be making a 3hr drive in the next couple of days to pick up this car:












It's a 2001, Ultra Premium package. Canadian car. Factory air suspension, heated / reclining / massaging rear seats, 2 previous owners.

I'm super stoked on the car, and I made my first mod purchase today:

Wheels will be ordered the day after I pick it up.

The new LS looks great! Your other cars look good too. Is that your Supra as well?

Best interior color combo ever. Not sure why Lexus quit doing the black wood with the ecru. Congrats!

A UL without Nav. I don't think this was available in the states.
Fantastic!

PLEASE dont do to the 430 what you did to the older LS from your first post. It didnt do anything to deserve such a cruel fate.

Im not sure what youre basing that on. He mentioned at least one of the Supras he sold. The garage seems to have the Tupperware car and a later LS in it, both of which can thankfully be had on the cheap these days, as can the 01-03 430s.
