Default I had more fun today than you did.

Aside of the exhaust (P.I.T.A.) things went pretty smooth.








Things were going pretty well until I had to pull the cherry picker back from the car and I realized.................. I'm facing up hill.

I was pretty screwed at that point so what did I do?


..................I did exactly what you think I did.

This is Leon's old car (Legendary)

Considering I have two SC4's in the driveway that get driven daily, Let's call this an investment.

I had a lot of things, but I grabbed what was closest. If I had walked ten feet further I'd have used a Mercedes with 100 more HP at the wheels, but I only had to go 2 MPH for ten feet.......lol.

Besides, Lexus give you a very nice dropped tow eye that can be used for anything, plus there is a matching one on the other side suitable for mounting a hitch if needed.

Wheres it going?
fifteen feet to the right behind closed doors.
