Did you already red out the orange on the rear lights?

Actually its the other way around, you can raise the car up 1.5" 4x4 style when you have a heavy load in it or need the clearance. You need to get a datasystems air controller to lower it below 'normal'.

What was the 'gift' the delivery person gave you?

I was just reading in a thread that you can adjust the bolts and it will lower the car up to 1.5"... am I misreading?

Very nice and love the Lexus LS430!!

You can get the Datasystem from Japan:

The controller is very handy and you can lower / raise the height of the car with a press of a button

Woah.!!!!

When did you sell the SC?
Why did you sell the SC?
I understand the Jag......but

Althought I really do love the 430.!!!

Congrats on the New ride....I bet it was tough to let the SC go......but you took a nice step forward.!!!

And you could always get another.

As much as I still don't like FORDS, my lady just bought a new Jag X-type AWD tonight after much pleading with her to go to the Mercedes side of the lot.

So I guess I can't get away from these damn things.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...wheww.. HAHAH

ok..

What was her reasoning behind the purchase? Also, why a new one? I would never buy a new one because of it's MASSIVE hit when driving off the lot.

Hey, I don't know why, but women LOVE the X-Types. I've had people almost lose arms trying to stick it inside my door when closing it JUST to see the inside.

Most of my friends like the Lexus much more BUT they really liked the Jaguar also (not knowing about it's Ford roots)

I sold the car about a month ago to Spoiledkid in LA. He has some pics of it that he posted a while back.

I sold it because I had the Jag. and wasn't driving the SC very often to avoid putting high miles on it.

When are we going to have a Texas meet? lol
