We should make a "SCDON'T" section and make this interior the 1st customer. I have to say I like the rims though.

If we send him a link to this thread, in order for him to read it he would have to sign up for CL, and we don't want someone who does that to their car(s) joining our club......


Just my 2 cents

I don't car how fast it is that dash is hurting my eyes. People actually think that Gucci crap is nice in cars?

Sad thing is there is some guy looking at that and drooling right now.

Ouch..

The rims look nice because they are a simple 5spoke design with a lip. Even if a wheel is a little cheaper (like Zenetti) that is a hard recipe to mess up. What's sad is, the wheels and NOS are a good start to a decent car, not a CL showstopper, but one we all could respect. Someone photoshop those wheels onto SC400s lowered gold coupe to see what I mean! This dude just went in the totally WRONG direction! (I'm talking driving headon into oncoming traffic

The wheels *look* nice because they are rip offs of the WEDS Kranze Cerebus with a fake 2-piece look.

so THATS what wheel they copied it off of!!! I kept hearing people call it a BR5 knockoff, but to me, it looks nothing like the Lowenhart!

It is cheaper and a knockoff but from a aesthetic standpoint they are nice. build quality, craftmanship, etc could probably NEVER come close to a HRE or iforged, but they can take a NYC pothole!! My little brother has them in 19x8.5w235/35-19 on his 95 Avalon!

"Customized V8 powerful race engine."

Where would the mods be? Underneath the dirt and crud??? Or is the dirt & crud the mods??

Right now, I'm getting a large stick. I am going to find this person because they need a stupid beating. Anyone with me??

"The Ultimate lexus"

If this is the ultimate Lexus, I'll just have to be satisfied with my "less than ultimate Lexus" thank you.

Seriously....is that wall paper on the dash?

The engine looks like it came from a yard that was sitting out in the elements for a while. Something tells me the engine blew and this was the replacement.

I think this guy owned a honda in a previous life, or just has unidentifiable issues after watching the fast and the furious.

I wonder if he has a big red button on his steering wheel for the "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSSS"

Not necessarily. Anyone can hop on to CL and read the forums. And besides, everyone is welcome at CL.

Speakin of engine cosmetic wear, mine is showing some light oxidation here and there on the top of the block, (right valve cover with the "4-cam ...." script still looks fantastic), but the top of the block near the lexus emblems starting to show it. How can you remove that stuff?

In the interest of a mint-looking engine compartment.
