Hey team!

I purchased my first Lexus this last year, and have slowly started to "build" it. I purchased it after selling a 2001 Toyota Sequoia that I built, and my selling price on that was a little higher than what I got this guy for!

Purchase Price: $6,000
Owners: 1 (I am the second one!!!). He used it as a company car and his daily commuter since he purchased it new from a local Lexus dealership here in Texas.
Service History: I have all service records up until 55,000 mile mark. The previous owner stated that once warrantied services expired, he used local shops for oil changes.
Title Status: CLEAN
