Seth's 2006 IS-350 Build
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
Maintenance Performed: (I used to work on vehicles as a living for a nice Red Sled shop before I moved to Healthcare prior to the pandemic)
Possible Future Additions:
Photos! I am going to try and place these in order. The "Day 1" photos were lost after my phone was obliterated by a collapsing jack... luckily on a truck and not my Lexus lol.
Week 1 100% Stock!
Week of Suspension Install
After Tein S-Tech install with new Wald Style Rear Spoiler
6 months after suspension settled. Rear fenders lightly rolled- zero rub.
Megan Racing Strut Tower Braces
New Rear Diffuser with LED
Covering Dash with Alcantara!
...Ill be uploading more soon! Just getting a little sleepy.
