Default OK, a moment of silence please.. LOL!!!

With me being a trucker, I get to travel all over the mid-west and eastern half of the country so I get to see all types of things. I have probably seen several of you on the highways and not known b/c I could not see a CL sticker. Anyways,,,I found this little "GEM" hiding in the parking lot of one of my customers and had to bring it to your attention. I will let you all have at it, because,,well have at it.......

Paint looks ok (not a color of my preference). Wheels from the late '80s :P. Tint and trim around windows/doors is clean from the distance shown. And like said earlier, "chrome trim looks terrible".

the wheels appear to be stock GS400 wheels.

Looks clean, the color ain't that bad, the fender trim is old school but not that bad either. Maybe he's the original owner from 92!

Hey bro thanks for posting a pic of my car.. just kidding.. but its not as bad as it seems like it'd be.. least its all together, looks like its in good shape.. could be worse.. fender trim just sets it off, but thats removeable..

The spoke pattern made me do a double take as I almost thought they were the ones on my RX.
