Well i havent put pics up of my car in a while, i think a year, so before i leave my car and go off to college, i figured i'd drive it to lake placid take a few pics, and take a few pics after when i got home. Its bone stock beside some kyb struts, stock height, tinted windows, led license plate lights, piaa fog lights, hid's 6000k, and a hardwired radar detector

Sorry for the crappy pics, from an iphone, didnt really plan doing this, jsut realized i wont have a car for a whole year and its a ****ty realization. Any criticism, comments, compliments, they'd be appreciated.
On a sidenote, i plan on buying a black on tan 1999 ls400 black on tan with full dealer service history with 169k miles for 4800 then possibly fixing up small stuff and cleaning up cosmetics such as buffing and fogging headlights and trying to flip it, or at least drive it some or let my mom drive it and sell it later on, any opinions?

the ls could be a tricky sale sounds like a good deal to keep, sometimes peope are tricky on buying cars with over 130k or so.. id say its worth a shot though . worst case scenario you get "stuck" with it and i wouldnt mind getting stuck with that haha

^ Ya it needs to be buffed, headlights cleared, and part of a new muffler or seal on the right side, everything else is good and the timing belt has been changed, and it's a smokers car, i feel like if i wear to keep it i would definitely get it, but to flip it, those cars around here are very rare and sell for about 8 grand, so idk
http://buffalo.craigslist.org/cto/2505715932.html this is it, i went to look at it and looked up the service records at lexus.com which are up until 2009. After that the car went to arizona with a person who retired from wherever metro lexus is, which explains the foggy headlights. It was brought back here and is being sold by a place that specializes in shipping cars, the owner of the company picked it up in arizona a year ago and has been driving it until now

We will see on the ls, im trying to see if its worth spendign the 5 something grand ive saved up to spend upfront. As to the es, the radio is stock, one thing i wanted to note, the es fogs were never very good, so i go the idea of the forums here, soemone asked how they would work if the capsules in the fog light were taken out, well i took them out and the yellow fogs are much more effective with still a good cutoff and no glare
