Oh My GOD! NNOOOO Oh GOD
Sat. 2:30 a.m. est. I hear my car alarm going off. I look outside &
see my car completely engulfed in flames. I say to myself this must be a nightmare, this can't be happening! :eek:
I run outside only to see my car explode. The love of my life, my baby GS4 is now totally destroyed. If my car was just stock It would be easier for me to understand what just happened. Last week we had a Club lexus Meet in NY. I was excited to see all the other members & cool lex. cars. I spent my week vacation time working on my car (L-sportline rear, SRT-intakew/race ecu,Ugo roof spoiler, TTE lip, TRD-LSD,PI-TC, TM's,) I even tinted out my 01 tail lenses. I am currently involved in several group buys. I should be getting my Tein Flex,EDFC, Brakes, Tom's 6-piece, & Ugo on Mon.
Now I think I wanna die! Life can be very unfair!
I get the info. from the fire dept. & they say kids lit up 3 dumpsters & 3 cars were torched. God I currently live in a upscale luxury apt. complex. This shouldn't of happened here.
What the hell do I do now? Do I go out & get another GS?
I feel completely numb to what the hell just happened.
It almost makes me feel like not getting a nice car. I mean what the *****! What do I do now?

I don't know what to say, really, but I do share the pain of your loss. I think it likely, as the acute reactions fade a little and the rational part of you is not in such shock, that you'll probably decide to get another GS for the same reasons you bought the first one. But drive the insurance co. rental for now, do the normal things that you have to do (work, etc) and let the hurt in your heart ease.
I'm sorry, brother.
I'm sorry, brother.

WOW!!! That does sound like a nightmare!!!I'm still waiting for you to say April fool's or something...but it's not April. Damn bro, I'm so sorry to hear that. I know that it's hard to even think about starting all over again after you put so much into one already...it's kinda like a girlfriend...you invest time, money, effort and so much love and then when things don't work out after years of hardwork...it's like damn! why bother!! BUt....we move on to bigger and better things...it takes time to start all over again...."Time heals all wounds."
Take it easy bro and you'll be here again showing off even better Mods.

holy ****...I absolutely hate people that do such vandalism. No freaking reason for doing it, yet it destroys what other people work hard for. F***ing sobs..
well, after time you'll get over it. ANd may your next gs be even better.

Paul,
I am really sorry to hear what happened to you car. I feel for you. Nothing is more painful than seeing your hardwork and passion destroyed due to some A..hole's random act of vandalism. I hope they catch those bastards.......
Just wait until you insurance get back to you for the coverage, then you can decide which one you want to go. Hopefully, you will be able to get an another GS and restart your mod project.
Good luck,
Kaju

Definately get another GS! I would also move to a new complex with a security gate or maybe some place where you can choose to have a single car garage as an option.

My love 4 Lexus
I think I'm still in denial. I am gonna sell my 02 M3. I am gonna get a NEW GS. That's right! Lexus for LIFE. God I miss my car!
Now I kinda know how SuperjoeX must have felt after having to leave the Lexus Family. Thanks Alot U guys! Ya make this alittle easier to take. Damn the new GS430 doesn't have E-shift.
Maybe another GS4? My decision is simple, GS is a very unique car
very different from the BMW's. More class & style. My damn car had a lot of personality. Tanks for cheering me up guys.
Yes I do have full coverage. Just got off the phone with the State Farm agent. gonna send out the adjuster mon. They even told me they would cover my mods. ??? I still have all the receipts so hopfully they will keepm there promise! I'll let you guys know how this process goes.

P.S. Hey futureGS Can you send me a pick of my car from the NY CLub Lexus meet for the insurance co. The one with the hood up.
