Default FS/FT - 1995 Lexus LS400, 164k, $4800

So I've had my car on local craigslist for a while, and havent gotten much attention other than people trying to scam me...so I figured I'd put it on here. I'll be upfront and tell you that I don't have anyone to vouch for me or have that many posts, mostly because I'm more of a reader than a writer...that being said if the mods feel it necessary to delete this thread - no hard feelings. If anyone local feels especially generous and wants to come by and look at the car and vouch I'm not gonna tell you no. Also, I am 19...I've seen people refuse to deal with teenagers...so I don't want to surprise anyone here.


Since this might get deleted, I'm not going to put the time and effort into uploading pictures, but the link for the cl ad is here - http://charlotte.craigslist.org/cto/2405190677.html

Full album with more pics than the ad -

(the stuff in the floor of the car is pennies, I was trying to pay a parking meter and dropped them everywhere)


A quick summary about the car and whatnot
1995 LS400 with 164 thousand miles and rising (daily driver/only car).
Asking $4800, somewhat firm here, but reasonable offers will be entertained
Located in Charlotte, NC - cash and pickup only, I will not ship or accept other forms of payment, except for trades (see ad)
Clean Title in hand
Car is silver on the exterior and grey/dark blue on the interior.
Paint is in exceptional condition, save for a few scratches/dings here and there, but it is a 16 year old car...
Interior Leather is in good condition, save one small tear (See below)
Car is in excellent mechanical condition, since I've owned it I've only had to replace the alternator and battery.
I have tons of service records and receipts, most of which come from local dealership.

Five issues worth noting
1. Small tear at seam in the top of the back seat drivers side (I would assume due to combo of age/sun)
2. Some funny looking colors in the driver side mirror, only noticeable when looking at the glass itself, not when you're using it to drive. (if that makes sense)
3. Couple scratches on the rear bumper where previous owner backed into something and the dents fixed and then buffed
4. Hood has been repainted from an accident (previous owner)
5. The instrument cluster has fallen victim to the notorious speedo/tach failure, but it only happens in hot weather and a light smack on that dash makes them come back to life until you turn the car off and let it sit for a couple hours.

No of these things require repair and being in college and poor I can't justify paying for them.

Thats about it...I welcome opinions on the price from those who aren't interested in buying. I based it off KBB and similar LS's on the market.

No one is interested because that price is very high for that car.
