Default holy ****e, all these LS430'S rollin around!

man these cars are every where now. everytime i see one parked i have to peek inside of it. i must of seen like 5or6 this past week they were all stock but they look freekin bad *** to me. i cannot wait to see a few that are all dressed up. my friends are making fun of me because they say it puts my 400 to shame, but i say well look at your Altima. this past tuesday night i could not stop looking inside of this guys white one that was stop at the light next to me. the guy thought i was weird or something. hey i could not help it navagation screen and stuff to be noisy about all shining bright in the night. i also notice that the RPM on the LS 430 goes to 9 or maybe even ten i think and so the light turn green and he sped off i was trying to catch up but i think the guy was scared of me or something any ways i probably would not have caught up because that baby was fast. but i want one and i really really want one.
man my jaw is still on the floor!

Default LS430

Yes, the LS430's are nice cars. The interiors are simply awesome...but then again, I have Nav and the Mark Lev system and I've smoked every LS430 that's attemped to race me (I have GS430) so I don't feel so bad Plus the GS's interior isn't exactly painful.

But I've seen some NICELY done up LS430's online and in Japanese VIP magazines...Wald, AutoCouture, Exclusive, etc., all have nice body kits for the car. Put some AutoCouture Supreme's in 20 on a LS, lower it, body kit...mmmmm...tasty!

Something like this (but withOUT the chrome and in Blue Onyx Pearl...)

Default hell yeah GS!

yes Manaray I like the GS, it is my favorite car out of all the Lexus models.If i had the patience to save my money for one more year I would have have gotten a GS 400, but damn two years of saving paychecks and not using them, i could not wait, so i just bought the LS, but i think the GS is the ****.

Wow Stephen, it only goes to 8000rpm like the LS 400's that's suprising.

edogg,

I think I'm showing my age, but your comment used to mean a negative thing, but it must be postive since you like the GS. Have fun with your LS.

It wont, your problems are very atypical. Any luck with Lexus?

Mr. Di Tullo,

I'm sorry to hear about your car's troubles. I know that in Europe, Japanese cars arent' very popular, so it would be more difficult to have your car's problems carefully looked at.

This "flying engineer" who looked at your car seems a bit suspect. I would suggest that you direct your problems to Lexus USA for some suggestions. They have a toll-free number that you could call. Their customer assistance is extremely helpful and may be of good use to you.

That number is 011.1.800.25.53987

In the US, that number is 1-800-25-LEXUS.

I hope someone could give you advice on how to fix your problems.
