My '91 LS is my first car. Although I did get to drive my dad's '67 chevy c/10 show truck for a few weeks before I bought my ls. It drove like a tractor and was horrible on gas but damn I got so many looks/props whenever I drove that truck.

I purchased Legend LS coupe 6sp back in 93 while I was in LA and drive it for almost 5 years without any problem with the car at all. Not a single thing fail to work.

Workmanship is as great as Lexus, and with the car drop 3 inches (neuspeed spring), it still offer very smoot ride. The 230hp 6speed also make Legend faster than LS400 too. Great car, if I have a chance, I will buy it again.

Mr VIP Cars ....

Have you thought to think that the person might be looking to network with peers who have common interest beyond just Lexus?
