I havn't posted here in a long time:
Alright so my 1994 LS out here in Arizona, drove it from houston, was totaled a week ago. I was going 50mph and a lady fails to yield making an unprotected left turn infront of me at an intersection. I hit her she tails spin and I hit the curb then street light pole<thats what totaled the engine>. She was cited by the police and I was pretty lucky that I was driving such a safe car I walked away pretty much unharmed expcept for some cuts on my arm and some body pain. Insurance paid $8gs for it<est repair cost were over $12gs> it had about 110,000 miles on it and the only problem it ever had was the left driver side window motor stoped working. I have looked at a 1999 benz slk and some other cars but after that I'm now pretty sure im going to stick with a lexus. Since insurance didn't pay anything extra for the sound system I went to the lot and got the jl subs and to mtx amps. I will probably go back and tear out all the speakers since they were expensive and could be used hopefully in the new LS. I'm going to take pictures of it when I go back.

Here are some old pictures of it from like 2 yrs ago with out clear turn signals







The LS 400's locally near me that im checking out this week are as follows<all private sellers>:
1998 Gold 110,000 1 owner: 13,000

1998 Green 88,000 2nd owner: 12,900

1998 Silver 128,000 freeway miles 2nd owner :11,000


Also if anyone knows of a good lexus for sale in either the Phoenix,AZ area or Houston,TX let me know!

 

prices seem fairly good for the mileage but id def have the cars checked out by local dealers along with a carfax.

i was in a similar accident in my LS, got any damage pics?

 

Here are the pictures today I took with my cell phone.









I just got back from checking out the green one, it's in perfect condition at a fair price. He bought the clear bumpers from luxurymods. The paint in monotone which is also a nice touch along with the limo tint all the way around. I'm very happy!

Can anyone tell me if the speakers from the 94 ls will fit in the 98? If so Im going to go back to the lot and take all the infinity speakers out.

 

that looks nasty for sure

at least ur car didnt lose coolant/acid/oil/blood/pus/etc...

i miss my '95

 

Ya it looks like you got a nasty side hit? Did you get hurt? I had center impact right in the engine, good thing it was so large it saved my life. I havn't posted here in along time, looks like I should add RIP in my signature like you.It looks like you upgraded to a 1999 after that

 

oncoming tundra made an illegal left turn. i tried to brake/turn but no way i coulda missed.

the pass. airbag went off so hard that it cracked the **** outta the windshield.

Ya it looks like the same thing happened to me except the other car wasn't a truck it was some small random 4 door. I looked at the links I'm trying to find one with photos of your ride now lol.

edit found it lol

 

I'd check out the silver one if I were you.

Those are some nasty hits. I'll show mine later when I get home. I wrecked my 98 about a year and a half ago. I now have a 99.

 

The silver gives it a newer look since it is a popular color among newer cars.

The other two colors are a little too conservative for my tastes.

 

Here it is, has limo tint all the way around, only 88,000miles looks new in and out.With the HID lights not sure if that is standard on all 98's. Going to talk to him today and make him an offer.

 

I'm a big fan of dark green cars. Once it gets a full detail, it just looks luxurious and classy!

 

I agree with the dark green selection, but I could be bias because my 93 is that color

 

HID, wood/leather shift ****+steering wheels, navi, A/S, and seat heaters were all options in 98.

the A/S is nearly unfindable in the US 98+.

Navi is kinda pointless, more trouble than its worth

HIDs + wood/leather bits became standard in the US in 99.

 

Heres my ole 98 from back in the day. Studying too hard for a couple nights in a row can lead to bad things...Can you guess what happened?

That was my favorite car, I wish I still had it. I loved the Silver.

 

Those are some nasty hits...
