When you get stopped getting gas in your 15 year old, 3 weeks dirty car, only to be told "really nice car!".

Happened about 15 mins ago actually.

^^^wrong post buddy..

you know you drive an LS when...

- you park your car and look at it like 10 times while walking to your destination

- when you make all the windows go down with the KEY

- when people look at your like your big *** luxury car isn't fast and you burn them on the interstate, at the stop light, in the park, anywhere, and they see nothing but your brake lights...

that's when you know you have an LS

Yeah, that won't work on the 95-97s.

When my parent brag to their friends that their son drives a lexus (ofcourse they don't tell them the year)....

When my mom tells askes me if I wanna trade my lexus for her explorer.... or if ill sell it to her, for WAY less than what I got it for... lol, just gotta buy her one some day...

When u get looks for people that can be your grandparents like, WTF!?!?!?..... I love those ones....

(Before I installed the drop springs) I would drive with the a/c on, tinted windows, music not too loud, and I would become ver tired cuz it felt so smooth going down the road....

I find it interesting that you swore to never buy another Lexus again, said that Lexus cars are crap, etc, but you still have not left this forum. At least stay in the car chat forum or something.

actually PD... the actual area of the backseat due to the backrests and arm rests makes it actually smaller than a 1998 gs400. Not as big as it seems.

believe me lol

I like these:



Mercedes owners are still in awe/anguish/disgust over your 16 year old car
that is still runing in better shape than their 4 year old car.

After you shut off other cars, you wait a second expecting the steering wheel to get out of the way.

When every other car you ride in is: too loud, too uncomfortable, and too slow!

When your 9 year old interior is in better condition than your friend's 2 year old car.

You know you are an ls owner when you would rather take your lunch break inside your LS than go out with co-workers.
