I feel your joy. I too just got my first Lexus. Its a 92 about a month ago. Silver. Wasn't really looking for one but always wanted one. This place is a great resource for info. Doubt i will dress it up like most others just plan on leaving it close to stock. Have done minor upgrades. Speakers for one since all doors had been blown. Sub is in working order. Just waiting for my dash to return from BBReman. Well anyway its Great to have a LS.
While I am a former Honda guy, and still an enthusiast, I would normally argue your last comment, however after owning this vehicle and experiencing it, I totally agree. Honda's technology has always impressed me, and I've always put them above every other company, but after owning the LS for a while, I have a whole new respect for Toyota. I can hardly believe the car was built way back in 1991. ****, I am more than amazed by the technology and engineering put into this car considering the age.
Much much love to Toyota.

you dont know the half of it, over a billion was sunk into r&d for this car (f-1) and it took several years of research before the thing ever came out. In 1990 they had massaging rear seats/curtains/gps... truly ahead of its time. In the US we got jipped we didnt get the UL goodness until 2002 iirc?

Welcome to CL 1DIRTY1LS. I was also a Honda lover as well, I had a 90 Accord EX and loved that car. Imo to this day the best cars from the early 90's that are the most abundant on the road today are the 90-93 Accord and 90-94 LS. This is based on overall amount and the amount compared to their direct competition. The shape of the 90-93 Accord is timeless and was so ahead of it's time back then. Once I drove my Dads 94 LS I was instantly a Lexus man from there on. Good luck with your new love. Oh yeah, Megan coilovers all the way.
