Default Just bought my 1st Lexus (94 LS400)

Hi everyone, I just bought me first Lexus on the 13th and figured this would be a great site for me to join! I've only had my car for a few days now and I love it! I drives like a dream and can't believe all the options this car has for the year. I went from a 1999 Saab 9-3 SE Turbo to the LS400 and I am enjoying the Lexus far more then the Saab! It only has 127K on it and its in great condition. The only small problem is it has the check engine light on, im thinking probably an O2 sensor or maybe the EGR valve, we'll see... I hope to gain a lot of valuable information as well as give some back in the months and years to come! So other then that just wanted to say hi to everyone!

take it to autozone and get the code checked for free!

Welcome to the forum, post a picture if you want. These cars are amazing.

Congrats on the pick-up and welcome to CL!! lets see some pictures.

I love my LS - every time I drive my car I am truly amaze w/ all the features and smoothness of it. Considering the fact I was only 8 years old when the LS debut and to this day it is still performing like a champ
