Default I just bought me another 1999 LS400

Well I am going to sell my 2000 Sienna.(sold it). I just have to have a 99 LS again. This time I have bought a Black one with a Tan interior, it has 228k on it, but I got it for 4800$. The owner cant afford to replace the timing belt & WP, but me and my nephew can do that. here it is:

Nice pickup and the seats are in really good condition. I swear most cars this old and with that many mile the seats just look horrible.

How many other LS's did you see till you came across this one? What is the condition of the others generally speaking?

Congrats!

I saw several nice low milage units, but they were out of my $$ range. I went and looked at two others, one just turned me off and I didnt even open the door, the other I drove and liked it until he pulled out a salvage title, then this one and his master key is broke and hard to start the car, and he was talking 200$ plus for another one (guess he never heard of ebay) and timing/pump operation at 1200$ & up, so he wanted out, and I helped him get out...
