Long story short...we were a 3 Toyota family. I sold my 2003 Celica GTS with the intention of buying a GS350. I had a particular exterior color, interior color and five spoke wheels in mind. I looked for two months, only finding one. It seemed that car didn't exist so I started compromising colors and also moving up in years. Of course, as the cars got newer, the prices got higher and I thought maybe I should be looking at the LS460. Then I found this...



It's a 2010 Sport Edition. I guess it is somewhat limited in production as I don't see many of them. The price was right so I flew to Florida and bought it, then drove it home 11 hours. Seems to be a really nice car. It's a one owner and it's pretty much immaculate. It's been serviced by a Lexus dealer all of it's life. I'm in the middle of cleaning it up to my standards. I bought some wheels for it today along with some other stuff. I will check back as the clean up progresses. I haven't been able to take any pictures since I bought it because it pretty much has been raining non-stop. I want to sell these wheels, so I need to quickly rack up 29 more posts here!

Welcome to Club Lexus!

Congrats on the new car and I wish you good luck with it.

When you have some time, I think you will find some very useful info in the DIY sticky at the top of this forum.

Congrats! Those are prettiest in white.

Edit: I'm a moron who can't read I might be interested in those 19s...

The wheels it came on are awfully perdy. I don't get the desire to spend the money on wheels, especially when a car comes on wheels as perdy as those. To each his own though. Good looking vehicle. And yes, they do look good in white. I'm not partial to many cars in white, but the LS wears it right.

Funny you say this. When I flew down to pick my car up, I was greeted at the showroom entrance by a 2015 LS460 F-Sport Crafted Line edition. I immediately fell in love with the theme. I just didn't care for the 90K price tag. Anyways, the wheels that come on the Crafted Line are exactly like mine except they are gloss black. That is what I ordered. I think they will be perdy too.
