Hi my name is cory i bought my first lexus at my buddy's impound lot. 2200 for it and at the time i didnt know what this car had to offer. Until i opened the hood and seen a 4 cam 32 valve v8 glaring at me. I got it for $1400 it was rough.. the idle was really low. AC blew hot. no radio. Low on coolant. It sat in that impound lot for 8 months do to waiting for the title to come in. Anyways since then iv rewired the whole stereo system put a cheap poineer deck in it. recharged the AC. put all new fluids in it. cleaned throttle body bought new battery. Fixed odd ball stuff as well. I bought it with 3 sporza saga 20's and im unemployed and cant afford the other 20 for now. but i hope i can get stock wheels for it soon. This explains why the 16 is on the car in the pic... anyways thats me and i love cars iv owned 20 cars so far and this one is the best yet.

Well i want to get all the dent's out and repaint it. Also fix the door panels....iv owned turbo eclipses with a couple grand in them and the build quality compared to i suppose any lexus is just childish lmao. the sunroof when tilted doesnt rattle. The road noise is so bad in eclipses and the lexus is so much better at alot of things. iv had alot of people tell me to do a 5 speed swap and honestly i dont really want to since i like just cruising but i plan on getting a later model later on then i will go 5 speed on this one. The sc300 is so much cheaper and easier to mod then the v8. i want the straight 6 but then again the v8 is a great motor... im never getting rid of this car for real. i would love a supercharger for it. It will have to wait until i get another job... I hope arizona has some ample amount of people that go to meets.

Sounds great man i agree with the eclipse deal. I only went to one meet then a car show. Its frustrating trying to cruise or hang with anyone these days... You got a nice car also! Like i said before the quality that the eclipses have are nothing compared to lexus. It may be a bad comparison to most.
