akewlguy Posted June 27, 2005 Share Posted June 27, 2005 93 LS400 (from owner) 6900 REGISTRATION (Sales Tas) 250 WHEELS AND TIRES (17") 1500 TINT 155 TAXES (2005) WINTER TIRES 500 BUMPER LIGHT ASSEMBLY (White) 40 TOTAL: $9345 XENONS 250 DASH LIGHTS (Cold darkness) 250 SPEEDOMETER & TACH 0 STICK 300? AUTO DETAIL 200 COMPUTECH SECURITY SYSTEM 400 RADAR DETECTOR 100 GPS SOFTWARE (PDA) 155 TOTAL:$11000 As a new owner for a month now I just thought it was interesting how much money I am spending. More or less I bought this LEXUS knowing I wanted to spend a few thousand to make it exactly what I want. Wife is starting to question the wheels and stuff, but I know its worth it.. I bought a gem and made it into a diamond for less then 10k. Today was kewl I am at Bolling AFB and this 2 star general had a 97 coach. NICE CAR.. I was walking around checking it out and he came out side. I was like nice LEXUS I have a similar 93. The guy was so proud and stated "Great car.. Its a great car!" He was anxious to see my LEXUS and said nice LEXUS. I am always amazed by the positive responce from LEXUS owners! ?I WONDER IF MY 17" wheels with 225/55 will effect the LEXUS ride? Cheers to LEXUS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akewlguy Posted June 27, 2005 Author Share Posted June 27, 2005 I would have loved to get a 95-06, but I did not want to have debt.. So I did what I have to do!! At least for 2 more years then I will hopefully be in a position to get what ever I want! I met this one guy on EBAY and they supply a year warentee "no questions asked." He seems to be fair and is backed by a solid company for $250 bucks. So I am going to go with slight tint 8k. 5k is pure white and then 6k is nearly pure white. Good luck!

agc Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 Nice wheels, I am also in the process of changing my stock 16" wheels also (I have a 2000 LS400 in silver). I think I have decided on the ASA ST3, but now trying to decide between silver and chrome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
