akewlguy Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 Well I was driving home and I noticed my LEXUS passed the 95000 miles. I have owned this car for 3 months and it is the best purchase of my life! I love this car and just spent about 300 bucks on cleaning, buffing and polishing materials. After buying this great car I put about 2.5k into wheels, cover, tires, plate, taxes, tint, MP3 transmitter and other minor additions. The LS is fast, sleek and smooth. The performance is awesome! This car likes to cruise at 75-80 and with the big V-8 getting over 20MPG how can I complain. After driving a Taurus and Contour for years my wife and I enjoy going to places in style. It makes me laugh when my insurance is $400 and taxes are $300 bucks. I feel like I am getting away with something. Makes me laugh when someone I know has a $1800 in sales tax, $400 car payment, $1800 yearly tax payment and a yearly insurance payments of $1500 on a new Taurus or Altima. Living life with this LEXUS makes sense and is so relaxing. Knowing that you have no car payment and the car is going to last is a wonderful feeling. In fact this experience has been so wonderful that I will buy a 98LS next year. What can I say I would like to have two.

Dust Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 You're certainly right. My experience with this car was nothing but a joy ride. I will be certainly upgrading when the time is right, and keeping this one because I enjoy it just like you or any other person here. Work like you don't need the money, love like you've never been hurt, and dance like you do when nobody's watching. ^ Great quote, I'll remix it a little. Work like you don't need money but spend all your money on the Lexus, Love the Lexus like your girl, and tango with your car so others can turn heads and applaud. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leot Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 Jeez, my LS is 6 years old and my insurance is over $1300. I have no accidents and no points and have been with Liberty Mutual for 35 years. We don't pay auto property taxes in New Jersey. I drive about 3500 miles a year (geezer) leot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW03ES Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 Your insurance is that high because you live in NJ. With only a couple insurance companies to choose from because of state requirements they're free to gouge you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SW03ES Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 Geico has been in NJ for a while now. The issue is that with all the fees and hassles of doing buisiness as an insurance co. In NJ companies don't want to bother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
