Hi Rebecca and welcome to the Club ! Well, luckily, you missed the fall vaccination drive to prevent us from making impractical decisions, but save us from missing one of the great joys in life. The

Word of Mouth, just bought a used Lexus and this is the right place for me, where we have people discussing something in my concern. We have very few Lexus LS400 here in Nairobi, so this is the closes

As usual i am always wondering about things and today it is what brought you to the LOC community .

Did you hear about us through word of mouth , Google or another search engine or another Lexus club?

I just recently purchased a 2001 LS 430 (79K miles) and came across the forum when doing some searches for accessories. I have read through many of the posts and I am really excited about the amount of mileage some of these cars are racking up. Makes me feel like my car isn't even broken in yet. The dealer is fixing some things up for me before I accept delivery, hopefully Friday.

I was planning to buy a 1998 LS 400 and started looking info about how bad or good the cars were and found this site and the UK one which is very good also. I started reading everything and joined. I will never regret it!

I am in the market for a new car and thought a Lexus would be perfect for my taste. I also wanted to learn more about the car before I decided to purchase it.

I happened upon this site right after I bought my second Lexus, the LS. I knew that the LS had made automotive history in its debut and wanted to find out more info to further fuel my passion for the marque. In actuality I also became a member of a great community, rich with knowledge and information and rich with an eagerness to help eachother and rib eachother from time to time. :D Rock on LOC :cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

Nice I was part of the majority reason for finding this forum! My dash had started making a rattling sound that was present going over bumps. Seems like there was a TSB released for this very issue for almost all model lines. Took it into the dealer on Queens, NY. They seemed to have improved the issue, but there is still a rattle present. Hesitant to bring it in again however....

Well, guess I'll have to make a call and see if they can try something else this time around!

I found this site because I am looking at purchasing a 2009 Lexus RX350 and have been doing online research.

I love Toyota but want to upgrade to Lexus :D

post-66782-1205473092_thumb.jpg I found this site because I just purchased a 99 SL400 and know very little about it.

I'm a starving artist (see attachment) currently working on paintings for Mercedes Benz showrooms across America.

Since they wouldn't barter a car for my efforts, I found a sweet deal on the Lexus and LOVE IT!

Want a painting of your car? Let me know. I'm very reasonable. See more work at artxp.com Search by artist and find G Linderman.

Love the site. Have learned tons already.

Thanks!

I just bought a 2006 SC430 from Seattle and brought it up to Vancouver. I tried to register on the official Canadian Lexus site but they would not accept me because the car has a US VIN#. I then tried the US official site but they would not accept me because I have a Canadian address.

I know Lexus is trying to stop the movement of it's cars from US to Canada but I think it is pretty short sighted of them not to allow me to register the car.

I am not really new to LOC, just to the USA - Canada 1.

Was a member of the South African LOC until it strangely disappeared, then went and joined the UK LOC.

Now I am here too and I found an ex SA LOC member here too....

Thank God for LOC.

The dealer had it's way with me one too many times, same for the indies which say they know what they're doing but --- shock!--- don't.

I came here in self defense mode.

Glad I did.

I've already saved a bunch of $$$, and many hours of lexus runaround time. The lexus badge doesn't always mean you have unlimited funds, and/ or time to !Removed! around with the dealership cult/ groupies/ followers, or devoted employees.

As Einstien once proved; [Time={money squared}X frustration cubed] ..... Or something like that.

Uh,

yeah, that's what I meant....

The guys here are a great group, and a huge braintrust.

Cheers!

Hello everybody,

I'm new to the site (1st post) but not new to personal auto repair and upgrades.

I've been fixing up vehicles since I was a kid.

I had to learn, my first vehicle (beyond the Dart) was a Pinto. :lol:

My wife and I purchased a 1993 SC400 about 2 weeks ago and have been enjoying it ever since.

My wife is enjoying the freshly tinted windows and the power over our Montana.

I thought it was a good buy at $4k with 160k miles, and so far after reading some of these threads it seems we haven't done too bad on the deal. Kellys BB agrees with this somewhat. Online resources have proven to be invaluable for our small fleet. I stumbled across this forum looking for service manuals and discovered the thread on...service manuals.

We are also member of www.Turbobuick.com and www.Jeepforum.com.

We also own an 87 Buick Grand National, an 87 Jeep Wrangler, a 99 Montana (nice for a minivan), and a 99 Grand Am.

Just sold an 86 Ranger.

We are looking forward to some good service out of our SC.

With the help of good folks around here, I shouldn't be a problem.

See you in the technical pages!

:cheers:
