Pics I Promised


Silver Surfer!

Recommended Posts


I think the '04-'06 LS400 is my favorite. (Maybe I got the years wrong). I think it looks so elegant and stately!

Yes those years are correct. They really put their foot in this redesign! I still like mid to late 90's LS. That was the one that really got me hooked in LS's.

Thanks to all the complements fellas! :cheers: To SWO, the experience at rockville was ok although when i gave them the check for the car it was actually to much so i supposed to see a refund check but nothing yet in about a month so off to the dealer i go to find out whats the deal! Other than that its been cool. Ill probably will take it to the lexus dealer in alexandria or to LXT in rockville for service. Do you have any recommendations for our area?

I use Nelson an LXT Automotive. Tell him Steve Withrow sent you...I'm taking the ES to him tomorrow actually.

Used to have it serviced at Rockville until my service guy left...was always happy.

Will do! Im wondering if taking it to LXT as opposed to taking it the dealer will have a negative affect on the resale standpoint when or if i decide to sell it in the future. I know that Lexus can track services if done at their dealers but what about Lexus speacialist like LXT? Will i have to just keep the records myself to show a potential buyer?

Nelson was a Lexus master tech for 12 years at Lexus of Silver Spring. I don't know whether he enters the records into the Lexus mainframe or not...my guess is no. Just keep the records, I have a big file with every record since the car was brand new...you can bet when I finally do sell this car, that will carry a lot of weight with the buyer.

Plus, if you sell it locally they can always call and talk to Nelson, and they get a built in mechanic who knows the car. The savings are huge, I had the 135k service done today at a cost of $112 which would have easily been $250 at the dealer...

If I were the buyer I wouldn't care that you had the work done at an outside independent Lexus specialty shop as long as you had the records...

Thanks for advice. Gonna give Nelson a call or visit sometime next week and i'll make sure to mention that you refered me. With cars that's upscale as these are, its good to network with people for advice and being that we live in the same city is a real plus! :cheers:
