At this point, the only thing mechanically wrong with my BMW is that it has a slight oil leak. Estimated @ $600 to fix. THe only other problems are comestic. Even the paint looks good though.

Thanks for the responses guys. Buying from a private seller is a bad idea? I need a place where I can trade my car in. Trust me, I know about expensive to maintain. My 540i has 315,000 miles on it. I can't put it in the shop for less than $300. How much does a Lexus generally cost to work on? ←

Hey guys. I'm currently in the process of trying to buy my first Lexus. I have around $8,000 to spend on the Lexus itself and about $1,000 to customize it. I realize this severely limits the type of Lexus I can buy, however I am really happy with my options. I currently have a 1994 BMW 540i that I love and would not mind having a Lexus around the same year. My question to you guys is, what type of Lexus should I shoot for? I really want a Lexus that has chrome rims, but since I am looking to trade I can't buy from a private dealer, and it is really difficult to find a dealer with a car already with nice wheels. I think rims really set off a Lexus, the problem is I am not even sure I can afford the addition myself. Can nice, chrome wheels be obtained for around $600? Ebay seems to have some nice options. Also, I want to put in a dvd player, since I travel a lot and my gf is constantly bored. Do you guys know any good deals? I can't afford to put that much in to it. My knowledge of the vehicle is limited, so I am looking for you guys for buying recommendations, especially rims and video, even car. Thanks guys, I appreciate it.
