Remember me?

I picked up the old girl on Friday after an EXCRUCIATING 5 and a half months in the shop (new block and radiator :censored: ). I am yet to pay my repair bill of $2909.11 because the mechanic was on lunch when I got there.
As I strolled out to hop it, I was met with a variety of fun new problems. The engine was dropped on the bumper and a small gash was left (damage is being paid for by mechanic), my passenger side headlight is full of water (probably not shops fault), my drivers side window doesn't roll up, I STILL have a bearing squeaking, he didn't fix the parking brake, and it doesn't seem to be shifting right when I get to about 20 mph.
I go tomorrow for new tires and an alignment, and I have an appointment to get my bumper fixed and I'm looking for two new headlights now. The bearing is getting checked out this week too. I managed to fix my radio problems today, so at least I have some tunes on to drown out the sound of the irritating squeak.
I know that these are really great cars. This one might be a dud, or maybe the last owner just ran this into the ground. I don't want my problems to scare anybody away from getting one, but just remember this:
The fun just never stops when you drive a Lexus ;)
PLEASE, tell me what you think about the bill and the the current problems. As always, INPUT IS MUCH APPRECIATED!!!
