  1. Man, I love dark green. Because it is basically two colors. From, a distance and night its BLACKcome close in light and its GREEN.
  2. So, thats roughly around $400 worth of repairs. Bigo: How many miles do you have on your Lex?
  3. If everything is good with good maintance record. Then for $6,500 thats a steal. btw: Isn't there a 120k service that needs to be done later??[i bought mine at 146k, so I don't know much about this service].
  4. Thanks. Guess what? You are right. When I bought the car the dealer told me the color was Taupe. I didn't even knew what Taupe looks like! But, he was half was correct. I just register at www.acura.com; and the interior is called Taupe but the exterior is: Vineyard Gray Metallic.
  5. Sorry to hear that. Unless, the body plan was changed a tad bit to fit the new bumper for the 97', I'm guessing a machanic can fit it in.
  6. TexasLexus94: Oh yeah, did you take pics of them before you sent them in. I see that you took pics of your car, do you have any pics of the car from the back, so we can see the Before&After.
  7. You are right. I totally forgot about the time! We don't exactly know, because we left it at the shop at 11:30am in the morning then took it back at 4:00pm in the noon; I didn't ask, and don't know neither. Well, the next person who reads this can guess how much it would take to replace it and just guess a general estimate of it. :)
  8. Are you disagreeing with the V8 emblem or just having fun with Chrysler???? If so, why?
  9. ***I don't think you will have to worry about this, since the miles are so low but just look at it when you drive it again: Test drive it. Drive it on the Highway at speeds of 60-70mph and see if there is any vibration. Then go up to 90mph and see who smooth the ride is. Go over bumps or rough roads with the windows down, and see if you hear any clucking noise when you go over the bumps. The LCD of the temp/clock starts to blacken in the Gen. I LSs. It starts out by very little exposure then later the whole thing turns black. Here is pinned topic about it: http://us.lexusownersclub.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=83& ____________________________________________________________________ Go here: http://www.kbb.com/kb/ki.dll/kw.kc.sp?kbb....;Lexus;LS%20400 And tell us what the book value is for Private party and retail too. Since, we don't know the correct options and condition of the car. Here is a link that will tell you more about the 1990 LS400: http://www.edmunds.com/used/1990/lexus/ls4...title..1.Lexus* Also, go to the below site and see what else is available in your area [so you have something to compare it with: http://www.cars.com/search/used/cc/standar...ml?aff=national Also, gas prices are a issue so...: http://www.fueleconomy.gov/!Removed!/findacar.htm Unless someone is giving a car away to a charity. You wouldn't find a cheap car with good maintance record. These are high-end imports; and the parts and labor are very very $$costly$$ which will destory your wallet, unless you are a DIYer. So, maintance record and how much stuff you have to replace & repair after the purchase, is a real BIG factor in price. ;) You can call your local Lexus dealer and give them the cars VIN number to check to see if the car has been serviced by a Lexus dealer in any part of the country. Also, they can check the car and tell you what needs to be replaced, repaired or any other necessory things need, but for a small $.
  10. I don't think this will work, but worth a try. Because one year has a real big difference [in thousands] in these cars.
  11. I bought mine at 146,000 miles. So, I don't know the exact answer to this. But there is a costly 90k service that you have to fullfil.
  12. It is very very difficult to find a LS400 with 90K on it, for this price.
  13. The picture that you loaded as the avator is to big in pixel or size. Make it small yourself, then load it up again.
  14. Oh, Then do this. Go to our gallery and add your picture in the whichever categorie you want. Then do this. 1. Click on New Reply in the bottom. 2. Go to the gallery. 3. Click on the picture of the car that you want to post. 4. Right click on the picture of the car and a bar should come up. Pick "Properties" 5. In address URL: Copy this info. 6. Then back to this site, and above the replying section. You see options, B, underline, etc.... Click on IMG. A box should come up. 7. Paste the URL [which you copies from step 5] and pasted in the box and then click ok. 8. Then hit "Add Reply."
  15. Click on "New Reply" so you can get all of the options. In the bottom of the edit box, there is a section where you can attach a file. Its called "Files Attachment" They key is that the size of the picture has to be 100K or less. You can find out what size your picture is by: Right Clicking on the picture and pick "Properties." If the size is too big, then edit the picture and reduce the demensions or pixels, if you can. What is the picture of?
  16. I hope it turns out just the way you want it too. B)
  17. I don't think that any of us can give you the exactly correct answer to this question then these guys: Flow Lexus Address: 611 Edgewood St, Kernersville, NC 27284 Phone: (336) 993-0105 I think there is one in Raleigh, but I don't know there phone number.
  18. What kind of picture? 1. From your computer (an attachment)? Or 2. Copying from a website?
  19. How much is it going to cost you to rework them? Comparing to replacing them with new ones!
  20. My lex was leaking oil in the garage so, without telling me my dad took it to this mechanic: Newton's Carolina Car Care Inc. This is the service performed: Check for engine oil leak. Replace lower transmission pan gasket. Change oil&filter. Part# _______Description______________Price BK _________Degreaser/Cleaner________$2.96 RS ________Gasket Sealer (29208)_____$5.94 21348_______Oil Filter________________$4.95 C2OW50_____Castrol Motor Oil 20W50___$12.00 Service costs: $132 Total: $163.62 Needed Service: Leak (seeping) at transmission pan gasket. Was this price legit?????
  21. The mounts are kind of expensive over at www.lexus-parts.com Where did you get yours from?
  22. The link has a error in it. Try sending it again.
  23. Great to hear that. Did you do it yourself or had it done by someone?
  24. You're welcome. I took a survey on whats your favorite color for a Lexus. Most of the results came out to be Pearl White. I don't think he will mind. But, ask if he still has the receipts and where did he got the work done.
