Thanks Steve...The car was sent to Sterling/McCall Lexus in Houston. I should hear Monday or Tuesday about the damage. Cosmetically only the fender, bumper and wheel..don't know about underneath. :cries:

These uys provided one for my 1990...I had no problems. http://www.auto-air-compressor.com/default.htm

This thread has all the info and pictures. http://us.lexusownersclub.com/forums/index...t=0&start=0

how about insurance and registration............Saves you from fumbling through the glove box. ;)

Have not noticed low profile and large diameter but the opposite. What is your weight and height, if I may ask. I'm 6.0 and 186 and find the car much more comfortable than my 400's or 430.

Very well said blacktop. Sometimes we forget why we are here and where we are going and all in between. Thanks for your heartfelt reply and caring wisdom.

Just an update...Driving the 47 GMC and Nationwide will pay for a rental once the Lexus heads to Houston for repair. They do not have presence in Louisiana...wonder why..LOL..they will have to hire an independant appraiser here who should or better show up by thursday....probably a cousin..we are all related here it seems. As a Senator's Grandson and my girlfriend is a Senator's daughter I don't think there will be a problem. ;) The GMC 460HP vette engine is putting a damper on my mpg. Being careful as my next ride is a Fuji racing bike thats been in the garage for four years...lol. Anywho.. the GMC is enjoying it. Went to my Aunt's funeral today and decided to take Debbie's (G/F) Beemer as the GMC is a bit "loud" for a funeral procession. God Bless Aunt Shirley..Buried a lot of my family in the last 3 years. Getting old sucks. Rough week to say the least. Hold your families Dear and close to your hearts as they are much more important than material things that can be replaced.

Thanks guys...no one was hurt..Nationwide has not sent an appraiser yet....

Anyways, thanks for your help. The residual will not be affected as long as Lexus passes it and the car is on its way to Houston..Sterling/McCall and their insurance is Nationwide who said take it anywhere you want to fix it. Once again, thanks for your help. :whistles:

Well i leased the 460, 08, a few weeks ago 1600 miles ago and a Mexican national pulled out in front of me and they got the ticket. Some were illegals and I wont go there. They disappeared. Took out my right front end. Fender, lights, leaking fluid etc. They have insurance from Arkansas verified by the police investigation. Now I know its a lease and my residual will take a big hit. Cop said to total it since it was a sideways hit. "Only guys that really know, Please". Don't want speculators. Lease vehicle..New..slammed...Next?

I believe it is in the trunk left hand side..............You may have to unscrew two 12mm bolts to turn it for access.

Welcome Daniel !!!!

Happy Birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;)

Sounds good to me...You guys have done your homework..Congratulations.

When you put in flowmasters it's a good idea to put in a crossover as close to the headers as possible. Since you have no headers why the flowmasters? Seems redundant.

That pertains to the "Pre Crash Safety" system. May be as simple as a dirty lens on the radar in the front.

Thank You, Lexusfreak.............Nice of you to say so. ;)

Thanks DC..I love cooking lessons and have a signed class under Jacques Pepin. We were much younger then. :D To incorporate this, I would say when the product is ready..Plate it up..Go Lexus.. I have loved every serving, including this one. How nice LS460. Thanks my friend. "Bon Appetit"

Thanks Leadfoot..I did retire the ninja cat...LOL..

Turn up your hearing aid !! LOL just kidding :D Florida joke...They are quiet and a little too quiet.

Don't know if it's what you are looking for but Google 1990 Lexus ls400. Lotsa history there.

DC I was gonna call that..LOL..A louisiana boy and a Lexus blue helmet...couldn't lose. :cheers: Need you to call some of my stocks..Nice call DC.

My two cents again, I agree with Gordon and still am confused as to 08ls460's response and in no mean to do I not disagree with his asessment. Having just purchased an 07 Avalon for my future "father in law" in bad need of replacing his 97 fleetwood and his saying quote " The best car I have ever owned" referring to the Avalon. Keep in mind he is 84 and a former State Senator and having owned Caddi's all his life I found it to be not only profound but challenging. We took it for a ride from Lake Charles to a small town about 12 miles up I-10, the roughest ride you will ever take and it behaved. Now, I will say "behaved" bumpity, bump. Took the same ride in the 460 and a "much" more "subdued" bumpity, bump. Smoother than his Avalon and more tart than my 430. Take that ride in my girlfriends BMW 325 and call a chiropractor. Not sure what is the matter, tire pressure or a tie down problem as was suggested. My Dealer put my tires at 30psi maybe for the cause. My friends Dealer put his S600 at 29 down from 34. Could be our roads compared to Euro standards as their roads are much better. 08ls460 try 30psi as that is where mine were set a delivery. Hope we resolve this issue as I have none on my ride. Hope it works out for you 08ls460 or maybe a Lincoln is your best bet.

Nice Cars!!!!!

All I can think of is either Cadillac/ Lincoln crossovers or implants from other forums or manufacturers, God forbid. LOL, in this age of Clintons nothing surprises me. I have owned a 400, 430 and the 08 460 is the best ride of all. As you may or not be aware of I have had extensive experience with 07 S550's and 08 S600. I would like to hear what you harsh riders have been driving. I also would be interested in your Dealer, and Service Ticket write up numbers to substantuate these claims. I'm sure Lexus would be too. It seems to me that we need to clear this up. So 08ls460/is400?, and other qualified or non, what is your history with LS's and "previous" vehicles and your expectations or assumptions. All I heard before is the LS is a boat. Now that it has met BMW/MB, more than halfway and not beating your back out, rock solid in turns, it's more solid than before. Quieter than a 550/600, the best of all worlds, I promise. Hopefuly, we can clear these accusations up.
