Need to sell my other car!

Post by MatBat » Wed May 16, 2007 11:28 am

Well I've been given the choice between keeping my beloved MX5 or my Lexus LS400 (which is out of this world!) Anyway I've decided on keeping the MX5 as it's far more "me". So the Lexus goes on the market. If anyone knows of someone interested in a 1991 LS400 (yes it's the V8) let me know I'm asking $6750

:cry:

Oh well at least I can keep the 5 :twisted:

Not that I'm in the market, but these are great cars. I drove a 2.5 Twin Turbo for a while (1992)...slightly more HP than the V8 ;)

I found it a bit difficult to place nicely around corners at times... if I wasn't too careful when putting my foot down... due to the huge turbo lag. Had it sideways on many occasion - not often on purpose...

Actually - looking further I see yours is the LS400 which is the Celsior sedan model. I had the Soarer... which apparently is an SC400.

I learn something new every day ;)

Indeed they are good cars, and reasonably fast for a big car with a top speed of 149mph which is up there with the S-class mercs.
The refinement is what amazes me, mine has done 250,000k's and is still like new, the doors haven't dropped at all, the engine is practically silent and it's all original.
