Default I am in love with this car

If everything plays out my way...i will own one of these within a year or two:

2000 Lexus GS300



Thats pretty much the same way id like it to look. Theres one for sale close to me but its a 2001 model for $10,500. Id like to get the latest possible model for around the 10K price range....my plans are to put down cash as much as possible (maybe 5K) so ill have a small payment. Gotta save a couple grand for customizing as well 9(rims, sounds..etc).

Default Re: I am in love with this car

Yeah i love these luxury sport sedans...i dunno what it is about them.

I guess its the comfort + speed. Regular luxury cars remind me of old people...and i dont want just a sports car. This is the best of both rolled into one. And the steering wheel is on the left side which is the right side!!!!!!

That's a good car. Plus Lexus is about as reliable as it gets.
