PICS: New addition to my garage

Whats up Azine fam...I know it has been a while since your ol Uncle Jitty has posted but I am happy to report that my trusty TL Type S of 7 years has a new roommate in the garage...I finally just said **** IT and got my first Lex because life is too short and gotta enjoy it! Now the joys of keepin up with a black car can begin! The Ack continues to be the daily driver, but now gets a break on the weekends and road trips!

You already know I did the HID fog conversion and put the yellows in, and I think I'll keep it low key and just get the 19x8 Touring edition OEM LS460 wheel..even though 22" Vossen CV1 Staggers would looks soooo nice!

Haha funny how things like that happen hey? Very nice choice you made there with the LS. Did you buy brand new? Good on ya, I'm sure you work hard to afford one. I'm sure one day a number of us will step up to true luxury as well.

Thanks! Actually bought a 2007..had 44K miles on it from a great broker here in ATL. Took it to Lexus and they looked it over and provided me the complete history on it. It was in the dealership every 5K for normal maintenance according to the VIN printout. The car was in great shape and I saved a ton of cash vs buying CPO at dealer. Got the extended warranty through my credit union for an extra $1K which covers bumper to bumper with no deductible up to 104K miles. The deal was meant to be. And let me tell you, it is stupid fast for being a big body..380hp V8..plenty fast for your ol Uncle Jitty

Congratulations CJitty, the lex looks awesome. My wife has the lwb in starfire pearl and we absolutely love it. Did yours come with the ML? It's absolutely fantastic and puts to shame the Bose in my Audi.

So do the rear seats recline or is that just the L model that does that? I fricken love that car. Favorite feature, when sitting at a light hit the brake assist whatever it's called and you can take your foot off the brake and the car stays still. Nice pickup!

!!! I love LS, all because of all the VIP LS I have seen. They are total sex. Glad to see you picked up a LS, and thinking life is too short and you have to enjoy it.

Saving a bit of money is good, such as retirement funds or if you have kids, kids college funds, and a bit of "back-up" money, but other that, I don't see why can't someone spend some money to have fun.

Good luck on your LS!
