Dad wants to trade the E93 335i for a Limited Wald Lexus LS460L...

xxballinboi786 · 05-16-2008, 10:26 PM

there are only 2 completely modified in the entire U.S...one in manhattan and one in Beverley Hills...my dad bought a LX570 yesterday and saw the car and loved it...he took me today, and its one of the most beautiful cars ive seen in a long time! from the custom fenders to the custom rims to the custom side skirts its just perfect...what do you guys think?

these pictures honestly dont do the car justice...i believe the manhattan lexus dealership added their own touches to the car...but regardless, it was nice!

STE92VE · 05-16-2008, 10:54 PM

to each their own....those tires/wheels not very practical for metro NY...IMHO, the front of the hood looks like this...

arabbmw · 05-16-2008, 10:59 PM

^^^^^^^^^
hahahaha i donno about that.

I think it looks good but not much different than any other one on the road. But if your dad wants to trade a sports car for a luxury sedan than that would be a good choice as long as he realizes how different the two cars are.

BaLLzZz · 05-16-2008, 11:01 PM

that shit is sick regarless

e92leon · 05-16-2008, 11:06 PM

awesome car!^

darkphantom · 05-16-2008, 11:12 PM

don't know what he's thinking but that LS is FUGLY on the outside...

I'd stick to stock or go 600H route

Corsis · 05-16-2008, 11:33 PM

I think its a beautiful sedan. If he wants to go for a more luxury car, this is a nice one to get IMO.

Comet · 05-16-2008, 11:37 PM

bope.. doesn't look so wow to me...
personally I wouldn't trade a convertible sports car for a luxury sedan

I got my vert cuz I want the feel of air in my hair... not to be driven by a chauffeur

Bulldog 6 · 05-16-2008, 11:49 PM

It looks like Lex tried to merge a Bimmer and MB together. I always thought Lex's car designs were boring. What is the $$$? A B7 Alpina seems like a better choice.

No, no it doesn't. The Alpina B7 is a disgrace. It's Fugly. Imo.

The 3 is sprots 'vert and the LS is a Luxery Sedan. Two completely different cars. I'd hang on to the 'vert, the car is nice though.

RenaultOne · 05-17-2008, 01:28 AM

i think the Lexus looks fking fantastic! And I am not so sure about it looking like that animal posted above...

Bimmeration · 05-17-2008, 01:29 AM

daddy's gonna get what he wants.

MrToad · 05-17-2008, 01:32 AM

Wow, that LS is damn unique thats for sure

wj4 · 05-17-2008, 01:34 AM

I would absolutely do it. I love the way the new LS looks..I never got to like the E93.

edb5020 · 05-17-2008, 08:00 AM

Nice car. I dont really care for a Lexus though. They seems kinda cheezy everytime I was in one, but i'm sure they are comfortable. Like the other guys said, make sure you let your pops know that BMW = Performance + Luxury and Lexus = Luxury + Luxury.

Crazy Bimmer · 05-17-2008, 10:20 AM

He wont get it.

MrOffshore · 05-17-2008, 10:26 AM

It's trying to be something it's not...a Bentley, right down to the logo Wald used on the side molded accent. I'm not a fan, but it's a completely different car than a 3 Series...so I guess he's simply in the market for something different...more power to those that know what they want!!

Digital.James · 05-17-2008, 10:42 AM

If youve never sat or driven a Lexus LS460 youre in for a treat. Go drive one. It's like sitting and driving from your favorite couch! I couldnt think of a better car to drive long distances in. Its extremely comfortable, even more so than the German brands. It's quiet and has the best ride, which is important for old people. Although not sure about a modded one.

My pops has a CLS55 and test drove the Lexus also, he was extremely impressed.

to_riffic · 05-17-2008, 11:10 AM

i'd say go for it...

continentalg5 · 05-17-2008, 12:17 PM

Do it!

How much is that thing anyway?

number335 · 05-17-2008, 12:36 PM

To each his own. If it was any other Lexus, I would say stick with the bimmer. But this car will be hard to find anywhere else and looks sharp. Get it.
