After the Estima was crashed in the Alps, I needed a new daily driver. this was it. I bought it for stupid cheap off a work colleague.
I kept it for a while and eventually traded it for MX5 parts!
I wanted to go drifting, so I bought an MX5. I think I loved this car more than any car I’ve ever owned, and regret selling this more than any car I’ve ever sold!
I only sold it because work started sending me to the other end of the country to work, and you can’t turn up at client sites with a stripped out drift car as your daily driver and expect to be taken seriously. trust me, you can’t!
Originally bought so I can rip the engine out to fit into a Lexus IS300 body when I find one, the sheer luxury-ness of this car has now swayed me enough that the LS will be the only daily driver I’ll ever own! (I’ll only get another LS when looking for another main car.)
Everything about this car is amazing, all round heated leather seats, electric everything, and the 262hp V8 delivers loads of torque and power that will launch you towards the limited top speed of 155mph. Not bad for a 1.6 ton barge!
After I got tired of family hatchbacks, I yearned for something a bit more grown up. I decided I needed a Lexus in my life, and the IS200 was the one for me.
