Back In The Game....

Sup Guys, Never Really posted much in the past But anyways i sold my UCF11 about 3 years ago and got heavily into the SPL scene which led me to buy my 4runner. recently (4 months ago) my 4runner took a dump on me and turned into a never ending money pit. i was not planning on getting back into the VIP scene for another couple of years but just could not pass up a deal like this. basically my mom's co-workers neighbor has had this car ever since her husband passed away (3 or 4yrs ago) and she did not want to get rid of it. she recently asked my mom's co-worker if she knew anyone that would be interested in the car. So word got back to me and i said okay well it cant hurt to check it out. when me and my gf went to look at it i couldn't believe the mileage on the car. i kept asking the lady if someone had changed the gauge cluster and she said no, they were the original owners. so i carfaxed the VIN and also checked with the local Lexus dealer and turns out it's legit!. So basically it's a 1993 ls400 ultra. dark green with black leather and 5,8xx miles!!. i scored the car for a ridiculous price so low i don't want to post it. she needs minor fixes here and there... bumper has rash on the side and the chrome trim on the driver door is popping off. Anyways well sorry to bore you with my story.. i will let the pictures speak for themselves . Enjoy

Wow, I can't get over that mileage. Such a shame it's had those knocks, but I guess they're easily fixed.

Good find!

yah everyone is telling me not to modify it. i cant help myself. i told myself i would never pick up another UCF10/11 again. big part of the reason was that i could never find one with low mileage and black leather. i got the best of both worlds now. and im affraid she is going under the knife soon. nothing extreme, UAS, wheels, lip kit

remember tho, a car that SITS for too long is bound to have problems too. engines are like our hearts, they need moderate exercise.



someone told me that once haha

I'd try to sell it and double my money. But being your ride, do as you'd wish! Either way it is a stellar ride, and a crazy low amount of miles.

I thought picking up my '96 w/ 100k was low! That's crazy. I would be realll sketchy about the condition of everything rubber on the car though.... Because it has most likely been sitting still for a long, long time.
