MI 2000 lexus ls 400 platinum VIP

[Greg5OH]

Listed for $12,000 as it sits right now. 160k
miles. I am located near Detroit MI.
Before putting it away last winter i did 4 new wheels bearings timing belt and water pump.

Basically, the car is A+ mechanically but needs cosmetic attention to be a full show queen again.

I am a powertrain test and development engineer by trade, but I am no body/paint guy.


Last summer new front upper control arms
3 summers ago all rear suspension front lower ball joints innter outer tie rods

I can do facetime/fb video chat walk around with the vehicle with serious candidates and go over any questions the buyer may have.

Does need cosmetic work on side skirts and rear bumper.
Rear bumper has some flaking near the bottom.
NOTE: car will come with stock front bumper as the custom front has been sold already.

Car was originally built by Brett Lyver of Liberty VIP and Rockstar Motorsports. I purchased the car off Brett right after he had the interior finished.

There is rust appearing on the bottom right of the trunk lid by the license plate
Side skirts could use a repaint from stone chips.
Front fenders have some chipping paint around the arch radius.
Rear window is scratched up from someone using a dirty polishing cloth.
Front windshield has a stone chip in it, bottom center. I had it filled so it wont spread but ideally should replace the window to make it super clean again.

Could use new tires.

I can call, text, email, face time, whatever the potential buyer wants.
