Hey, made a few posts here and there on the forums. Definitely a potential buyer for the Nx200t. Owned a Lexus ages ago and wish I never got rid of it. Have always been a big Lexus fan though. Think this'll be a good purchase !

Welcome to the forum, glad to have you here.

I heard the same from many people that have bought lexus' especially ones from the 90 which I think had the best build quality of its time!
what Lexus did you own?

Thanks ! And well, falling into that category, I owned a 92 SC400 actually lol. Glad to know I'll fit in nicely here ahah !

Those were great cars, fortunately there's a good amount of them around still for a good price, but I have a feeling prices will be going up, if they haven't already.

I had a 1999 LS400, that thing was the best sedan I ever had. Before that was an Acura RL and then a Honda Accord. The RL as special as it was, just wasn't doing it for me.

Ahh I've always loved the LS400s, especially the 97-00' because they added the VVT-i ! But prices I think should be going up as well.

As much as I like to think that will happen, with how techy new cars are and how old those LS400's are, some people might feel more and more discouraged from getting one. The idea alone of owning a 20 year old car discourages a lot of people.

Thats the thing.. if you can find a mint one, which is quite difficult, they still carry a decent price which is what leads me to believe they'll go up. Probably not soon, but in maybe a decade or so

A long time for a small return but for someone genuinely into it and would love to drive it, the perk of increased value over time will pay off after some lengthy ownership term. I'd just hate to know what finding parts will be like in 5+ years from now.

Oh god I really don't want to think about that haha
