'06 Lexus GS430 *56k warning!*

[toyemp]

OK. So I traded in my '02 GS430 for an '06 last week and spent the weekend cleaning it up. I didn't realize it until I got it home that the car was covered in white overspray, probably from sitting for over a month in the Port of Long Beach in the vehicle processing plant.



I spent over 3 hours claying the car removing all the overspray, then hit it with my tried and true favorites --



#80

#20 x 2

#26 x 2

and the gratuitous reflection shot of course !!!

That is a gorgeous car. Haven't seen any in person yet but I doubt I will be disappointed!

Gorgeous.



Looks to be very little orange peel also.



Congrads. :up:

Mmm, beautiful car indeed. You have it just perfect, love the depth and shine. Where are you located, it looks warm... look green grass... :xyxthumbs

Thanks. With all the rain we got this year in So Cal, everything is either snow covered or greener than it has been in years. I'm in "the OC" (boy, do I hate that show but it sure put us on the map)

AMAZING! I love that vehicle. You have quite the car collection there...good taste. Also, signatures need to be 3 lines or less (thought I'd give you a heads up). Congratulations on the purchase!

Congrats on picking a fine machine. My father bought his about a month ago and loves it. Except he got the GS300 instead. (He says he doesnt need the V8 ) I absolutely LOVE the interior!

What a quality auatomobile! You can't go wrong with a Lexus. May have gone wrong with black as I have discovered over the past 2 1/2 years. Keeps you on your toes detailing wise.

 

[SilverLexus]

Looks very nice. I'm always impressed with the Lexus paint jobs.



I would highly recommend trying Pinnacle Souveran, especially with such smooth paint.

except for my camry, which is a dark green, all my cars for the last 10 years have been black. I love the color and I guess I am just a stickler for punishment
