Turns out there’s a really good Chinese buffet in the area, so the journey is justified.

Going to see a car followed by a buffet? Sounds like there is no downside.

Kung Pao Chicken and a RWD luxury coupe. What’s not to like?

Really nice cars, great summer cruisers without the downsides of a convertible in the PNW. But prepare to be severely disappointed if you expect it to be fast.

I expect it to be a comfortable luxury cruiser. The engine and transmission are rated for around 500 horsepower. Here’s hoping I can convince my dad to supercharge it.

I just learned that it gets to 60 SLOWER than my Accord.

I was going to say, I recall you having a v6 accord and it certainly would be faster. But yeah 1UZ is a great, stout engine. Good luck with your potential purchase, and convincing your dad to supercharge. Would certainly be cool to see.

I’ll make sure I drive it to the next Oppo meet at Redmond C&C.

Down for Chinese food of any sort .... I’m Jewish - we know how to find the best Chinese food. At bargain prices!

Haha that’s okay. And according to their website, they’re resuming on April 2, weather permitting.

Meanwhile my parents are looking at a customers loaded 2001 LS430 with *ONLY* 120k. Would make it the car with the 2nd least miles out of 8 total, with the only lower my dads 2014 Tundra Platinum. Im pumped if we get it. Might have to steal it for road trips.

The 1uz-fe, one of the 10 best engines of the entire century according to Wards best engine award. That has to be the smoothest, most reliable, and longest lasting V8 ever made. Just look at how many of these beasts are hitting 300,000 miles with 3rd and 4th owner negligent maintenance.

Yeah, it took some effort convincing my dad that a 200,000+ mile 1UZ-FE isn’t a dangerous investment, but I think he gets the idea now.

That's gonna leave a mark! > TheHondaBro 02/23/2016 at 05:32

Give it up for your dad for thinking outside of the box and not just buying some stale boring econobox.

If that doesn’t work out there is a 92 SC 400 on Autotrader, Hillsborough NC for $7999 with only 64,500 miles. May be worth the shipping cost.

For the sake of the little guy in white in the picture above, I hope the proprietors of said restaurant don't go see the Lexus too. ;) Good luck though, looks pretty clean from the CL add you posted.

Just remember, they have pretty short timing belt intervals.

Walked past a green one of these on my way to class this morning. I definitely wouldn’t turn down the chance to drive or own one.

Chinese food is good. But I’d steer clear of buffets. Those are horrible.
