2001 Lexus LS 430

A 20-year-old S-Class might still turn heads, but wait until the repair bill turns your dinner plans into instant noodles and tap water. If you wish to look 2000s rich, you can do it without a bankrupting service looming, and add the curtains and champagne glasses at your discretion in this 2001 Lexus LS430. For $7,500 with a clean title, 238k miles, and Airlift Performance 3P suspension, this Crystal White LS430 makes it look like you own the building without worrying if you can make rent. It has proven to be a better value than its German rivals after a couple decades, commands attention without demanding repairs, and is here for the long run instead of the lease term. Sure, you can drive it as it sits, and pay off your student loans instead of your mechanic’s mortgage. Then again, you could install some woodgrain tray tables, throw on some lace covers and SSR Viennas, and break more necks than a Chiropractor who thinks hes a real doctor.
