There are a few more of us about at the moment so let's see your 'F's. I may be biased but I think these cars are one of the best looking saloons around. I'll start and hopefully you will all keep 'em coming: This was how it looked when I picked it up - hard to believe it was 5 years old!

If you check hondas history they dont.build overly powerful cars but i always hear they are 'engaging' to drive puts the driver in control more than computer aiding the drive integras, NSX, Preludes, S2000 and even the UK built gen 1 Civic Type R's all have religious followers and punch above thier weights in terms of driving pleasure and performance.

best kept secret. SH-AWD but Hondaman does not want a big car... watch a few vids of the legends SH-AWD in action and you might change your mind lol

as Ganesh says take one up for a spin..its a fun car my mates one but before I went for the lexus I asked my self one question. 'how often would I use the handling capabilities of the 330 BMW' against the more coushin feel of the 300 and regardless of the 300 having a softer setup is not far off the handling of the BMW. thing is Lexus can make an agile handling car if they want to but I guess they always try to keep the soothnes and softy ride in all their models. test drive the M sport 330i and hop back in the 250 and you can tell how soft the Lexus is setup. every time I was in my mates car and went into mine it felt like I was floating even with 18" lowered sport suspension on. those new Accords need the 3.5 V6 300bhp engine from the Legends Ganesh..and throw in the Super handling-AWD feature aswell. they look really nice and big.

" man up " ....... the Mk3 is a great car, the battery/alternator is a minor issue and easily resolvable at minimum cost ...... the Ls430 by comparison just might be your nemesis, a moneypit ! 142k mils on a Mk3 is like 25% of it's drivetrain life Malc

Sounds like the engine is flooding and soaking the plugs this is a common fault on lesser cars but usually unheard of in a Lexus.The fuel is poured in on a cold start and if the engine is allowed to get to a running temprature mode any excess fuel quiclkly evaporates before it soaks the plugs.If the engine is continually using the cold start mode which is controlled via the ECU from a temprature sensor in the engine coolant it will excaberate the problem, because it will continue to soak the plugs ,hence the strong smell of petrol .If you are not getting any problems with normal starting after the engine as been running for a couple of minutes then the foregoing will probably be the answer to your problem.If the problem starts to become frequent there is a fuel management fault get the engine fault code system checked for any held code malfunctions.

I have a set of the bulbs you need, top quality ones..£10 posted Bought them for my is200 but now sold car.

Any black spray paint should do doesnt have to be heat resistant. As for the bulbs, u sure u have the correct ones? Just need some chrome/silvatec T20 bulbs and shud fit straight in.
