It’s kinda cool for the right buyer. Might help to note that’s it’s not a convertible.
Good luck with your sale. 👍

It’s the car at the meet that everyone looks at and says wow, then moves on to spend real time admiring and chatting about the blower on that car, the turbo on the next, or the coil overs on the next. Real interest is in power and handling mods.
And when it’s time to sell, all that money thrown at it goes down the drain. And 4x4 bolt on fender flares? It’s hideous.

According to the ad, it has a cam and air suspension. At least they're only asking $17k for it. Still a little steep for a '97 with 138k miles. It's also an automatic. Although, in this case automatic is good because the vast majority of people who would want this car are going to be too young to know how to drive a stick. I personally hate the bolt on fender flares and the chandelier is just stupid. I'm sure there's a young kid who's just gotten their license who would find this to be cool as hell.

Maybe 6 months ago, walking in parking lot to store with wife see this maybe 1990’s-2000 ish Lexus 4 door.
It had a big chandelier lit up and blue/purple lights glowing under the car, car was cruising real slow and young guy saw me looking.
He was so proud looking, he thought I was impressed but I was thinking WTF!
