hahahaha made my day. that last one is crazy. How long did it take you to wash it? I actually think that color would look pretty badass on a 100. Just wash the windows and headlights. see how it looks!

Nice, looks like fun (not washing it though...).
Nick-look at the color on this 200, looks similar.

All clean (except for the engine bay). I need to have it powerwashed... Didn't take too long, just 30 minutes with the powerwasher at the shell station. But I wasn't comfortable cleaning the engine, so its still dirty.

you can wash the engine bay, just dont go full pressure close up. I hit it with high pressure to sort of "blow" the crap off, then low pressure and move up close. Don't spray the fuse boxes directly. I do a quick sweeping motion over them to kinda get the dirt off. Then wipe the remaining off. Rest of the engine I have fun with and make a mess of myself and the car wash

Always wanted a flat tan hunday. Thinking of flat tan vinyl that can be removed.

Id make sure you get all that mud out of your radiator
I think the single greatest thing about getting a 100 dirty, especially an LX, is the looks of shock, awe, disbelief and disgust that you get.....and for all those who dont understand the joy of using these vehicles for they were made for
Keep the pictures coming.....a dirty 100 is a happy 100

You're just jealous that I could give a flying f about my paintjob and you are afraid of a few brush scratches.

Lexus actually sort of made the color. It was for 2003 or 2004, called Sand Dollar Pearl. I wasn't a fan, but I am definitely a fan of that 200 (truck and color). The more badass 200s I see, the more I can get past that design and buy one... now... if someone wants to give me $70k....

Thanks for reminding me... I need to get a new one. Jim Falk Lexus ripped mine apart (as you can see in the pictures), plus I need one for the 80... which I have decided to keep.
Let's see another dirty LX (or 100)... I like them covered in mud!

Well its not dirt, and once the temperature got above 32*F it was all gone but it still looks cool and reminds me of high school.
First picture, self explanitory.
Second? "Well as you can see from exhibit L, drifting around in the snow for 15 hours non stop will create a thick frozen layer of snow over your license plate and just about everything else." There were solid blocks of ice behind both bumpers and everywhere underneath the vehicle except the exhaust. The wheel wells were completely packed except for where the tires rubbed away.
oh ya, this is the NY way of getting out of your driveway when it's snowy out.
