Hi Hunter, you know that the two Goldtops on the right is one too many. Sell me one will ya

If you high end Japanese, I would say yes. The brand new LS186 I tried lately is close to my 1980 LS80 but not quite up there, so my guess is that from a LS250 onwards it will be very close.

Hi,

Thanks for your interest. Unfortunately, the one on Reverb is a heavy beast (4.7 kg).
