She's a 1988 Toyota Cressida Executive edition, factory Pearl white that only came on 88's and burgundy leather interior. I have owned her since Febuary 2011, bought from a middle-aged cressida enthusiast who had rebuilt the 5MGE and kept her in extremely good condition.
Currently she is undergoing heart surgery, I'm doing a 1JZ-GTE/R154 swap with a Microtech LT-12S standalone ECU, GT3076R Turbo. She already has Serialnine/Stance D-spec coilovers and some other goodies too. I am shooting for 300WHP to start, may bump it up some more afterwards since I have a 4-500horsepower setup.
The wheel's are Work Euroline NS' From Japan. (F)17x8+25(R)18x9+26 ((If anyone has a pair of Euroline center cap's they wanna sell, let me know!))
I'm running a 30mm bolt on spacer in the front since the negative camber made it look sunken, plus the offset was too high so the wheel's were hitting my coilovers. I bought a pair of 15mm bolt on spacers for the rear so I will be rolling my fenders and making that more flush.
Desiree is best friend's with Larry of DeathSquad.

The car has lost it's rake that's shown in a few photo's here, I have New springs for my serialnine coilovers that are 2" shorter, so I'll be tucking 18's in the rear. The Euroline's came in pair's though, they weren't a full set. I managed to make a set of them, the 18's were sooo clean I had to have them. The 17's are much worse in shape.

You shoulda seen one time I was driving to work, bumpin Westside Connection, drinkin a rockstar, obviously I can't hear shit outside Desiree. I randomly looked over and saw this lady in a mini van waving her hands and yelling at me. I thought maybe I did something to piss her off, so I muted my music, rolled down the window and attempted to apologize... She started yelling " YOUR WHEEL'S ARE FALLING OFF, PULL OVER!!!!" I have probably 3.5 or 4 degree's of negative camber all around, *facepalm*... she got behind me and put her hazards on, started telling everyone to watch out, my car is a hazard. How embarassing. Needless to say my car got a couple look's.
