I had trouble with the seat as well - just has no support, it's like sitting on a folding chair with a little padding & nice leather. Lexus really needs to go get a Volvo seat, tear it down, and copy it. Eventually, I got used to it - but it's probably the poorest part of the car, IMO.

I'm going to buy a 93 LS400 with 130000KM in perfect state, where is the risk, for 5000 Euros

Well, I don't have my conversion chart with me, so I don't know what $5000 euros means to me, but the risk with a well kept 93 LS400, would be in the air suspension, and the LCD readouts in the dash, and the instrument cluster. You may lose a power steering pump too, which when it leaks, will take out the alternator below. But the engine and transmission are only half done, so I wouldn't worry about those.

I had same/similar problem...an '04 LS 430 with unsatisfactory ride. Turned out to be a busted strut, left rear. An inexpensive (relatively) fix that really give the car a beautiful ride again. Maybe your situation is different, tho.

This may seem strange, but I also had problems finding a comfortable driver's seat position but fooled around with it a lot and found one that's great even on long rides. I hated the seat, not I like it.

I still hate the seat, and have not really yet found that sweet spot for a seating position. I've always had this problem with Toyotas - they're not built for a long-legged, fat assed American male. If I don't buy another Lexus, the seat would likely be the reason. The rest of the car, I love.
