New Car Every Year
Must be nice, actually must be a pain in the @%%, after customizing it like you have done,I don't get why someone would need to go buy a new GS if you already have a nice one and customized it to your liking......strange but whatever floats your boat, just pick a nice color.........

Changing cars like underwear!
Guys 00lex explained his rationale for switching cars annually a while back, it involved him having a dealers license and values, etc etc
hey 00lex, since you change so often, just get a GS400 this time and buy a supercharger kit for it! (that way I can buy it next fall!! LOL)

thanks d for explaining it, but this is the first time i have uninstalled i=stuff. this was my first lex. i came from a c5 vette to this, i sold the vette with all 4 12's in it as well as all the other mods. i have sold all my cars fully decked out, but my next car will be on a new level.... just wait and see, (wont compare to dgots beauty but maybe close), but i will have a few tricks up my sleeve. also i needed about 20k in cash to buy a few investemnt houses and since i pay cash for everything i buy it makes it wasy to get the MONEY....

The Ultimate GS, what you should plan:
Start with a plain, high mileage well maintained GS3
1. Engine: I know you said that you missed the power of your C5 vette, Supra TT Engine with 6-speed Manual Transmission. Deck that baby out with a single turbo kit with a T88, 6-spd and custom everything. I know since you live in florida Toyomoto can do the swap for you.
2. Wheels: Pick yourself a nice set of HRE's, nice deep dish 20's staggered set-up with custom widebody fenders putting yourself some nice 9 inch in the front, 11.5 inch wide in the back.
3. Body: You pick, each person has they're own opinion on what looks good and all. I would personally pick the full Lsportline kit with front, rear, and side skirts from Lsportline, A Veilside exec rear spoiler, and the roof spoiler of your choice. Veilside hood, and whatever else you want.
4. System: I don't know if you are keeping your Alphasonic system, but If not, here is my dream system:
3 13" W7's, 2 JL 1000/1 amps, Focal top of the line Utopia's running on two nice JL 300/2 amps. For the headunit, I would get the new Alpine touchscreen DVD unit that is coming out in a couple months, the Alpine F1 status EQ, then get custom headrests made with some giant kenwood 8.5" touchscreen headrests. Get some alpine screens in the visors,
5. Interior: Get some custom two-tone leather, real clean though, nothing too gaudy. If you want, do a custom fiberglass dash, I saw that on a supra and it looks real slick if your not going with a gaudy color.
6. Suspension: Go with some nice Tein's of your choice and then deck out the rest with some strut braces and sways, the whole nine yards on the suspension
7. Lighting, I know you had a killer lighting system on your old car, so go that same with with a boatload of neons and all that.
Can't think of any other aspects of the car I'm missing but that would be my dream GS
