Default Hello

Hello all CL members, I am new to this. I just got a new used 1999 GS300 and love it. I can’t tell why I waited this long to get one.
Well I have always loved the 2GS body style. I think the 2GS is timeless! It can still hang with any other newer body style luxury sedan.
I have couple pictures and will upload more. I don’t plan to do any major mods. I will like to keep it as stock as possible while exuding a class.

Nice GS and color. The GS is a great looking car, keeping it stock isnt a bad idea. I just lowered mine and sure do miss that smooth ride. Good luck with it!

Thank you. So far, the CL community is as refined as Lexus, way different from other online community.

Welcome to CL. Car s eems to be in great condition. If you do not know the service history you should plan on doing the lower ball joints and tie rods asap.

nice ride and welcome!
get your ball joints looked at and/or replaced asap, especially if u have higher milage get them replaced right away. Then get an alingment, front tire looks like it has uneven wear.

then sit back replax and enjoy ur new ride!!

Does anyone know how much it would cost to put an in-dash back-up camera on a GS300?
