Default Just picked up my first GS300!

Hello CL. I just picked up my first GS300 this week. I'm pretty stoked about it. It seems to be very well taken care of. Cosmetically, a few random small dings here and there. But all in all, it is great. Just wanted to share with the CL community

*Pictures were taken using an iPhone, so not the greatest quality.









I'd appreciate any comments, or advice!

Thanks! It's dropped on some BC Coilovers. Tan colored interior. Pretty clean, but there is a rip on driver's seat.

Looks good. I had leaking cam seals, which I changed when I did the timing belt. Take the upper cover off of the belt and try to see where the oil is coming from.

Welcome to CL. Your 300 looks pretty clean! Everything you need to know is in this forum somewhere

Again, thanks for the warm welcomes. Reading through all the various build threads is just so motivating. Really gives me an idea of what I want to do with mine. Also, CL is awesome, a lot different in contrast to many other forums I've been on.

Looks like the original black pearl emblems were replaced, but they were placed a little too high up on the trunk.

Welcome!
