Default Buying a GS300

Just recently got into the market for a GS300 and came across an electric blue oem paint job. Ive never seen anything like it. Is it rare? should i try to get my hands on it? Or should i continue my search to find a black gs for my vip project?

That blue is pretty rare. I have always wanted one! If the miles, service history and price is right I'd go for it. You'll def stand out!

The paint was alright, it had a few scratches but all the usual stuff that would buff out. I'm thinking about getting it, just going to have a lexus mechanic take a look at it this weekend and give me his opinion. I did see some rust in the engine bay... not corrosive but it's there. The car was sitting for around 6 months. hopefully that stuff would sand right off.
