Please take those pics down. They make it hard for me to look at my '98 400

Beautiful find... pictures look great. The interior looks amazing, especially with the extra trim my '98 doesn't have. Good luck with this car. I'd be so paranoid of driving it after it's been kept so well!

Great find!! Welcome to the low-milers Club... (I found my '05 GS430 with 18K in perfect condition 3 yrs ago) Rides better than my GS400.

I would be Paranoid too. I bought my CPO '05 GS430 for daily use but it had such low miles like this one, I find myself babying my car more than my older GS400 because of its Perfect-Low Miles condition.

OP, that black on black looks great. I'm done with black cars though... looks great washed, but shows every single item that's messed up. I want to paint mine badly.

Agreed. I had a black Lexus ES300 before I recently bought my white GS300. The ES showed every little speck of dirt. White is far better in my opinion.

She's beautiful. Get everything looked at because people think cars that sit for a long time are basically undamaged cars when on the contrary, cars are meant to be driven. Cars have to be driven. Some parts have to go through cycles to reach longevity otherwise they'll just fail from being rotted due to a stand still.

I talked to the dealer today and they said someone was very persistent about trying to buy the car after i signed the purchase agreement. they offered them $16,000 sight unseen. It was on their
website for 13,999.
