Default Some thing you don't see every day, pretty rare i think

found this GS searching local classifieds for parts, things of interest and whatnot...

maybe someone on here has a genuine interest in owning this gem.

Tried to look up the service history on this gem using the VIN# and it says "The VIN you have entered is invalid. Please check your VIN and try again." any body get a carfax on this one to verify mileage. pricey but looks too good to be true

Yeah right! Maybe if it had a supercharger, some serious interior updates and was a rare exterior color like Spectra Blue Mica . More like $13,000 if your lucky. $30K buys a low mileage GS460.

not sure what you mean by rare or not seen every day?


I see this model on the road about as often as I see Accords and Camry's.




19,000 miles? meh, I have a 1985 Ford Crown Victoria LTD with the last carbureted 302 that Ford made with 75,000 original miles in my garage. Was dads last car before he passed on. A lot more rare than this... and still not worth anything more than what someone would pay for a 30 year old Ford.

....but but but it has OVER $10,000 IN ROD-MILLEN PERFORMANCE UPGRADES. UPGRADED AIR INTAKE, DUAL EXHAUST, BRAKE CALIPERS, BRAKE ROTORS/PADS, FRONT GRILL, REAR SPOILER, FRONT BUMPER AND REAR BUMPER. NEW 19 INCH BBS WHEELS AND TIRES. :-) found service history on this car or part of it Last update at dealer is 08/26/2004 with 12,785 miles on it. The history shows that rod-million parts were installed upon taking receipt of the car.

So its only been driven 7000 miles over the past 10 years.

So sad you put all these performance parts on and it's never left the garage :/

10k or 20k in parts, realistically He's better off parting out. But it is a gorgeous Car in pristine condition ðŸ˜ðŸ˜*

Default will never sell at that price

itll need tires, radiator, probably valve cover gaskets, timing belt, etc... these are all things that are made of rubber and plastic and age and degrade over the decade its been on this planet. nice car but put some money aside for repairs the first time you take it out and romp on it. not hating just shocked this guys got the nuts to ask that much for it. geez.

You never know. Those 19K miles may be very hard professional racing miles It may have been a track car.

I wonder what part of Cali Mjeds is from, here in Santa Barbara its rare to see one especially with 19k original miles on it. For a 15 year old car thats pretty rare... 1,200 miles a year. I guess I'm used to seeing these cars with 120k or 180k on them

Yeah that's all that I thought was 'rare' was the original mileage these cars are usually high miles when they're on the market so it was kinda cool to see some still exist that aren't in a museum or something

I bought my 2001 gs430 2 years ago with 13k for $12. florida car stock.
very nice car but 30 is way to high. UNLESS it was owned by STILLEN.
but then no way for over 18k.
