2006 GS300 AWD
Gold in&out
Mileage 256k
Paid $6750 at 244k including tax plates and registration













After I got the car tinted 15% Johnson all the way around

I love the car it feels and looks brand new with that much mielege it's starts and runs like a champ. I have always been a Lexus driver going from 1997 LS400 to gs300 1998 and gs300 2002. By far never had this much mileage on a car and I'm hoping to get it to 500k inshallah

Default 2011 cpo gs 350

After several months of waiting, wanting, and watching, I finally bought a 2011 CPO Mercury Metallic with black interior GS 350 with 53k on the clock. She's in great condition, only 1 previous owner and the only thing missing was the ML stereo. I could have waited on a GS with the ML or less miles but decided I would only settle for either Mercury or black ext. and black interior, lower miles and CPO. A GS with these requirements doesn't make it within 100 miles too often, (could take months and I'm not super patient) so I decided to pull the trigger. My 07 ES 350 with 28k will now become my DD and the GS for any time I'm driving without kids in the car.
