Hello Everyone,
So I did end up getting the Red GS350 from Michigan at the end of last year. Red on Black, Luxury Package, ML Audio, Rear Heated seats, the whole shebang. Paid $31k and I believe I got great deal, even if it could have been a little better. Drives like a dream, literally can't distinguish it from a new one. When I hear that engine note, oh man... I can't help but floor it! Finally got her looking nice and clean, which is why I haven't posted photos in all this time, so I apologize for the delay. Thanks again to bclexus and everyone else who provided me with advice and other tips.
Thanks guys, means a lot. I was the littlest bit concerned about the color when I saw the sale posting but as soon as I saw it in person I fell in love right away, the photos simply don't do it justice. I certainly don't regret my choice at all. Planning on tinting the windows and possibly adding the lip spoiler. Any ideas and/or things to look out for?
About 32,300 miles when I got her, nearing 33k miles now. Indeed, I feel like the tint will make it seem like a completely different car.
Side note - anyone have suggestions for best radar detector? Experience with them etc. - which one would be most accurate, least false negatives, etc. and best value?
Compliments and congrats on the new ride! I think you did a great job finding a low mileage GS with the lux package for that price...Enjoy it to the fullest!

nice! I only have 14,000 miles on mine haha
I have a Beltronic StiR Plus installed radar and laser intercepter for laser defense.
Its a custom installed unit but its ranked as one of the best. Pricey but if you plan to keep it for a while its worth it IMO. Also depending the install if you change cars you can have it removed. Also look at al proriety for laser defense.

I have the Escort 9500ix and love it. While it's not the most expensive unit out there, it provides a great value and gives me everything that I was interested in.
You may have to do research & read reviews on what features you're after in a radar. Without a budget, it's a bit hard to recommend something.. there is a big range in radar prices.
Laser detectors are legal in my state - you may want to check into that for your state as well. All the best.
