Hello my name is Jp im new to this site i have owned my gs300 for two years it was my dads he had it since 2003 so i bought it off him when he wanted to sell it. I am excited to become part of a community where people who know their cars can help people like me learn about our cars.

I would have never guessed this thing wasn't a normal engine based on the wheels and the headlights, very surprising. Now that i'm driving my gs300 more, im realizing why people really love these cars
