My ex co worker installed all the SD stuff on your car. I almost bought this car but when I was ready to buy he wasn't ready to sell. Car was in mint condition when he had it.

You should make a list on the first page of everyone on this forum with a 2005 GS 430 and color combo, wondering how many are on here.

That would be you sir I drive/enjoy mine daily

I know my car was originally sold in Cali. The guy I got it from had it in Vegas for over a year before me. All the repair orders I have show my car having at least 3 owners ahead of me. Still in mint condition when I bought it.

Thats a good idea making a list of color combos..

Its not on purpose that I don't drive it daily, its that i have 2 other cars I cycle thru but I don't mind putting miles on it. I when I drive it i put 700 miles on it in one day sometimes. Plus, I live like two miles from work so I'm a lil picky about driving it 2 miles, the car isn't even warmed-up when I get there. I like to atleast drive it 15-20 miles one way or i just don't put any on it. I rather it sit than drive two miles but ocassionally i break my own rule cuz i miss driving it..

I Do, i have alot of specs on all GS's the GS460 in 2011 is the least GS built so far. i'll post all of my PDF's for you guys..

But the 2005 GS430 is the least built for 2GS body with the 430 motor..
I'm loving this comment.. haha 500 LFA's vs 422 GS430's in 2005.

I see more GS460s at work than GS430 of either generation. All rare nonetheless.

They made alot of GS460's in 2008-09. In 2011, they only made 44 or 46 of them I cant' remember but under 50 for the last year GS460.

So these stats are usa only I assume? I wonder what the stats are for Canada? I have a 2001 gs430 canadian car blk/blk. I think its pretty rare. i looked for years.

Yea, I always look in my rear view mirror when I see a 2gen GS go by and 90% of the time it's "just" a 300. If I do see a GS400/430 it's rarely a nice looking one; well, not as nice as mine

713gs430

I was fortunate to find one. I have a millennium silver metallic w/ black interior 05' GS430.
I had a black 01' GS430, until some girl rear ended me while I was at a standstill in traffic (she was coming onto the ramp going about 50mph) and the collision caused my car to be a total loss. She was texting while driving, smh.
So on the hunt for months and came across this one (which was completely stock, except it came w/ screens in the headrest a bonus lol). Bought it in 2010, Dealer here wanted just about $18.5k for it (it had under 60k miles), but I brought my cousin (who works at Lexus) and we dropped it down to $13k drive out.
The 430 v8 models may be a gas guzzler, but boy, do I love the punch it has when I hit that gas pedal! lol

Hello to the 422 Club

Thanks to 1QWKGS4 for the great info here. Bought a 2005 GS430 Millennium Silver and Black interior with 68k this last March in San Diego, one driver, great condition and total stock - paid 13.5k for her. Inside door tag reads 11/04 for the production date which is probably one of the last ones built as per wiki page "production of the third generation began on January 24, 2005." Speaking of which if your interested in the reference section of the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lexus_GS Wiki page you can find the company's Q10 reports for years past and find some interesting gems on production and sales.

I may be selling mine soon if anyone is interested.
