Default WANTED: Lexus GS430 LTuned

I've been on the lookout for a clean low mileage (under 100k) GS430 L Tuned. I've wanted one ever since my aunt bought hers brand new back in the early 2000's. Unfortunately she got rid of it a few years back for an AUDI...
Anyways, if you or anyone you know is looking to get rid of one or needs a little persuasion to do so, I would love to talk to them. Thanks!

good luck finding a 16-17 year old rare model car under 100k. there's probably only a handful of them left in the world. finding ANY 2gs4 in great condition with under 100k is challenge enough. took me 6 months to locate my 66k 2005. bought it 1st day on the market and the guy had multiple offers.

back then, there were very few bolt on parts for our cars.
nowadays they are everywhere.
why not buy any nice GS4 and simply add your own mods?
unless you are buying just for the collectability, there wasn't anything to the L-Tuned that you couldn't do better today with the aftermarket parts available.

How about Two under 50K miles? -- Depends on what you're willing to Spend. I know a few people with them including myself. One is already modded 1999 Gs400 with 49K miles and a totally untouched 2005 GS430 with 38K miles both in mint condition. I've pampered my cars like show cars and I wasn't really needing to sell but lately I've been thinking of downsizing to one car. I'm in NW Florida area. Both cars Garaged 24/7 and only taken out in perfect weather.



Edit: Sale Pending...

Not a factory L-tuned, but I have a 03 430 silver on black with ~115k, with an L-tuned grill and L-tuned side skirts with other tasteful mods. However I'm in CA. Price would reflect distance and milage.

1QWKGS4, clear some space in your inbox!!!

Thanks everyone who has posted thus far. I was interested in getting one more for the collector aspect of it. I don't drive my personal car much anymore since I've got a company car now. So I was thinking why not have something nicer on the side other than my SC4 which is by no means practical... HA.

Thread jacking but I've been trying to convince my dad to daily drive his black/black MY00 GS4 with < 100k miles. It's his garage Queen while he daily beats his Maxima from 2 decades ago. Am I making a mistake?!

The GS400's are pretty rare only made '98-00. I haven't driven mine much neither but the car is so rare, not many people these days know or even care about how special it is. It's just another Lexus to most people so I would use the car. You're not making a mistake. Drive and enjoy it. The car is not getting any younger.

What does "tuned" mean and why would you do it?

TRD based in-house performance packages

Before they had 'F-sport' they had L-Tuned
