Default Good Bye Lexus: Out with the old GS in with the new G

Hey NELOC fam, I just sold my 2001 GS3 and replaced it with my new 2011 G37xS coupe that I have been leasing since the end of January. I will miss the GS but I am definitely having alot more fun in the '11 G coupe. I will always be part of the NELOC fam as long as you guys will have me and hopefully wont boo at me or call me a traitor during our next meets.

2001 GS3 with 143.8K miles, SRT intake with ECU, and Tanabe Medallion Touring Exhausts. Sold for $3500 to a friend and business partner of mine.

2011 G37xS Coupe, Premium package, Navi, Sports Package. Enkei factory 19s, 4 piston performance front brakes, etc etc fully loaded. $522/month lease $0 down for 24months.

Good luck with the new whip.

thats a pretty nice deal on the g37,, i'm shocked you couldn't get at least like 5k for the lex though. i sold a 99 gs400 exactly 2 years ago with the same mods for 9k with 110k miles on it, and i prolly could have got 10k for it, so i guess 2 cylinders 2 years and 30k miles is worth about 6k¿¿¿

Sweet deal your friend got for the GS. The only ugly thing about the G37 is NY's new plate design and color. Have fun!

He was a friend of mine and he needed a car and its a quick sale and I see him everyday. I can still take care/play of the car whenever I want lol. Besides I couldnt keep the GS, if i could I wouldve, had an insurance lapse on the GS for 420 days so the vehicle itself is banned from the road for 420 days. If i were to keep the gs it would just be sitting in my driveway for 420 days, rusting away
