TI II-NotAnother2ndGenGSBuildThreadButOhWell
Well, Back in June my GS was totaled. I was rear ended coming home from work. Pissed but it was a blessing. Sold off some parts I knew I would not use and was on the fence about what to get next.
I really was looking to get a Audi S4 or even an SRT8 Magnum. But then set my mind on searching for a 03 SportDesign, 99 GS400, or GS430. I wanted black interior, so my options were limited. I ended up finding four SD's for sale locally. One white/saddle, two black/saddle and silver/silver GS430.
I really was interested in the the GS430 but the body had some wear and the navi was on the fritz. Checked out the white/saddle 03 and in person did not like the color combo.
Weird but when I saw it in person I just didn't like it. Plus, the front and rear bumpers were resprayed poorly.
The black on saddle was listed for sale on here, but was sold before I could purchase it. I ended up picking up a Black/saddle 03 SD.
Modest modification, 19's coils, basic maintenance, done. Me and my wife just brought a house.

The pearl white on the 98-00 GS's pops more than crystal white. The white/saddle GS had some wear all around. Notable the botched front and rear respray on the bumpers and the Dr. seat was "fixed" to hide a tear.
The onyx/saddle I brought interior was near mint. Headlights, front and rear bumpers not a scratch.
IMO, The saddle pops on onyx, and graphite grey SD's.

that interior is seriously mint looking. can't get over how clean this looks.. Seeing that trunk lid makes me want to go spoiler less... i just might do that when the car goes in for paint..
I'm on megan ez. Anyone on megans did you have a hard time aligning? My drop is pretty conservative. Shop told me that the camber is maxed out. They were able to get the toe within spec. But the camber is -2.2 all around.
