The GS looks great for the mileage, way to care for it.

very nice!!!

How is the engine at 200K? Can you tell us what you have replaced, and any problems you had? I test drove 160K miles GS400 last weekend, it wasn't as strong as other lower mileage GS that I test drove.

Engines with more miles tend to loose performance as well, no matter the maintenance, the wear and tear will always be there, I got my GS for cruising anyways

I just recently had my 180k done at TM Engineering about 2 months ago. So the basic major 180k tune up: (all Fluids, timing belt, water pump...) I also had my MAF sensor replaced(went bad). Value covers resealed, had some oil leaks. After all this the engine is still running strong and car still pulls when I push it, well at least to me.
