Default Just picked her up!

And I love it!

Hey Guys,
Well the check finally cleared and I was able to pick my 2GS3 up. And I got to say I love every bit of it. I've been so used to the bumpy ride of my MR2 and Mustang I forgot what luxury feels like lol.

The car is clean inside and out. Only a small dent on the front that you can only see in the right lighting. And a bit of bumper rash on the back.

I picked it up for 9300 with 98k miles. I attached 2 pics.. I was too busy driving it to take more lol.

Oh when I'm driving if you press on the gas with the right amount of pressure theres slight pulsating. Any clue what that would be?





Thanks,
Mike

As of right now I'm waiting to finish my MR2..get thewidebody kit on it and repainted and some minor engine work.

But afterwards I'm going VIP with the GS. not sure of I want to do a JDM swap or build the 2jzge. But minor things will be make fogs work on thier own. eyelids, drop it, 20 or 35% tinit. brighter HIDs, and that's about it for right now lol.

Whats the difference in the 01 tails?


Also does anyone know how to tell if the car had a 90k tuneup?
