Very sad to report that this past Tuesday my GS300 spun a bearing and is now dead in my driveway. Mileage on the car was exactly 340,516 so I got a lot of life out of her. I have not decided what to do with it yet, but I did replace it with a 2013 ES 350. Going to miss driving around my dented up/oxidized/scratched up GS .

Bummer! The ES is probably faster with the 2GR, but hardly the character and run of a GS....

Would love to mess with a 2JZ engine one day....But for now my 98 GS4 will have to do.

Passed 300k and had to replace the factory alternator. Parts cost more than the replace the whole alternator.

299,100 on my 2001 GS430, it's been garaged and superbly maintained by both previous owners before me. Absolutely everything works like new, I hope to see it make 500k, the way I drive it'll take 20 years :-)

Default 2003 GS430 ... 247k and counting

My 2003 GS430 has 247k on the clock and having a few issues with cooling and suspension right now. Need to replace the original shocks especially the rear that sounds like a squeaky bed frame every time I hit a bump. I think I've diagnosed a coolant leak as a water pump weep hole issue and looking into it more.

Only issues I've found is the door lock accuators don't work and trunk remote doesn't work minor issues but she's still running!
