Ok first off.. Welcome to Club Lexus.. Secondly Navigation is only available on 2002 GS430's in Canada and was never available on '98 - '00 GS400's or the '01 GS430..

So depending on what year you are looking for a Silver GS400 should be no problem to find.. Just depends on what year car you are looking for..

I know of a 99 Silver GS400 right now at a Toronto area Lexus dealer for sale but it doesn't have chrome rims..

Hope that helps.. If you need more info let me know!

Ken

Thanks! I am aware that the navigation does not work in Canada, but I would still like to have that features for other reasons. Toronto has a half dozen GS's that meet my criteria except for the navigation. I have contacted the Lexus dealer in Minnesota and they are working on it. Im hoping for a 99.

Would you take a US Spec GS and ship it to Canada, or would it have to be canada spec?

I would take a US spec GS. I have checked with the people who are responsible for bringing cars in from the US and its fine. There are only two differences between the US and Canadian GS's and they are very minor.

Do you know of any GS's that are for sale with all the options i want?

Nope no navigation on Sasha's ride..

canadags430,

What are the importation fees (Duties, taxes, ect ect) associated with bringing in a car that is less than 10 years old into Canada.. Also on the 99 GS4's state side the Navigation unit wasn't DVD based so how would you be able to use the Navigation DVD CD on a unit that cannot read it unless you just want to use it for driving in the US.. Just curious if its worth all the trouble..

Ken

If Sasha has no Navigation system in his GS3 then explain this pic of the interior of his car...

fgs,

Notice the colour of that car.. Its Spectra Blue and Sasha's GS is GREEN.. I believe that is Dex's car but I could be wrong.. So to sum up.. Sasha does not have a factory equipped NAV on his car..
