Default Looking for a 98 > GS4

Im getting ready to retire my 2001 Honda Prelude and ive narrowed it down to a GS4. Is there anyone out there that can give me some insight on the best places to look for one. Also is there anything i should look for in my search to find one. Any help is appreciated.

I just went throught the same process. I took a long time and finally found the car with the options I was looking for (nav, HID, 17" wheels) which made my search a lot harder. It seems that out of the GS line, about 10% are GS400 compared to GS300, and of the GS400 only about 10% had the nav systems.

Any way, here are some of the online sources I used to search for the car.

These are just a few. I hope this helps and Happy Hunting.

Briton,

Not sure where in SC you are located (how close to Charlotte), but if you give me some idea what you're looking for I'll keep my eyes open here. I'm planning on going into the local dealer (Hendrick) on Saturday so I can browse around.

The basic decisions you need to make are:

- Navigation Y/N
- Upgraded stereo (Nak or Mark Levinson) Y/N
- Color preference
- Wheel choices (16 or 17 from factory)
- HID lights (most GS4's have them but it pays to check)

Theres a bunch of other stuff like heated seats, phones etc that didn't make a big difference in my buying process. I DO wish I'd waited and looked more for a NAV car.

Im lookin for a Black or Silver GS4 with dark interior. I definitely want 17's, upgraded stereo, nav, and HID lights. I am definitely gonna hold out until i find the exact one i want. If i end up selling my car this weekend, i will just get a cheap car for the time being until one is found. I appreciate all of your help and already feel welcome on this web board.

Thanks Again.







This is what i have for the time being:
