Looking for all GS300 owners down under in Australia.

So far I have aloysius, BLK13X and vscalais (myself).

Love to hear from you.

Cheers, Dave

The colour is Black Cherry Pearl (3P2) with Ivory interior. Right Hand Drive in Australia of course.

L-Tuned car mats front and rear. L-Tuned badges. Looking for a set of 18" L-Tuned OZ Salina rims.

Cheers, Dave

Didn't know a GS300 other than a Sport Design came with a wood steering wheel.


Or wood ashtray.

Finally I can have an ignition on the left side of the steering wheel. Now I'll have two cars with that!

Not many of us here

u guys are a rare breed in Oz... every time i come down under i never spot a GS...
If you're in Sydney come down near Cronulla/Burraneer Bay (where I live), you'll spot one every 10 minutes.

I barely post photos of it, so here's mine! Super stock Hopefully will be adding some wheels and suspension sometime this year then on to 2JZ swap. The ride height is mega embarrasing but I won't lower it until I can afford a set of nice coilovers lol



I heart my steering wheel.

The second generation GS300 still fetches a high price in Australia, anywhere from $9,000 to $20,000+. In Australia these cars were $100,000 when new.

Also we never got the GS400 or GS430 which was a real shame!

Maybe that's why you don't see many, and we love them so much.

Cheers, & happy New Year.
