Thats definitly dried up formula milk. Great pickup. Dont let people over-critique it. $3500 is a great price.

Thanks guys. This car was obviously well maintained. Strongest engine of ANY car I've owned (not 'most powerful', but strongest if you know what I mean..). It responds like it's new. It was nice, the previous owner must have had all the lights replaced recently, they all look like the car just rolled out from being assembled, and they apparently took care of the lower ball joints, which I have yet to inspect.

The stuff on the seat came right up and I'll have some shots from after the detailing as soon as I get the camera back. I've got to say, it feels amazing to own one after the search I went on. I've always been fond of them since they came out, but I guess I had to own a handful of other cars before it was right

I'm going for a somewhat conservative look. Mild aesthetics mods, some 18''-19'' wheels, a very minimal drop; not too aggressive. Just trying to make the best of what Lexus was already going for here. No body kits or slamming. Just something I can pull up to a business meeting in. I'm pretty curious right now how the Gold Metallic GS look with semi-smoked lights and the kinda gunmetal gray emblem/text. I guess more specifically, if it can be done without being too "loud".. If anyone has any pics of smoked out/grayed out 2GS in a lighter color like silver or gold I'd love to see em!

Thanks for all the comments guys. I'm a very happy owner. More pics on the way.
