Default GF bought a 2GS last night

So I've been looking for a new car for my girlfriend and came across this super clean white/tan 2GS with about 105K on it. Always dealer serviced, full service record, and old car enthusiast owned it, and it always sat in his garage. The car is super clean, looks brand new inside and out. Car is a 1998 GS3

I have a spare VVTi GTE engine, so I might swap this one next year as well.

We now have his and hers 2GS's

Haha. I'm car shopping for my wife too but she is only 4'11" tall. She sits in my car and her eyes just clear the dashboard. Not a good idea!!! Good luck with the GS's
