Default New from SoCal.
What's up guy's, just picked up a Onix Black Non-Moonroof 98 gs300, coming from owning/modding DSM's for the past 6 yrs . Finally got an Opportunity to get a 2g Gs300 . Got it 2 weeks ago today and right away got some Eibach's on it and so far I love the car !.. Future plans include doing the Aristo TT swap and just making it a clean DD..

Welcome. The rare non-sunroof 2GS. Almost as rare as the non-sunroof & cloth interior 2GS.
