IMHO, the 2G GS is such a great car that it simply defies it's ridicilously low monetary value. My GS cost me $6G.. but driving this thing is priceless

Yeah, but regardless the fact that you can get a GS for 6k-8k EASY in CA with less than 150k miles is something you couldn;t say a couple months back :P

Yeah the gs still turns a lot of heads... Even folks with newer cars take a look over at it and they can be had for so cheap now just like everybody else said! The gs or any 90's/early 2000's lexus's besides the ES imo are the only cars I feel confident buying with high miles. Go toyota
