well

if you talking about GS430 then it's has to be 2001+ 'cause they wasn't making GS430 before that.. as one of the survey showed that people rather spend more and get 8cyl car instead of 6cyl car i'd get 400 .. 98 is the time when they start making.. as far as i know nothing *majoryly* was change since 98-00 so i guess it's all goes to how much money you want to spend.. if you have few extra dollars then better get newer car.. if not then 98 is perfectly fine too
