Hello all

Im from Texas.
I just picked up a 99 gs300 with 104k original miles.
I've been wanting a gs for years and finally bought this one.

Future plans are simple, wheels, drop, tte lip, retro ls460 projectors,
Led tails, and a roof spoiler. When the engine blows I might go for an
Aristo swap. I did just do the front and rear mains, water pump,
Timing belt, and oil pan gasket so this thing should go another 100k with minimal issues -_-

Welcome! You've got a while before "the engine blows".
Might as well do it now. >=)

I just paid cash for this, hopefully it will last long enough to recoup the expenditure.
Thanks for the warm welcome.
