Congrats on the new purchase.... Oh I remember my very first gs (started a crazy obsession for me that I still haven't gotten over lol) I'd had other lexus''is prior (couple is300s) but wasn't the same as a gs. Congrats and good luck with the car, I know how you feel right now..... You forgot to mention you love the car lol. I felt like you do now on this day.... Aaaahhhh flashbacks lol

Congrats on getting a 430. As a 300 owner, I'm jealous....although I like my GS just fine :-)

Nice pickup buddy!! I love that color besides my black, if I were to paint my black it would be a dark gunmetal...

Wow, congrats, that car is stunning. Mine had a few thousand more miles when I bought it 3-yrs ago, but it really felt, looked and drove like a 1 or 2 year old car. I still believe these 2GS are better quality than later lexus'. Enjoy your ride, mod with taste.

I couldn't agree more with the quality statement. This GS was know to be built very solid and both the 300 and 400/430 engines are know to be rock solid reliable.
