Hello, I am in Turkey and my budget is enough to buy a GS300.
Since this brand and these vehicles have a very rare market in my country, there are not many knowledgeable people I can get advice from.
There are only 2 sales ads for GS300, which already has a maximum of 5-6 units in my country.
One of them is in very bad condition, I would like to consult you for the other one.
Is this vehicle worth buying? Will it cause a lot of problems because it will be very difficult and very expensive to find spare parts and service in my country.
I will use the vehicle for daily use. My goal is to get used to RWD vehicles and to experience drifting on some bends.
I share the advertisement link of the vehicle. turkish 2nd hand sales site. I can delete the link if it is not in accordance with the rules.

Yes, cars are very expensive in my country. You can't even buy a brand new Hyundai i10 at this price.
The link you sent only opens for turkish, or unless you sign in. Maybe you can post pics of it!
Ive been to turkey several times, lol I have never seen a lexus gs ls. Majority diesel cars! Its interesting to see they converted the GS to lpg. The GS isnt really a popular car for drifting, its hard to get them to unlock traction control. Also, not sure where in turkey! But turkey has a lot of mountains it would be super difficult to drive a rwd in the snow and going up steep mountains. If you can find an awd that would be better.
Yes, in Turkey in general, Lexus has a very low market share in our country. Due to the expensive fuel and taxes in Turkey, small volume engine vehicles and gasoline diesel and FWD are very common.
Turkey is a country where there is more than one climate and geographical diversity living in all 4 seasons. I live in istanbul. for the last 4-5 years only a few days of the year light snow falls. so the roads are for full rwd vehicles. I don't think this will be a problem.
Sad to hear the news about traction control
Well, would engine problems be sad and troublesome for this mileage vehicle? What are the chronic failures?
