I just picked up an 06 GS430 triple black for 3,500. Front struts, brakes, and a fuse about 400 bucks and it drives like a dream. I also have an 06 GS300 awd. Love the lexus brand!!

I almost bought one JDM spec 2006 LS430 silver with black interior and red walnut trim. ODO around 150k but the seller ( a friend on mine) kind of stalled so I looked for something else. 2008 GCC spec GS300 (FE not FSE engine) pearl white. amazing car but that 3UZ FE V8 is something else.

I'm in the UK and I see 136 on the road, including one of mine, also 58 registered off road, including one of mine!

I'm planning to get another one back on the road this year! ☺️
