Default Replaced GS430 - Sell or Keep as a build car?

So I just purchased an X5 xdrive50i and was focused on getting rid of my GS. This afternoon I began wondering if it was worth keeping as a build car. Would love some input here!

2006 GS430 w/ Upgraded brakes, intake, tires, etc. - nothing remotely serious.

My understanding is that there is not much we can do build wise (understanding that I'm power focused).

In any event, if someone is interested in a '06 430 - let me know.

Wow, I just looked it up and someone has almost the same name as you and his post was right under yours. But I would keep it as a build car. There as parts for it. Look at these pics. Except for tha park bench spoiler lol oh and they do make a turbo kit. Look at this...

I just got a 2012 IS-F to replace my 2007 that was modded (kit, wheels, brakes, etc.) . I thought about keeping it also, but decided to part it out. Good luck in your decision. If you want parts, look up my for sale post.

Thanks for the responses, I certainly don't have the time for all of that ISFdude. Nice car though!

I've decided to put her up for sale - let me know if anyone is interested.

Sorry to revive an old thread but did you ever sell your GS430?
