Tail lights? Get that rear checked like mines =)

LovethatV8, Lookin good. Where did u purchase?

Can u post a pic of the front end? I have a replica ING, but unsure if I like the look. Yours flows well. Nice build.

 

I have an 06 430, 177k miles. I'm going on a vacation in a month and I'm gonna have some work done to it while I'm gone. What I am curious, I saw one time an LS rear bumper for the GS with the cool exhaust ports, who makes that? Also, how do I check the trans fluid? lol

 

You have your dealer check it.... I hope you kept up with your trans fluid flushes *yikes*

The transmission is sealed.

Aside from that, the LS rear exhaust ports are custom made from body shops, there's no kits out there.

 

Hello everyone,

I'm new to the forum so hopefully I'm not in the wrong thread but, I have my eye on a 2006 GS430 and it has 188k miles on it. Any recommendations or advice? I did browse a little but was hoping someone could help me out on their experience with them.

 

Yes, they sure do the creak comes from the right front dash where the speaker is. I took my cover off and in the corner put a small cushion and sound is gone

 

You will find this car to be a fun driver and exhaust sounds really great. I have 95,000 on mine and haven't had any issues at all the performance is great.
Make sure the timing belt and water pump have been done. See if you can get a service history if not you can go to the Lexus website and get full service history on it.
Gas mileage is great for a 8-cylinder. I get around 24 on the highway and 16 in normal city driving depending on if you have AC on or off Check the suspension to, make sure the shocks are good . Shocks are very expensive to replace place with ride control around $1500 just for a pair. You will have a fun car to drive. Dont overpay for the car ,

 

2006 has creak issues from the dash going over certain road condition but it comes and goes
