After recently saying goodbye to my CLS 63 AMG due to heart failure (and a lack of a heart 'donor' here in Korea), I decided my next ride will be something reliable, yet cheap and comfy. I purchased a used ES350 but then I got an itch to upgrade. Fast forward 6 months, and just yesterday I travelled 300 kilometers to pick up this 2014 GS350 Starfire Pearl with around 80,000 kilometers (~50k miles) in an absolutely pristine condition inside and out. The same day I drove back and gave her a good wash.
On my TO DO list:
1) Carbon fiber front lip
2) Carbon fiber rear diffuser (no trunk spoiler)
3) Interior suede wrap (in a classy lamborghini kinda way, not the ricer style). Since I have a black interior, I'll mostly go with dark purple or navy blue (dark blue) color. Maybe a grey color
4) RS sound deadening DIY on the door panels and aftermarket speaker upgrades

Thanks for sharing! Looks great and it's always fun seeing pics of the car from other parts of the world.
I definitely want to see what you do on the interior - While my first thought of purple was a bit overwhelming, the right color dark purple could be nice and definitely unique. Look forward to seeing more pics!

Thanks for the kind words, I was really surprised at how much I love the car, I really think it has the best of everything. Next car will be a GS-F for sure lol. I'm thinking of starting a Youtube channel to go over all the DIY mods I'll be doing to the car, so I'll update this post once I start.

Love the 1st years 4th Gen GS, That's a Fine one you have there. Thanks for sharing from so far away.
Only has the car for a couple of months but I’ve been busy! RSR downs springs, Invidia axelback, AEM intake, vinyl wrapped roof, smoked all the lights, tinted all the way around including the front emblem, Tanabe strut brace, some carbon fiber accents inside and out! R-1 rotors with red calipers, black wheels (they’ll be upgraded again to staggered 20’s eventually)

Oh, that is so sexy! Good lawd!
p.s. Could you let me know what wheels those are?

they are Niche Vosso replica wheels which I was able to get for really cheap through a company called IPW based out of NJ. They are a little tough to get through any normal vender but I’ve got a direct connection. If you’re interested in getting some I can likely set up a drop-shipment directly to you. They come in 18,19 and 20’s and in multiple widths and finishes. As a rough estimate, I can probably get 18’s for about $130/wheel 19’s $155/wheel and 20’s for $180. Shipping will vary depending on the size and where you’re located.

Thanks for the information and offer but unfortunately I'm half way around the world
