Default 1998 Lexus GS400 White on Black...

Just putting it out there. No rush to sell. This is my second GS(final draft) and I've owned this one for 5 years now. I've meticulously thought out every aspect of what went on the car. My intention was to build a clean classy sporty machine with a touch of sophisticated modernization. Clean title of course. All maintenance up to date. White on black interior. Super rare combo with only 131,xxx miles on it. Just had fresh new oil and filter changed. Tranny fluid flushed. Recently did alignment. This car is good to go and the next owner should be one happy lucky person. Location is in SoCal specifically the 626/909 area. I've put a lot of thought into what a more than fair asking price should be and that's why it's listed at $8,995
Onto the list and pics...

Wheels/Tires:
Work XSA 04C step lip (crystal silver)
19x9.5 +12, 10.5 +9
Nitto NT555 (lots of tread left)
Project Kics neo chrome r40 lugs w/key lock

Suspension:
BC Coils w/custom 16/14k spring rates (less than 2k mi.)
Cusco front and rear sway bars
Cusco Front strut tower bar

Engine/Performance:
SRT intake w/race ecu
Tanabe Medalion Touring exhaust

Lighting:
01+ Tails
JDM 10th anniversary Headlights (black chrome inner housing)
Land Cruiser quad fog lights w/halo rings and led bulbs
Led's throughout the interior along w/license plate lights

Aero Parts:
TTE rep front lip w/badge
UGO roof spoiler

Other Goods & Accessories:
Wood steering wheel w/chrome L emblem
Wood ashtray
01+ instrument cluster
Chrome shifter bezel
Rearview mirror w/compass
Auxiliary input
Audio hack
Heated seats
3m Crystalline CR70 full tint including sunroof & front windshield
Black LS600 mirror covers w/led turn signals & puddle lights
Folding side mirrors
Black chrome L trunk emblem
Black chrome trunk bar
Black chrome GS400 license plate frame
01+ hood grill painted gloss black
Bumper grill painted gloss black
Roof painted gloss black
Rear lower bumper insert painted gloss black w/white strip
Gloss black painted brake calipers with Lexus/L decals
Carbon fiber wrapped engine cover
L tuned steering ecu

That's pretty much about it. No crazy body kit or overly aggressive wheels running lots of camber. Not slammed to the ground with fancy curtains and pillows. No jacked up wheels or messed up fenders. Just a mean clean sexy daily that you can take onto almost any lift to do maintenance work while still giving you that luxury look and feel. Onto the pics. I'll try to post some of the interior when I get a chance but I can assure you the interior is superb! Any other questions or to schedule a time to look at the car call text James 818-601-6888. Thank you!

haha i have some gold vs-xx's at home in restoration.. BUT not gonna lie I've already entertained the idea of selling my tc and my gs300 to buy your 400..

Have you replaced ball joints (upper/lower) bushings, etc? Just curious how much longer all the suspension components will last if I really do end up buying your car.. lol

(out of curiosity) What car are you moving on to next?

Wow that's quite the move lol.

Yea I've done the lower ball joints, bushings...some not all.
The coils are really new, only like 2k mi on them.

Not sure which vehicle is up next. Up in the air still. So many options but I am leaning towards a truck (Ridgeline/Avalanche) bc of its capability to pull a boat and dirt bikes which I may plan on getting. Plus it would be a nice change to be elevated after driving lowered cars my whole life for the past 17yrs.

Bump for an amazing car!
If I didn't have a 2GS I'd seriously consider your car.

Love the white color
