well thats you and not me, this has nothing to do with you, i don't care if you like two doors, im stating that I like 4 doors better and thus a GS400 would be the way to go. I have younger siblings that im responsible for and cousins too, if were at a party and get bored, there's only a few of us with a license so guess who gets to drive? I do, thus this is why i like to have 4 doors. I also like to cruise around town just mobbing with friends to the meets, driving with friends is much more fun than driving with nobody.... :P

I used to roll around in my mom's impala before she took it back 98% it was just me in there, and 2% were with the women i dated/friends. So for me it was a waste of all that space. If i had to get a 4 door it would a 98+ LS or GS 430, those are comfortable and it's a Lexus!

nah I never found out, I contacted him about his SC300 but not the sc400, And i think its pretty final, I just talked with the GS400 owner earlier this evening, hes letting me do 2k cash and a post dated check,

heres some info:
186K
new waterpump and timing belt and idler pulleys done by toyota technician done last week.
new ac line, will need a recharge though,
Black on black, comes with vip curtains, paints in good condition, could use a buff to remove some swirls clearly seen in pictures.
Tags paid ;D
ISx wheels
Megan lowering springs
5 speed auto
vvti 1uzfe
this car is cheaper than the sc400 and has what i want and then some.
owned by a clublexus member on here too.

ide take a gs400 or a sc300. gs400 would stay NA while a sc gets a turbo. especially if big performance isnt your goal v8 power is all you need.

yes sir clean title, water pump and timing belt done last week of sept, and looks to be in decent shape, of course when i get it ill be going over the car, checking motor mounts, transmission mount, oil/transmission gaskets, valve cover gaskets, head gasket, PS leaks, and hope the AC doesn't have a leak. it needs a recharge, and hes replacing an AC line too atm.
