hey so I'm assuming this is a bit of a stretch being that i just joined this. been around Toyota and Lexus cars a while now and decided I wanted to finally get a first gen gs. problem is in Colorado there are absolutely NO gs300s and the ones I have looked at look like they have been through rally cross and never given a bit of care so online I went. now the problem is I cant go flying around the states to look at cars and i found a few in CA and one in AZ if anyone would be willing to help me by checking them out I would be very appreciative. PM me or Email me at Guardrail989@gmail.com if your up for it. Thanks for reading.

I wish I could help, but I'm in CO too. Take your time though, I looked for 2 years for the right GS before i came across a nearly perfect GS. I found (back in '07) a 1993 GS, one owner, 51K, all service stamps in the owner's manual. Had to pay $750 over NADA Clean Retail Value, but so worth it! Found mine as a trade in at the Lexus dealer on So. Broadway. Original owners traded up, I scored their garage baby. Suggestion; you might want to put a word in with Kuni and Stevinson, they would be willing to contact you when something comes in. I snapped up my '93 so quick they did not have time a run a pic. There is a gold GS up at Stan's in Westminster, have you looked at it? The reason i suggest talking with the new dealer is that they will keep the nice stuff, it is their back-lot stuff that ends up at the smaller dealers. Happy Hunting, and looking forward to another local GS enthusiast. We need to work on some Colorado meets this summer. I see anything good, I'll give you a head's up.
