Default First Lexus - and first post

Well, I picked up my GS300 on Saturday. It's a 2001 and just rolled 24K miles today. Black on black. It's pretty much a clean slate and I've got lot's of ideas already - just gotta spend the cash!

I'm not real mechanical - can get by with just about anything on my Harley but cars are a different story. So...first question is can anyone recommend a decent shop in the South Jersey/Philly area?

I'll post some pics when the sun comes back out this weekend - rain now.

Great site!

Welcome! You may want to post this question on the Maintenance forum and especially in the Northeast regional forum. Good luck!
