I used to drive around 40k miles a year, now a bit less, but still a lot. So we shall see how long it holds up! My Fleetwood I drove for around 3 years and put on 110k miles, then I picked up a Buick Park Ave and went from 67k to 177k in 3.5 years. Now I have the GS4, will see how it holds up, at just shy of 150k miles now.

I have a 1992 ls400 and a 1998 gs400 the gs400 has a smoother more powerful drivetrain but the fit and finish is Toyota quality the ls400 is remarkable in the fit and finish it's a tank. So if think the persuit of perfection is digressing

98 GS300 with 216xxx on the body, 250xxx on the engine. Old engine took a dump and the higher mileage engine runs like pure sex!! Engine is getting swapped to a GTE so it will have less that 55xxx km's on it soon. lol

250k and the car still runs strong and doesnt smoke or burn oil. I think the chasis will die before the drivetrain. It is effortlessly quick although I dont think it is as fast as it once was. Im even still on the original starter. It is starting to show its age tho. The bolt and cam that is used for rear wheel alignment is broken so I never get a perfect alignment and the rear needs new bushings but she's still rollin!

Just passed 169k miles..... No issues other than brakes and ball joints and I need to do caster arm bushings and intermediate pipe exhaust leaking.
