Default The RAREST second generation GS...your opinions..maybe make this a poll

I think I may have a decent point. I'm thinking that my car is pretty rare. I have an 02 Sportdesign, fully loaded with Nav/ML..in Millenium silver...02 had rare silver piping on the leather, and blackwood..black and the charcoal color were available in 02 and 03, but 03 didnt have blackwood, or millenium silver...so the millenium silver SD in 02 is really the only chance of gettin that combo...am i right?

Um.. I wonder if mine is rare too..
when I bought the car..1999 GS 300 pearl white
it came fully loaded with factory GPS and factory cellular phone in the armrest
although no cell phones Co. can ( or want ) to activate the cell phone
not that it matter much these days..'cos almost everyone own a cell phone these day.. even a spoiled 10yrs brat has 'em too
but it's still able to dial 911 for emergency purpose only
so I kept the phone.. just incase I ever need it ( ever forget to bring your cell phone or battery run out of juice?)

so far I haven't seen many GS 300 with GPS in my area or dealer
mostly the ones that comes with GPS is GS 400
BTW.. is memory seat and memory outside mirror standard on all GS 2 gen?

ya i would think that the 03 sport designs with the saddle interior and maybe Nav/ ML and Graphite Grey Pearl would be one of the rarest out there, or anything that is a white exterior with black leather...

yep- i'm a BIG FAN of that setup. all those need is a 2jz gte swap to really be the ultimate GS. they're ALREADY the rarest ones out there - to have one with a gte swap - omg... it would win car show after car show after car show...

Sounds like we all have a somewhat unique GS, mine is ML with no NAV.

It took me literally months of searching throughout the midwest to find my combination. '02 GGP on light gray interior, blackwood. I wanted either GGP on grey or white on saddle and I wasn't gonna settle for anything else. Both must be somewhat rare since it took me such a long time to find one.

Isn't that the royal sapphire pearl that came on Supras 97-98? I thought I've seen some GS and SC's in that color but it may have been aftermarket paintjob.

I thought mine was rarest, 03 Sport Design in White with Saddle Interior. Saw 3 02-03 Sport Designs in NY during the past year, none had the saddle interior.
