I love my 98, but I think I found a pretty good one - great shape, low mileage, oh yeah, BLUE. It was just timing for me, or would have bought new.

Think about this: if you can find a jewel of a pre-owned, jump on it and put the money you saved into the mods & upgrades. Again, what I've done.

I mean, you're gonna mod it either way, whether you think so or not....

I eat my words every time I see DaveGS4 becasue when we first hooked up in Charlotte, I had just got my GS and said something to the effect 'yeah, I think I'm gonna keep it pretty stock....' Then I rode in his.......WRONG Its been a labor of love $ince....

Hey Dex,

After looking at your Blue Baby I am getting the itch to mod our GS but the Mrs won't let me except for wheels this coming summer..

NA1,

Welcome of CL and I hope you go with the 2000 GS even thou it is Blk/Blk (Not my fav colour but some really love it).. But the 2000 model has all the bugs worked out of the car in my humble opinion so thus this is why I would go that route.. Hope that helps!

See, there's your problem:

Replace mod with UPGRADE or IMPROVEMENT

See? Like this:

Honey, I'm going to UPGRADE the brakes on your car to Brembos - that's how much I love you.

Honey, I'm going to UPGRADE the acceleration on your car with a new torque converter and intake - that's how much I love you.

Honey, I'm going to UPGRADE the handling on your car with new sway and strut bars - that's how much I love you.

2SAVVY,
actually the '00 GS4 I mentioned is silver/gray, the '98 GS4 is blk/blk..Gray interior looks kinda dirty to me, but black car is just pain in the *** to keep clean so I guess it's a tie.
MEMYSELFNMYG300,
My NSX is '91 silver/red (Sparco racing seats)
Mods are HKS exhaust, Comptech header/cat, K&N intake, ADVAN Model 7 wheels, WingWest front lip, M's sideskirt, some stereo mods, some other accessaries..
The only problem is I live in Vancouver Canada so it might be quite troublesome to ship the car to State??

Car has 58k mile on it, no accident.
I want 54000 CAD for my car (which is around 35000 USD depending on the current exchange rate).
I can send some pix of my car through email if you want
