Default It's finally here; boy I love this car!

After searching for the perfect GS4, I finally got one. It arrived on a covered
transport a couple of days ago. It's a 2001 GS430 Black Onyx with cream interior. I have to say, having owned many Lexi in the past, this one is just amazing. The ride, and comfort is second to none(I know this comes from a guy who already drives a new BMW with 3500 miles on it). I've read about the dreaded ball joints and had them checked by the Lexus dealer to be sure.
The wheels would be first on my mods list BTW. Hope to learn a lot from the experts on the GSII forum to keep the car running in top shape.

Nice find. If you ever need help with mods and such just shoot me a PM. A lot of Dallas people here refer to me as the "local GS guru" lol.
