sold my GS400 on Aug 20th, i've got a few things for sale in the for sale section and then after that i probably won't be around CL anymore. i just wanted to thank everyone for their support over the years, with both my 1st gen and 2nd gen GS.
unfortunately the story of my former GS400 didn't end well. i just found out a couple of days ago that the new owner wrecked it on Aug 24th, in the process killed himself and one of his passengers. apparently he was speeding around a curve that was known to be dangerous and has had fatalaties before. it's been very surreal thinking about how just over two weeks ago i was driving my kids around in that car and then just a few days later it was totally destroyed with two young guys losing their lives.
please be careful driving your cars around the street.

wow? i heard about that crash on the local news a few weeks ago. a lexus packed with teenagers and a 27 year old speeding somewhere in ellenwood, ga.
what a weird and as you put it surreal series of events. i could understand if you decide to stay away for a while. that's serendipity at its simplest........
takecare sbgs400, come back from time to time to share your newest vehicle obsession.

k.r.e.a.m. that's the one.. i missed it on the news, just happened to find out about it by chance this week. seems like it was a pretty terrible wreck, car flipped two times and then hit a pole. totally destroyed with the AJC report saying there were pieces everywhere. i didn't know the driver before he bought the car, but he seemed like a nice guy that had his stuff together.

When I was 16, without my license, I took my Dad's 6 week old Corvette out for a joyride. I'd done it at least 4 times before with my Mom's Oldsmobile so I thought it was no big deal.
Needless to say, I rolled the Vette 2 1/2 times before it rested upside down with me in it...without a scratch.
People don't realize how powerfull the GS4 series is and often tend to drive it past it's handling levels. This is a very sad story, but at the end of the day, I'm glad you are telling this story and that your children have a father to raise them. My heart goes out to the people that lost their lives.
