If your thinking about a swap contact one of our FL members ''lexforlife". Hes done a few swaps and his prices are very reasonable.. He just completed a GS recently but has done another GS and a few SC's.. He's working on a IS right now.. GL..

I just picked up my first Lex, GS4, and it is a darn nice ride. My wife fell asleep in it on a short 1 hr trip and couldn't believe she didn't wake up, it was soooo quiet. Even on interestate highway changes to a complete stop and get going again, she never woke.

Makes me wonder if I should sell my Buick Park Ave Ultra and get her a LS4....

I found a sweet GS430 out in Virginia, but my wife didn't like the black interior (I didn't mind). She has an eye disorder and the black makes her feel completely blind, she is afraid of it.
But the car is SWEET. PM me and I can send you contact info.

And price is VERY GOOD for an awesome shape GS430.
