I bought my GS430 about 1 month ago. I drive to work and run errands "sometimes" in it and put less then 200 miles a week. Its a 2001 with about 77xxx miles as of right now. Bought it with 75xxx. I have 2 other Honda Civics who have been my loyal friends since I can remember. Also have a Nissan maxima but I just can't seem to hop out of the GS and turn on my other cars. ;-) its just too addicting but when I manage to break my habit ill let you guys know......

Atlanta, car looks great! More people should post pictures of their's!

Here's a fresh picture of mine, just finished installing my coilovers. Took forever with a few stripped bolts.

Mine's a garage queen. In just under 5 years I've only put on 30K miles. Only driven in the rain once since I've had her. My wife still bugs me about buying rims and snows for her
My DD is a 99 Max with 175K. I do about 500 miles /week for work.

I do not DD the car. My parents were very generous a couple years ago and gave me their 1999 GS400. They knew I always really liked it. I'm very lucky! I remember going to the Lexus dealer with my parents when my Dad fell in love with the GS and then ordered one. The engine is so smooth it feels like an electric motor. It is the gold color. It has 64,000 miles. My parents used it for touring trips only since they are retired and was stored every Winter. It even still has the original brake pads! I have driven it 8K in 2 years but not to work. Its a baby. Another garage queen. Perfect example of "walk softly but carry a large stick". SPEED LIMITS SUCK!!!

coilovers. I would never trust springs if they dropped the car that low lol
