New to the Club, Picked up an 01 GS3 with 11k miles
I thought I had an account with clublexus when I had owned a 1996 ES300 approx 4-6 years ago (had since sold it and picked up 2006 Scion TC) and after 3 years of the TC decided to look around for a replacement Lo and behold I found this gem.
I apologize if its just a link (trying to get reaquainted to posting on forums) The only issue I've come across after a day of owning it is the cigarette lighter outlet or the other 12v outlet in the center console doesn't seem to work when I plug in my phone charger in. Is this common or is there some sort of button that isn't letting the current flow? I plan on checking out several threads to see what people honestly have to say about these vehicles. I hear they're like tanks.

definitely good to know, I wasn't aware of this package until I was in the midst of purchasing it. I had it inspected and the tech gave me some details, i'd love to learn more about it if you guys can add info. I live in Florida so there is no shortage of older vehicles with low miles however I usually see more corollas and camry's than anything else. Unfortunately I'm uncertain of the backstory as to why or how it has such low miles, my best assumption is a snow bird owned it.

I would certainly have thought so but nothing is suspicious aside from the miles in question. The condition of both interior and exterior is amazing, interior is flawless, no scuff's scratches or anything, exterior has some scratches but of course it is 11 years old. head lights are clear with no oxidation. clean history report.
