I have 2 GS400s and 1 ES300 the car was on Ebay and I Bid it to 8,300 paid a little more then that but I think its worth it, Like I said it feels like brand new but I also realize its 14 years old.
I really don't know if I should do the timing belt or not as I really hate to touch/take apart this car its to nice LOL!
Will post pictures of the two cars shortly.
The silver GS400 (200K) I bought I did starter, Alternator, lower ball joints, Lower control arm, and sway bar bushing's
I also had the famous rattle when going over bump put new rubber O rings on brake caliper pins and it finally stopped the clanking over bumps getting ready to remove and install new painted fender car runs like a top after putting new plugs in it.
Will post a bunch of pictures soon of both cars.
This site has helped me a lot and I want to thank all you guys that contributed!

 

You mentioned a GS430 so i got confused....

 

i thought i got a good buy on 2000 gs400. awesome looking car and that is amazingly low mileage.

 

Tmf that was someone else mentioning they're own possible gs430 buy....I wanna see the two side by side.

Your two gs4s that is

 

congrats on the pickup, a very clean and fine example of a gs400

 

That car is super clean bro & I thought my GS w/ 60K miles was low, lol.

You should check out the NELOC section on this board and swing by our meets.

8300?? Geez anything under 10 grand would be a steal in my opinion, you're looking at years and years of trouble free driving, I'd rather buy that then a lot of newer models, they were just built so well

 

Here's More Pictures of the Newer GS400,
Thanks guys for wishing me good luck!
The only problem I have now is half of me wants to drive it all the time, The other half wants to keep the millage off it! LOL!

 

super low mileage! car is clean!

I was looking at the newer models but I think they are made Cheaper/Lighter to get better gas millage I am hoping to get 10 years out of her going to get it rust treated if it will help.
Going to get harness so that I can use Nav to play DVD ecx.

 

Assembled like a Swiss watch

 

Nice, I'll have my 1998 silver with 42k miles in NJ soon.

 

more pictures

 

Really clean ride!

 

Got a few minor problems like clicking noise in reverse (something to do with rear brakes I think ) and slight vibration in steering wheel when cold going 60mph.(?)
Other then that the car rides and handles like a new car it feels really nibble compared to my other 200K silver GS.
The 200K GS feels more responsive when giving it throttle I'm going to change the plugs in the 48K to see if that will make it feel more responsive like the 200K GS.
