Talking Privet from Cali

Privet Krasnodar (93 region code, am I right?)! Welcome to the club!

Nice looking car. Interesting looking wheels and the lip is huge. You get my respect for the car (I would expect around 80000 EUR for new GS300 with all the duty fees) and especially for the low profile tires, I know how shi.../bad roads might be in RU. Love the turn signals and license plates. Tell us more about Lex accessories available at dealers. You got to have a lot of attention from ladies because every other car is Audi-Bummer-Benz .

I was not driving in Russia for 20 years (Moscow). Can't drive on the roads without any markings anymore , I need lines. Maybe some day.

Why not 430? How is parking on curbs ?

Good luck and Poka

Hello guys, all thanks for attention and responses. Wished to tell you about that since new year 2009 the price in Russia have strongly risen both on new and used cars and it is certainly because of crisis.For example new GS 300 full option costs about 70 thousand dollars, hybrid GS 450 - ~85000, so u can see that`s twice what u have over there. As for used cars comming from USA (there are huge amount of them over here) for example GS 300 full option costs 38-40 thousand dollars.
Roads in Russia become much better in comparison with 90`s
Something to buy for a lexus is practically impossible only under the order and it is necessary to wait for a long time.
what about the color of my GS it`s really rare and I specially chose it, because one time the fashion was on black cars now on white............ I like it. i`d do something with my car with pleasure, i mean bigger rims, side skirts, and so on and on, but as i sad there is nothing in stock, i am just watching what u drive guys and i`m crying, 1st - huge range, 2nd - much cheeper

if availability of aftermarket parts is difficult to get in russia, you can always import them from japan or US. where there is a will, there is a way.
