Pics of my ’06 GS430: 140k miles later...
I recently hit 140k miles on my GS and I thought it would be a good time to post some pictures of the car at this stage in its life. It’s never missed any scheduled maintenance and has easily been the most reliable car I’ve ever owned. Enjoy!

Very nice Sir!!!.
How does it feel compared to when you first got the car? I am wondering how the suspension components are holding up.
Mine feels like new at 75k miles. I put 8k in last 5 month..

Thanks for all the compliments guys.
The wheels are IForged Trials: 20x9 front & 20x10.5 rear
The tires are Falken F452 245/30/20 front & Falken F452 275/30/20 rear
My 1/4 panels haven't been modded (shaved or rolled) and the wheels fit in there perfect with no rubbing even w/ 4 adults.

I bought the car used from the original owner so I cannot say how it felt when it was new. I can say that it does still feel super tight. Even with the Tanabe's, there's no creaking, clunks, rattles, nor is there any play in the wheel. Since this car basically lives on the highway, the wear on the suspension components is much less than if I drove it in the city or stop in go traffic all the time.
