For your consideration: '98 GS400 with 51,xxx miles, Alpine silver/black leather, loaded except for nav and heated seats. Texas/Georgia/Arizona car, 3rd owner, never seen snow nor much rain for that matter. I'm in Casa Grande, more or less right between Phoenix and Tucson.
Mods are:
Daizen bushings (no squeaks)
TRD strut brace
SRT intake
Tanabe Medalion Touring cat-back exhaust
L-tuned lowering springs
KYB performance shocks front/L-tuned performance shocks rear
Ruff Racing rims gunmetal w/polished lip 18x8.5 front 18x9.5 rear
Falken FK452 tires 245/40/18 front Toyo tires 275/35/18 rear
Clear/red tails w/ blue reverse bulbs
Clear corners w/ blue bulbs
Trunk net (most useful mod of all!)
Car is thisclose to mint, even has original spare tire and first aid kit in the trunk. The only marks (as seen in the pics) are a small ding on the lower rear bumper and a ding on the roof rails about 3/4 down the rear windshield, one on each side, all of which happened at the same time when the car shifted during shipping to me. The rails cannot be fixed (plastic) but can be replaced at a cost of about $250 each, which never seemed worth it to me. Also there is a small star in the passenger side front windshield which has been repaired, the small star is all that remains and will not spread. These are minor things obviously but I wanted to disclose everything I could think of.
Price: $16k and for that price I'll pay to have the timing belt/water pump change done before turning over the car. Obviously it's nowhere near the 90k mark but it is 10 years old and worth doing anyway. If you'd rather do the timing belt on your own I'll take $15k for the car as is. Price is firm, I don't really need to sell it but am willing to, but I won't come down on the price. Good luck and thanks for looking.

Thanks Slim. This car is worth every bit of $15k, and at $16k with the timing belt change I'm actually getting less than $15k as we all know how much the timing belt/water pump service costs. If anyone finds a lower mileage '98 in better shape than this with over $5k in mods by all means let me know!!

Well yeah I'd have to pass on that, not looking for trades, if I could find that one person who realizes the value of what he's getting then I'd part with it, if not I'll just drive it another 15 years trouble free and that'll be ok too.
However I'm sure I could find someone willing to trade say a '97 Intrepid if you're interested.
