Hi, Up for sale is my Black 1998 GS400 in Los Angeles/SanGabrielValley, 91780. Milage is 137k. I was a avid clublexus member and know my car very very well. I will tell you the pluses and minues over the years of owning this car, you will not get as comprehensive of a look over even if you took it to a experienced mechanic.
First of, I accept CASH ONLY, price is $$8500, if I dont sell I will part out and do a trade-in.
Other than a perfectly mint 1998 GS400, this one has some positives and minuses:
Services Done to the Car:
Belts, Water Pump, Spark Plugs, Engine Mounts, Ball Joints, etc.. All the regular service has been done by Longo Lexus or Luxury Motorworks. Engine oil has always been synthetic since I owned the car. Fluids have been flushed twice since Ive owned it.
Pluses and mods:
Tein CS coilovers with 20,000-30,000 miles
Daizen Sways Front and Back
RMM Front Strut Bar
Optima Yellowtop Battery
Lexus IS350 Wheels
Large Stainless Exhuast Tips
Inner and outer Red/White LED Taillights
Eclipse Audiophile headunit (was worth 600-800, no internal amp)
Phoenix Gold PG amplifiers one 1200 watts mono one 400 watts 2ch
JL Audio Components in front doors
Sony Coaxials in rear (currently not hooked up)
Liquid sound deadening in trunk! (serious stuff, not a 1/2assed job)
Titanium Tint 15%
Chrome shifter
2003 Lexus GS front headlights (replaced original 1998 ones)
4 gague streetwires wiring throughout car, top quality audio connections.
2x 12" Diamond Audio Subwoofers in a sealed box (bolted to the car so it doesnt move)
Hids bulbs replaced recently
Both doorlock acuators replaced in front doors
leather sides to drivers seat replaced
Viper alarm system installed (do not need to activate, but can use if desired)
Rear fenders shaved and covered with paint
Black front grill
Various small upgrades I forget
Minuses:
This car has a salvaged title (really nothing at all to worry about, rear collision, properly fixed and have had 0 problems over the last 4 years, no vibrations at high speeds, etc...if you are shoping for a car this age, you probably wont be caring about the title)
Front and rear bumpers need a repaint (as do all 1998 GS)
Front right rim has a bend, still holds air perfectly, needs to be fixed.
Front tires need to be replaced soon.
The car runs very quiet and like-new, I still drive this car somtimes and am amazed at its power and smoothness and I currently drive a 08 G37.
Title is in hand, again, cash only.
I've put alot of love into this car... if anyone out there is looking for a car to use as their daily driver, or fix up, this will be a great start.
Pictures up in a few days.
