It's time to let my baby go.. It's a rare blue 1998 Lexus GS400 with a 4.0L V8 300+hp 5speed automatic transmission.with 170k (drives like it has 70k! come and see for yourself!) The car is Fully Loaded with Leather, tilt steering wheel upon exit and entry. Has factory Navigation! The car has been modded. It has Tanabe exhaust, Discontinued Rare TTE front lip molded into the factory front bumper, 01+ tail lights, D2 Coilovers, Lextreme Torque Converter, front and rear TEIN strut tower bars, Supra TT 4piston brakes up front w/ Slotted Rotors and Hawk Pads, SRT air intake w/chip, HID's installed in the fog lights(factory lexus ballast and D2S/R bulbs from Lexus RX) to go along with the factory HID's in the headlights, B&M transmission cooler (just for added protection of the transmission).. Transmission shift's butter smooth (ALWAYS replaced fluid every 15k). I have also replaced the steering rack bushing to eliminate any play, had both front end-links replaced to get rid of common clunk noise. Every bit of service has been done on time by a Toyota mechanic (shop foreman). of all the maintenance parts replaced, no aftermarket parts were EVER used.. has brand new replacement ac system and clutch ($1800- a/c clutch went bad and i replaced both that and the compressor.. a/c turns on smooth and quietly unlike common high mileage cars), had a crack in windshield and had an OEM Lexus $1400 windshield put in vs cheap $300 windshields. Recently replaced rotors and pads in the rear with oem rotors and Hawk Pads. I also replaced most of the suspension pieces up front (felt sloppy so had it replaced and its like new!) and replaced the known ball-joint failure. the car is in immaculate condition inside and out. the car has ALWAYS been garaged and the paint will reflect that! mechanically the car is sound, not one issue! come test drive it! GUARANTEE you'll fall in love!.This car has been meticulously maintained from top to bottom. Everybody keeps telling me not to sell it, but i need an SUV now. Oil changes have always been done on time every time or early (when i used to work at toyota i did the oil change every 2K. come see it!
CAR IS SOLD THANKS GUYS!!!
Additions:
- I just last week put 2 brand new tires in the rear Front are at about 85%
- I had a chance 4 yrs ago to take the seats out of an 01 GS430 with 43k so i swapped the front seats and rear seats and chrome trim around the shifter and the black with silver trim gauges and the notorious cracking/fading armrest. So the interior is in great shape!
- Car has oem Black Pearl emblems
- Within past year i replaced front and rear sway bar bushings
- 3yrs ago, i replaced all engine and trans mounts
- Navi has most up to date hard drive
- Upper A-arms upfront were replaced 2.5yrs ago
- When i had the lip molded into the bumper i replaced the front and rear chrome strips molding also
- 4 years ago, i swapped out the floor mats with new ones from the dealer so it would be FRESH
- H&R 15MM spacers up front and 25MM spacers in the back
I'm asking $9,500 OBO thanks for looking guys! please keep comments related to ad!

I did the timing belt at 95xxx mi, so you'd have another 14k before needing to do it.. well, obvoiusly i think the asking price is fair considering the amount of upkeep i've done to the car.. to each his own, pm me any reasonable offers!
