White 2000 GS400
Wife is looking for a new ride and this one has to go. It was previously supercharged but that was removed just over 3 years ago when the wife took over day to day driving. Most of the options are still on it though. You can find previous for-sale from 4 years ago here and you can compare.
I do not plan on parting it out and significant preference is given to local buyers. Now $9K
White 2000 GS400
Approx: 72000 miles
Here's a brief rundown of mods on it.
More pictures and a former oil analysis is available but these are in this old gallery and this new one. I haven't cleaned the car up at all. This is what it looks like after a week or so of driving.
The fine print:
I'm going to detail all the things that I would expect/want to know if I were buying the car.
Hopefully I'm not forgetting anything. I've got pictures in the gallery of most things mentioned above. If you have any questions please PM or better yet ask here so others can be helped as well.
Thanks for considering.

The fine print:
I'm going to detail all the things that I would expect/want to know if I were buying the car.
- I've done regular oil, filter and fluid changes with either Royal Purple (First 8 years), Mobil 1 or Pennzoil Platinum
- The brake pads front and rear are 3 years old
- The tires are just over 3 years old.
- The AV-3s have some curb rash but more importantly have brake dust (love those Pagids) burned into them. The fronts suffer the most. If you aren't all about looks (which obviously I'm not) they may do. It is horrible keeping the wheels clean with the Pagid pads. Worst case you will spend ~350 per wheel to get it looking good as new. Best case you leave it as is or put snow tires on the AV-3s and pick up another wheel more your style.
- The left and right front lip have been scraped up by curbs/driveways
- The hood has bogus paint chip fixes and a couple of chips.
- There is scratch in the right rear bumper. It has been there for 9 1/2 years. Too small for me to care.
- The parking brake didn't work for about 5 years but then I finally fixed it when it became the wife's daily driver 3 years ago.
- I had the timing belt and water pump replaced about 3 years ago (~60K miles)
- The hood liner is marked up from where the old supercharger intake used to rub.
- I've tracked the mileage this past year and it is averaging 17 MPG. Typical suburban driving.
Hopefully I'm not forgetting anything. I've got pictures in the gallery of most things mentioned above. If you have any questions please PM or better yet ask here so others can be helped as well.
Thanks for considering.
