1998 Lexus GS400 Silver 143k
I bought this car about 3 years ago with the intention of building a twin turbo V8 setup. Eventually, I moved onto other projects and lost interest in building this one. I used it as a backup car for the past few years. But then I bought 3 more cars lol. So this GS400 just sat around for a while untouched for the majority of the 2-3 years. I think I only put about 3k miles on this car since I bought it.
It is a 98, so the condition is on par with most cars of that age. Paint is a bit dull in certain places and can probably be buffed out. The only place clearcoat is peeling on the roof, nowhere else has any peels. I had the hood, front bumper, and fenders painted to get rid of the rock chips it had. I was eventually going to do a full repaint, but never got around to it. No major accidents or damage. The body is straight.
Interior has the Clazzio leater seat skins freshly done and still in perfect shape. Radio has been changed out to a Sony head unit, the display on the original radio quit working. Currently sitting on the stock 16" wheels. I put the chrome 17" on another car.
The car has a 3.76 gear ratio rear end installed in it. I built a custom intake for it due to the stock air box fittings being cracked(common on GS400's). Also, I built a custom power steering reservoir tank because the stock one was leaking.
Everything on the car works. Sunroof, full auto windows, AC/heat, AC servos, and all the door lock actuators still work!
Clear title 143k miles.
I'm running out of room for all of my car collection lol. So this one has to go.
Priced at $5,000 which is below what most are selling for because it's not in perfect condition, and I have no room for it. I would give it a 6.5/10. Put in some elbow grease and you will easily have a 8/10 car without spending much money. I just don't have time to put much effort into restoring the car.
