Default Which would you choose?

Ok i am in the mood for my next lexus. So we have the '98-00 LS 400 or the '01-04 LS430. What i want you guys to help me out here with is which should i consider. I want you guys to help me nail in the final decision as to which to get. I have researched both models and still not enough Keep in mind i am looking for a used lexus. My current one is a used '94 LS400 with 213k miles and still going.... Anyway i will await your comments. Ohh one other thing is the price i prefer it less than $35k if possible

P.S. One other thing i would like to find out about both cars are PROBLEMS if any?

For $35k or under, I'd choose a 01 or 02 LS430. Comparing the looks of the 98-00 LS400 & 01-04 LS430 is subjective, but other than that, the LS430 is a big improvement over the LS400 IMO.

no doubt choose 01-up, you can find a decent one with that price range for a regular model, but not the UL tho...

01+ LS430. Personally I think it is a totally differnt car from the others. You already have a 94 LS400 and I don't think the 98-00 LS400 is much different in terms of looks than what you already have.
