That was the first thing I did when I got mine. Shout out to the ClubLexus forums.

Dead ass mine has been stuck in winter mode for like 2 years and now it looks so clean

So I’m not the only one🤣

Mine doesn’t stow. I have a 2001 and a 2003 gs430. Neither stow

Get rough with them. They’ll go.

Change the belt my man. These are interference motors so if it snaps so will a few of you valves. The car deserves it.

@@gibsonwill18 I did a couple of months ago, the car deserved it

how do u drive a salvaged car? u never been pulled over and got in trouble for not having insurance?

@@shakky9749 a salvage car is a car that has been in an accident, but mine was repaired and was and is perfectly drivable.

@@manohoo so in california , we would call that a rebuilt title, as you got it repaired and went to get it certified by ref or dmv (not sure) that it was repaired. you did all of this?

I have 2 gs too 2001 gs430 and 2002 gs300 I really love these cars, I bought my gs300 in 2007 and my gs430 in 2015 check out my Instagram page princewilliam2jz

Underestimated cars. I feel these are going to go up in value soon.

I agree. I mean we’re talking about $40K-$55K cars for $2K-$6K. What a deal!

Gregory Freeman lol I was just talking with my brother how these GS 400/430s will go up in value and then I check my comments and saw this... it was crazy timing!

Indeed! I have a 2001 gs300 and a 2003 gs300 sport design.....the craftsmanship is top notch....and the lines are timeless!

I think the newer gs 350s are fire but everything else is ass gen 2s are 👑

The best thing about the '98-'05 GS versus the later ones is the inline 6. So many great luxury cars going back to at least early 60's had the inline 6 and for good reason. A v6 just isn't the same and likely not as smooth or sonorous. To be fair though, I haven't driven any other GS than my 2000 GS 300 which I've had since new. I do like the gens 3 and 4 body styles, but also not as much as gen 2.

FACTS!!!!!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍

I think the 2nd gen GS is the best one and has always captured my heart.

i have an 02, and i very much prefer the second generation. that’s the gen i think of when i hear gs300

Thank you so much and thank you for stopping by. I wish you the best in your car search!

UAE have left hand drive system. U can also import from Japan. You will find old Lexus cars in very good shape there and mostly right hand drive.

@@explorehunter Then it wasnt UAE, it was some other country, im not sure.

Come to UAE...it's very easy to get here for cheap and good condition !!!

@@rydarp21 i wish,but too young now to do that,im barely 18 in the process of getting a job just so i could drive a sweet lex :)

I just bought a 2001 gs300. Love it! I agree with you man. It's a great ride

Bought one back in may last year. Love it

I have 99 gs400 I love it !!

I have a 2003 gs300 but I like driving my 2002 BMW 530i more. The handling and acceleration of the BMW is much better

I just dropped the motor in my 2001 gs ... also have a 01 is300

Nice! I have a gs430 too

@@callister4941 me too mine has a touch screen it s an 03

how has it been so far?

@@omieecivic269 Hi, It has been awesome and still is. I had couple of things done to it to make sure it will run well (new cambelt kit, new radiator, new brakes, new fluids). It's a powerful car but yet sensitive for any imperfections... tomorrow its having its yearly service as it likes to run on fresh oil, clean air and good quality petrol... it definitely deserves it 🙂

You should check out all e39 bmw all the inline 6cyl are reliable but the v8 is trash, that car was way ahead of its time

All cabin filters are located in your glove box on Toyota/ lexus. Not really a secret

Ahh , yes, the vindow vipers. 😉

Should I pay 6k for 109k for 1998

It really depends on condition and the market you’re in (i.e California vs North Dakota). If it’s almost perfect, $6K is acceptable. Any issues at all should be removed from that asking price.

I did know about this one but decided to do it in an upcoming episode. One thing I don’t like about it is it seems to encourage movement beyond the limit switch. Thankfully I believe the gears are metal in there!

@@ForwardMomentum not sure if the motor for my wheel is dying or the range is just so short. I always try to extend it as far away from cluster as possible never seems close enough. Leggy guy with short torso lol! Keep up the gs videos

Hey! You may not have seen part 2. I cover the visors there. Cheers! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iaqcasedvZa6ooE.html

I own the same car.

What color is your GS? Mine is sage green. Simply beautiful!! 03.👀👍🏾

Did you remove your fog light assembly and see the white dial

Maybe I just didn’t pay attention. Did you find something?

Thx! No, I did not cover that. 99% of the time that’s a bushing back there.

Awesome! I grew up in Seattle so I know exactly what you mean!

Forward Momentum Oh thats awesome! When I got the car and used the wiper in the summer mode, it kept making a loud “bang” whenever it went down. Thats what made me think it was broken initially. But I plan on keeping it in winter mode since it rains spontaneously here quite often.

Thanks for the kind words and for stopping by! I’m on the east coast. Welcome to the GS family!

Awesome! I’ll check that out. If I find it there I will mention it in the next vid!

Forward Momentum check my channel when you get a chance I will be sure to mention and shout you out in my next vid!!

Caleb Medley sounds great! I’m already subbed to your CH so I will see it when it comes out.

You were correct sir! I didn’t see it because over the years (prior to my ownership) the lanyard pulled through and fell down in there. I will add this update to my next episode and give you a shoutout!

Forward Momentum no problemo!! This what we here for, fellow enthusiasts working together!!

Toyota techstream!

@@Golo1949 I had no idea, thank you.

Me too! I was a lot attendant at Ford though. 😝

Report back when you hit 500K! That’s awesome!

Reporting back, just tried the wiper trick, that worked and the cabin filter, unable to try the key extender at the moment but im sure that will work also. Cheers.

sold my 98 gs 400 with 225k miles back in 2011 when i moved to nyc. i loved that car

Same here 3rd hand tho (even mileage and year😂)

Those engines were made to last 300,000 miles I have one with same mileage

Good to know. Thank you😅

Thank you! Back in 2012 I paid $7K; it had 112k miles at the time.

@@ForwardMomentum funny thing is you paid 7k almost a decade ago for yours and its still worth 5k-6k NOW even with the additional miles .... Very hard to find an inexpensive pre-owned "premium" midsize sports sedan that you can buy cheap and it doesnt really depreciate any longer. Thats how it works for a nice example of ANY car. 1st. They loose value quickly (like all cars) 2nd. That depreciation slows almost to a halt ( its possible to sell a nice example for CLOSE to what you paid(used) 3rd eventually the values will go up up (Yeah I know DUH!! right?) But take notice that this DOES NOT happen to 80% of pre-owned autos It takes a Sexy/Timeless/ design and of course a strong track record/Reliable machine ect... For this to happen. So right now is the time to go grab one if you can ...I mean if NOTHING else the inline 6 3.0L 2jz under the hood will fetch $$$ (GS300)

Thank you. I got the floor from a place called Garage Flooring LLC out of Colorado.
