For sale is my Lexus GS300. I've had it for 3 years since 59,000 miles, and I am the third owner. The first leased it from Pembrooke Pines Lexus in Florida. It has 123k miles and is fully loaded with the rare auto-leveling factory HID lights, heated seats, and SportDesign package (one of 3200 made in a 2 year span with several differences from the regular GS, a review of which is listed below) The SportDesign is part of an effort by Lexus to bolster sales of the GS, now in its fifth year and apparently not due for a makeover any time soon. The GS300's keynotes are its 225-horsepower, 3.0-liter, in-line six (with button-type E-shift on the steering wheel) and chassis tuning that is slightly softer than that of the GS430. The Sport-Design interior gets special perforated leather upholstery for the seats, and a brushed-aluminum panel on the center console. More important is that it includes the wider 225/55VR-16 Michelin Pilot HX tires on polished alloy wheels that are found on the GS430 plus a sport suspension. About 3200 cars will get this treatment this summer. There is no compelling reason to buy a GS300 in anything but Sport-Design trim. At $4050, it represents just a $310 spiff above the $3740 Premium package's mix of leather, audio, and sunroof; and for $3250 more, or a total of $7300 above base price, it can be combined with the Navigation/ Mark Levinson audio package. It's a nice piece to drive, and it dials out the little bit of wooziness in the GS300's behavior at very high speeds. The car has full service history since brand new and had a four wheel alignment and safety inspection by Northtown Lexus (10/22/2015). It was checked by the dealer and was found to be in perfect shape ( have receipt). Recent work includes; - Four KYB struts - NAPA upper control arms and OEM lower control arms -MOOG ball joints, sway-bar end links, and inner/outer tierods with polyurathane sway-bar bushings all around. -OEM carrier/drive shaft bearing -OEM motor mount, steering rack bushings, valve cover gaskets. Throttle body was cleaned at the same time. -Door lock actuator motors (all 4) and timing belt/water pump at 62k miles by RGW LLC -Rear Brembo rotors and Akebono pads 1k miles ago (front with slotted rotors 6k ago) -NGK spark plugs, coolant flush, and brake fluid flush, at 100k by Northtown Lexus. -Regular cabin/air filters, engine oil, differential, power steering fluid, and transmission fluid changes. Premium 93 or ethanol free 91 gasoline was always used. -As for upgrades this car has clear corner sidelights, OEM Lexus G-Spyder wheels, blue-tooth with wireless audio connectivity, Valentine V1 hardwire, white LEDs in the interior lights and license plate/city lights, and 35% tint on the sides, and 20% on the very back with a lifetime warranty. This car needs nothing and I have receipts for all services and parts that have been changed on the car from brand new, 95% of which is from the a Lexus dealership. This is not a flood car and never had frame damage. All the panels are original with VIN tags attached with the exception of the front right fender/right front HID headlight, both of which were replaced with an OEM parts. The car was repaired by RGW LLC and I have before pictures of the car as well. I've had the Unlimited Delta Sonic car wash so it is always clean and there is zero rust/rot on or under the car. Reason for sale is while at Northtown Lexus, I found a GS350 I am interested in. Car comes with 3 remote keys, all the owners manuals and service records. If interested, or have any questions, please email me.
