1993 with 293k

I have purchased this car new in 93 and enjoy more now that when I first bought it. Besides the recommended maintenance, including 2 timing belts and getting ready for my 3rd one, the only thing I had to replace was my power steering unit an brake calipers. The only items not functioning at this time is my coffee cup holder, lights on my dasboard and radio. If I get a door ding, I fix it right away. I resurfaced the front seats, but have no cracks in them. People are truly amazed when I tell them my car is 14 years old and has 293000 miles on it, using a quart of oil every 3000 miles. When I buy a new car it will be a Lexus.

One of the most beautiful car in the 90s. Very reliable and luxury, looks and performs better than most new cars today, I mean A LOT better. With the proper maintenance, this car will last you FOREVER! Did I mention the car was originally designed by Giogetto Giugiaro as a Kensington showcar for Jaguar in 1990.

For you idiots who read this, I just want to say that this car has potential with that 2JZ engine. Do a JDM swap if ya'll are crying about power because there is a way to twin turbo it. Plus, if you want to NIP out the car, there are plenty of modifications for it, even making it 6 speed manual tranny if you like. The engine has been tested to push out with hp in the 900 range. Its too easy, you do the MATH!

i am disapointed with the resale of this car. I had it for one year, and lost a ton of money on it because it was impossible to find somebody to buy it privatly. There just is no market for these used lexus's where i live. Never again will i buy a lexus, knowing now what its like to try and sell it, and how much you loose!

Not that reliable

I bought this car with 130 miles now it has 175 and it's given me problems, water pump replaced, radiator, fix the timing, brakes, tires, 2 window motors, major transmission problem, check engine light is on. Since I had this car it's been parked a couple of times for 2 to 5 months at a time. It's hard to fix and expensive too. By the way we do change the oil often and try to keep up with it. This car cost us $6.200 but with all the repairs we done to it cost us well over $10.000

After 215000 miles this car still runs like a champ. I will definitely go with Lexus again. Yes, it is expensive on repairs, but worth it in longevity.

I just said fair well to my dear gs300. I didnt have it that long,maybe a little over one year. The car gave me issues but the previous owner didnt take good care of it. I bought it for 1400 and had to put 3000 of work into it,ever penny was worth it. I loved driving it! I loved the design of the interior and exterior. Even though there were some issues under the hood my dear gs never left me stranded. If you have one of these,take good care of it, I will miss this car! Excellent vehicle!!! kudos toyota/lexus

Excellent build quality, fair performanc

Excellent, long lasting quality throughout the car. At current used prices, a '93 or '94 GS300 offers excellent touring comforts and potential for many more years of trouble free service at a price lower than even the cheapest compacts. This car looks great, but the 220 hp inline 6 isn't a road burner. Too bad there wasn't a manual transmission option.
