Good Car...like many, I understand, the radio display failed after 3 years. Water pump problem found and repaired while in for an oil change...repairs all under warranty.

I purchased a 1999 Lexus GS 400 with 103,00 miles in June 2023. My friend's dad no longer drives, and I got a fantastic deal. It was in overall good condition and had decent maintenance. I changed all the fluids and did a timing belt service shortly after purchase. The original 24-year-old timing belt was in good condition and could have been driven on for longer. Gas mileage isn't great, but the V-8 driving experience and smoothness are exceptional. I'm impressed with this car and plan on keeping her for a long time. I will replace the driver-side mirror and front bumper and then have a body shop fix the paint and do other minor body work. I plan to complete it within a year. The last thing after that is the front driver seat is slightly worn. I will look into options to get that restored.

The GS400 is inspiring

A truly great car. I have owned it since Aug. 1999 and would not trade it for many of the newer cars out, except for a newer Lexus. This car has had no mechanical or interior problems since I bought it. I love the acceleration of this engine and the smooth handling at 120mph. This car is the best of approx. 20 or so I have owned in my life so far. I have looked and test driven several others and this is still the best by far of the mid-luzury sedans.
