As much as I love my GS4. Ugh. Don't let the low buy-in fool you.

90% of them need a suspension overhaul. It adds up.

Solid car though. It's pretty nimble given the size, AFTER you get coilovers. It's a ridiculous boat from the factory. Will destroy most new cars with ease.

Basic Checklist for a solid 2GS.

- Get the 400/430. You want the V8. Same fuel efficiency as the 300 with more power.
- Black Interior
- Coilovers Tein/Stance
- Suspension overhaul. Ball joints, Caster Bushings etc.
- Black Interior.

Unless you have a full weekend free, DO NOT do an interior swap. So much ass pain swapping from Tan to Platinum Ed Black. Never again. I would, however, do it again for that Saddle/Black Interior. Yum.

maybe it's the reflection but the front fender looks bashed in also?

again, at this mileage, factor in the possibility of needing to do the timing belt/etc. service into the asking price... and watch out for the head gaskets.

I posted the first time and texted him. This is what he said.

Car is has clean title.
Older gentleman owned before me and had car in Vancouver during winter and Palm Springs during winter. The car had cosmetic sand damage and was re finished with new Chrome, lens, glass and paint so in in a 10/10 condition. I purchased only about 4 months ago and need a truck with my sales job.
Thanks,
I asked for VIN and conversation ended there. Ad is probably legit, and he may not know the true value of the car, but since it's in Kelowna, probably not many people willing to go up there. And that comestic sand damage seems weird. Going to Palm Springs and back would explain the high mileage.

We'll soon find out, as his ad title implies he will be in the lower mainland this weekend.

guy told me he was coming down to vancouver and I told him okay sure, I ll view the car with cash in hand.

he texts me and says that hes showing it to some guy atm and will meet me later.

later comes around and he said he had to go back to kelowna due to snow.

then i said okay? and he said he would come down on sunday again, and then a few minutes later he changes his mind and told me to meet half way. LOL?

i aint driving 2 hours when I told you I was serious about viewing the car with cash in hand, your loss buddy.

68style 11-21-2015 06:08 AM

You told someone who is very likely a scammer with a fake ad that you would meet them with cash in hand and then they try to get you to meet in the middle of nowhere... and you don't think there's anything wrong with that other than he is a poor salesman.......... :fulloffuck:

Are kids really this naive nowadays????

flagella 11-21-2015 07:17 AM

I doubt he was really planning to meet him with cash on hand...

Perhaps near aa bank where he's able to get a bank draft if everything is legit. Who the hell walks around with $25k cash on hand.
