"Buy this car if you have the chance"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

This car has been great... besides the normal maitnence nothing has gone wrong. The 90K service was the only semi-expensive service. Oil changes are always done at Lexus Mission Viejo, a great dealer, along with all other services.

General comments?

I traded my 1996 Mercedes S500 for this beauty. The Mercedes had only 32,000 miles and was always in the shop. I was debating on whether I should buy the GS400, E430, or the 540i. I drove all three and bought the GS400 because of what you got for the money. I got every option including navigation, a rarity for that year. Everything has held up amazing. The car is washed every week and detailed every 3 months. Leather looks new due to always being conditioned. The car has close to 160,000 but you would never know. I took the car on a 5000 mile trip this summer and it didn't fault at all. I drive from Coto de Caza, CA to San Diego everyday which is over 100 miles round trip plus I do many business trips which equals the cars high mileage. Incidentally in 2001 I bought my wife a E430. I drove it on a trip up north and it didn't perform like the GS400 does. She now has a RX400h.
