Ive got a gs400 that ive put 43k miles on in the last year without a problem. Def the best car I've ever had!

[@markbailey6051]

I bought a 98 with 165k that looks and runs like new. I like the car.

[@2greedy307]

Same I love my car

[@targetegrat]

I remember real estate agent had this car in royal blue. That thing looked majestic in 90s.

[@monthied1]

You have that insert in the cup holder backwards. That's why it's not opening all of the way.

[@calebc4924]

what do you recommend for a deeper tone on the gs300 I just got a 2000 and I was wondering if a muffler delete and exhaust tips would be a deeper tone instead of raspy? Very nice video!

[@povnelson2019]

Flowmaster super 10 super deep tone, it’s loud, but will last a long time, not raspy, and will fit just about any vehicle bc of its small size.

[@robertgardner4508]

When I buy a GS300 someday, by the time the trans goes out I better have my manual swap all ready to go. xD

[@abdallahalsaid6342]

The GS300 actually comes with a 5-speed, I noticed in the video you said 6 speed. The 5 speeds and 6 speeds from toyota/lexus are bulletproof with no problems, the 4 and new 8 speeds are the more sketch ones.

[@neonreign2988]

The 4 speed transmissions in the old ES300s and Camrys were bulletproof.

[@ShowMeWhatINeedToKnow]

@@neonreign2988 Wrong; the U140E was garbage -- every single one doomed to failure.

[@neonreign2988]

@@ShowMeWhatINeedToKnow I believe that is the 5 speed you're referencing, I'm referring to the A541E 4 speed automatics in the 90s. Also, that isn't true, I had an '04 Camry that had 220K miles and the transmission was fine (annoyingly hunting gears and sometimes glitchy, but mechanically it was working, it never slipped).

[@ShowMeWhatINeedToKnow]

@@neonreign2988 - The U140E was available in the Camry V6 equipped with the V6 1MZ until 2004. They are all garbage.

[@neonreign2988]

@@ShowMeWhatINeedToKnow For "being garbage" it's still more reliable than every other transmission out there, I've seen multiple iterations of weak Honda transmissions go out prematurely (especially on their V6 engines). My 1MZFE also didn't burn a single drop of oil despite having over 220K miles on it, so it served me pretty well before I sold it.

[@LGD6767]

Hello, why your gear keeps changing at 70mph?

[@fabiopedroso722]

nice fix !

[@povnelson2019]

Thanks Fabio. We saved so much money doing the repairs. And we just sold the car 💰. 😆. I can’t believe how beautiful this car is.

[@ochukonewton]

This car looks too futuristic for a 1998 car wow

[@povnelson2019]

This vehicle was way ahead of its time. Thanks for watching Ochuko. 🙏

[@lifedroid]

There was even touch screen Infotainment system for these models too back in 1998! it's incredible

[@povnelson2019]

Just beautiful 😍

[@omr09]

This car still kickin ?

[@LushiTV]

I got a 1999 GS 300 I need help where you located?

[@trapsoulx]

Will maintenance be expensive or same as a Toyota?? I found an auto with 130000km

[@Dragon228833]

It is a toyota

[@fabianrodriguez626]

Nice car Nelson

[@povnelson2019]

Thank you Fabian

[@nylnylcodi7731]

When my dad has that car before he sell it but when I grow up I can drive this gs300 white

[@Saad-cu9ol]

Best car

[@povnelson2019]

Thanks Saad I appreciate you watching 🤗

[@fabiopedroso722]

how often does this car show up around?

[@povnelson2019]

I do see some. I see them with high miles all the time. But if I buy old Toyota/ Lexus I only buy low/ good miles.

[@badabing6474]

My ls400 1zufe is my baby to be.Atlantis blue mica with 94k clocked on it now.I would take this ride anyday.I can go 100 baby smooth up hill.Your ride is nice and great work you did as well.🤌🏼

[@povnelson2019]

Quality, performance, and beauty. 😂 long live Lexus. Thank you for the kind words 🙏

[@reaarayah6716]

Mine is stuck in park I think it’s the transmission sad about that 😢

[@05Elantra98GSGang]

Prob just the shifter cable bro

Hell yeah man 😆

[@1LorLel410]

@@povnelson2019 Found your channel about a month ago when I got my first car which is an 04 Camry, can’t stop watching now

[@alexmarcial6630]

Is 131k miles a lot for a gs3 1999

[@povnelson2019]

No, those are great miles! 😊

[@user-lb4xm6oy5k]

А если вам попробовать 2jz-gte? Вы с ума сойдёте?

[@denniswerth4286]

I have this car.

[@pinchevictor6945]

Buy my Nissan? I’m in Turlock

[@povnelson2019]

Bring it to the dealership.

[@shyngyskopbayev2666]

I feel like it has the same engine as a 97 Camry xle v6

[@Dame802]

Bruh that shit sound like a set if u hear closely

[@user-pi3fj1jl5o]

BIG mistake - video shows pouring in of Toyota WS transmission fluid. It should ALWAYS be Toyota Type 4. So much for 15 years of "knowledge and experience" and "we know what we're doing"...and "25,000 RPM on the freeway"... ...high revving engine. ?!?!?
