I definitely recommend one if your looking for a fun first car too. It won't worry you parents too much because its a midsized lexus 😀

    I just bought an 03’ Aristo with the 2J and I’m bout to go pick it up this weekend I’m so hyped, I think the complaint about the size is whatever though cause my Challenger was roughly a little bigger but with the right power the weight didn’t matter so I’m excited to daily my new Aristo❤

    I love the GS300. I want to buy one as a daily driver. I just absolutely am in love with the styling of this car, and it's reliability if properly maintained! I won't do power upgrades, I won't drive it hard. But I will throw a nice set of wheels on one and probably some coil-overs and lower it enough to look good, but still ride smooth. 😄 I want to keep it stock, as it'll be the daily to keep the miles off my pick-up truck, and it's such a beautiful car with even just a few cosmetic upgrades, I'll be so proud to drive one as a daily! I love the NA 2jz too, cool motor in a cool car, even if it's not the turbo one lol.

    I drove my Lexus GS300 stock for 20 years with 90k without knowing it was a special car. I just liked how peppy and fun it was to drive. It has several issues now with the ABS failing, stock navigation system blinking out, and the paint on the hood and top are pretty much gone, but that engine is STILL purring like a kitten and very peppy with almost 300k. It was babied in a garage for 10 years then my wife gave it to me when she got her SUV and I got rid of my Nissan 300Z (which I still regret). I love how much power it has for a standard sedan. Very hard for me to give this car up. Some car racing guys got excited when they saw my car and I was a bit surprised. Also, a bunch of drag racing happened near my work after hours while the cops were not looking and my car fit in quite easily - "Go ahead take your turn". I was like "um, can I just go home please?" I am not a motorhead, just a fan of the car.

    Owned a 99 Aristo with the GTE engine. The car drove incredibly nice even with lowering springs. Only had it for 5 months before selling it. Was not the most reliable daily driver. Had rear tie rods for the All wheel steering. Definitely not a first car for people. Only came with 4 speed auto trans. Has a traction and stability control system that is not really possible to completely turn off so you couldnt really drift it. Still drove amazing and miss the car alot. Prices have started to skyrocket since I sold mine. Great video guys!

    I bought a silver 2003 GS300 with 78,000 original miles about a year ago, so far i did some paint correction to get rid of the rock chips and I've put gunmetal grey 18 inch rims with performance tires. Next I'm upgrading the suspension tinting the windows and adding a bluetooth audio system. In the near future i am planning on doing the Aristo turbo swap and making it manual six speed. I'm looking to add horsepower to the tune of 900 to a 1000 horsepower to make it the ultimate sleeper.

    I have a 2000 gs300 that I have been building for a few years now. It's pulled a tip speed of 164mph and all I have done is rebuilt the engine and in the process added cold air intake and bigger injectors and changed the fuel pump and custom fuel lines. I have drilled & slotted brakes, full carbon fiber body kit front back and sides. Sits on 3 piece 19" black with a polished chrome lip. Full air bag suspension. Carbon fiber hood that looks like the OEM hood. Complete custom stereo, Pioneer 8inch touchscreen with all the extra features clarion speakers all around with a Alpine 4 ch 1000watt amp and a single ch 3000 watt amp to power the 12 in JL audio w7 with custom built ported box. LED halo projector headlights with matching fog lights and custom led taillights with smoked lenses. Cat delete exhaust. And a few other things I have done to it. Work in progress. Best part is it only had 60k original miles on it when I got it. From the original owner. Has 76k on it now. I LOVE MY GS300. It is by far the funnest car I have ever had.
