My GS400 has 147,700 miles on it. Black/black, regular service and very strong. My best vehicle ever.

My 93 GS 300 has 224,000 miles the only problem so far is a broken crank pulley.

My 1994 GS300 has 151,000 miles on it and going strong. Usual maintenance issues. No major repairs. Use regular gas most of time with special liquid reformulator which cleans engine and burns clean. Also use MobilOne, 10-30, and change oil every 8,000 miles. Getting 23 mpg. I get junk mail from local Lexus dealer here in So Calif wanting me to buy newer model, but why buy a new one when this thing rides like a small boat, is safe, reliable and still looks new?

Just out of curiosity, how many of you with >100,000K on your GS400 had followed exact maintainance schedule as the Lexus manual & had your timing belt changed? My '98 would probably qualify for the lowest mileage but intend to keep it for the reliability.

This past summer I had a friend who drives a MB (5-series I believe) visited from Canada & he kept commenting on how quiet the Lexus is c/w his MB. I didn't even bother to brag about it's reliability. A colleague who bought a BMW 745 the same time I got the GS & that thing had been nothing but problem (averaging twice a year) for him with the car @ times being kept days in the dealership waiting for parts from Germany.

My 98' GS300 has 131k....Im thinking it could run for 300k>

2000 GS400 @125K and it purrs like a kitten. Recently I decided to keep it another 3-4 years or until it has 200K which ever comes first.

My 99 has 161,000. Change oil & filter every 5000 with regular 5w30. I think this car will easily go 300,000

New to the board. Bought mine with 112k. Runs like a champ!

Last year in November I bought a 01 GS 430 with 86k and it rides like a new car. I love this car!!!!!!! Currently it has 88,030 miles.

Ive got a whole 60K miles on my 93 GS300 (just bought the car).
MaxxDaddy
98 GS400 with 212k. I think I saw one post with higher miles but that was for a 93. Girl that had the care before me drove the daylights out of it but it still runs GREAT. I have completed basic maint since purchasing( including the timing belt only because I could not validate last completion). Most people that have beenin the car assume it is much newer. Great cars that should bring us many years of enjoyment.

Hi all,

New guy here, gave my '94 BMW 525i to my 16 year old, and bought my boss's 1998 GS 400 about 6 months ago.

She has 259,565 Miles on her. He bought it brand new, and now I have it.

Looks good, but has a little road rash up front. Have to be up close though.

I like that it's faster than a 540i. This baby has awesome power, I may not go back to BMW's. Had 3 before. 525, 325, and 525 again.

I have a small problem with clicking and starting, but I'll search out the forums for that one, get the codes read, print out some threads, and send it off to my brother in law to be fixed.

None of these high-mileage Lexii are even scratching the surface of what Irv Gordon has accomplished with his 1966 Volvo P1800 - over 2.6 MILLION miles, and still going strong.

300,000 miles in his world is just breaking it in.
