Nope. Brought it from a friend's garage. It was sitting at the front parking lot and my dad's friend said "That's a good car to buy" my dad said alright, he went to the mechanic and said "How much is that?" and the mechanic said 500 dollars; My dad thought that he was joking but he was dead serious, the next day he went and got $500 and got it licensed etc. and drove it home.

Nope, runs like a dream. The only reason why it's so cheap is because it has high km's on it. When my dad brought it, it had 250,XXX km's on it.

It's not a GLS, there's no chrome rims, or sunroof. It's a GL3. I'm planning to do a coolant flush in the near future. Already changed the air filter, oil, oil filter, topped up the A/C. All I need to do now is the LIMG (it's leaking a little bit) and change the TPS. I already fixed the wheel bearings. I need to do a tune-up badly because it's burning more gas than usual.

But I thought that all GLS's had chrome rims, sunroof, leather interior, spoiler, and 200 watt speakers?

I'm saying that only the GLS came with chrome rims. And mine didn't because Ttop said that all GLS came with the 3400, but he was wrong.
