Default Looking at 2010 GS 6MT Jetstream Blue

Looking at dealer online pictures. Looks really nice. From pictures: no NAV, no heated seats, no stripes, painted top only. Can't tell if it has NPP exhaust (any way to tell from pictures). I'm guessing "base" GS (1LE?). Only 16k miles. Has new looking Nankang tires (never heard of them).

Any issues for this year GS?

Dealer asking $36k which seems high for lowest option package but low miles.

1LT? Seems a little high, but put the link on here and let us have a look...

Yep... seems a bit high for the lack of options... must be the miles. I purchased my 2010 GS 3LT 2 months ago for $33k with 27k miles and the transparent roof.

If you enter the vin into google you can get some details on the version of your car (mine pops up as 3LT lickity split). Don't forget to ask for the carfax report.

If you have a picture of the rear, you can see the actuators. This isn't my car, but shows what they look like. There will also be "NPP" listed on the RPO codes in the glove box.

Default Too high

That seems very high for a 1lt. I just spent the last six months looking for a GS, I think that should be priced around 30k with those options

I paid $37K for a 12 GS 3LT Heritage with NPP exhaust and 14K miles. I bought it at a dealer in the Denver area last December. Buying in the winter probably helped with the cost, good luck.

Default Look at steering wheel

1lt cars don't have steering wheel Bluetooth controls or radio controls.

That's very low miles and a fabulous color. If you like that one work them down a little more and get it. You won't regret it. I ordered my C6 to keep all of the junk (nav, onstar, etc) off of it and have loved this car for over 12 years now.

If its the one in Tracy it is a beauty. It is a 1LT and looks to have NPP exhaust.
My opinion...it is still a little high but if it is exactly what you want and you are going to hang onto it for a long time...go for it.

Hope this works. If not try CarGurus. Just noticed listed as a GS 2LT. Pictures of exhaust do not show NPP actuattors but may be hiding under cover.

Yes its the one in Tracy. Noticed its listed as GS 2LT. Can't see NPP in pictures and not listed in features/options. Wheels don't look like the GS wheels I've seen on this forum. Possibly Z06 wheels?

looks like it has Z06 wheels, some additional accessories under the hood, and appears to have wrapped or painted halo and top, as well as accessorized taillights, full width spoiler, RaceMesh front grill, and tinted sidemarkers........... just from what I observed........

great color combination, and below is current NADA (National Auto Dealers Association) pricing on a 2010 GS 2LT with 17,000 miles.....

let us know when you are bringing it home......

They are Z06 wheels. The looks to have NPP exhaust due to the two inner pipes being dark.

Yes, it appears to be a 2LT (power passenger seat). It has a lot of tasteful mods as rkj427 stated.

Nice lookin gs, quite a few dress up extras, looks like an intake, but no headers, I'd ask if there has been other mods to the engine. Id want to know that up front. At a minimum it may have a tune. The wheels are a plus and the tires look fresh. Mods don't necessarily add 1 for 1 value but they do have some value.

Cause to look real close, just from the images, the splitter has suffered and looks rough each side. The stereo bezel and buttons are damaged, the cd eject button and the last preset almost look like they are burned or melted. The scan button is the same. Id pull that dash pad mat thing off and examine the interior closely. The weatherstripping on the passenger A pillar looks deformed. How does it smell?

Drive it, feel it, stereo off, if you get any hint of anything wrong it probably is. get it up in the air and closely look at the underside,,,!, or get help.

If it all checks out (That's the important part), the price is just OK, not great but not ridiculous, typical retail. If its what you are looking for and you can work em down a bit it would be a fair deal.

Ok that looks like a 1lt. No heated seates. And no npp. It has a plate on the muffler tips and I don't think you could get that plate on with the actuators.
No intake. That's a cover on the intake I think.
Radio can be replaced if the car is nice.
Thanks price is high. I paid 31k for mine a Year and a half ago.
I think it's a 30k car all day long.

Derek doesn't have anything for ya ? I seen a few nice cars over there.
At least have Richie run the vin for ya. He can get all info.

Can't be a 1lt because it has two tone perforated seats that were not offered on 1lt. It looks very nice but the price is a little high but then again it's springtime.

Very nice color and car. If you are serious about it try negotiating a few thousand lower. If the dealer had it on the lot for awhile he may give you a better price. Good luck

The price is high. But,and a big but, JSB is hard to come by. It all depends on how much you want it. If its for you get it. If its not everything you want move on. There will be tons of other cars for you.
