nc211 Posted April 6, 2005 Share Posted April 6, 2005 Oh no kidding? Hmmm, I did not know that, interesting. Learn something new every day. I drove my friends 99 and it didn't seem as bad as the new ones, but maybe it's the weight of the vehicle? Either way, get the LS man, you'll be so much happier. Or even the GS is an excellent choice too! I was on the fence between the two when I got my LS. I was looking at a 98 GS300, and it was sweeeeeeet! But, the price difference between the two, and the LS was sold from a lexus dealership with history, GS was on a country boy used car lot. LS had 84k miles, GS had 98k. LS was $14k w/ 90k service included. GS was $18k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexusfreak Posted April 6, 2005 Share Posted April 6, 2005 Hahaah, me neither! No more brand new cars for me. I'd rather give the money to a three legged hooker to kick me in the boys. It's LS400's for me for a very very long time. Spent so much time reading and learning about this car, I feel like I'm trained for them. I hear a squeek, I know what it is, where it is, how much it costs and how long it will take me to do it. These cars are just perfect, perfect perfect. ← Because of the climate I live in (fairly bad winters from December to March), I perfer FWD over RWD......however, if they ever make the LS an AWD.....I just might have to give that car a closer look.......of course one can always hope the same can be said about the next gen ES.......I doubt the Avalon will ever have AWD.

SW03ES Posted April 6, 2005 Share Posted April 6, 2005 nc211- It depends on the individual car, if you learn to drive the car smoothly with the electronic throttle the hesitation won't annoy you anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lack of AWD is a big reason some of my friends up north have bought A8s and S500s recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW03ES Posted April 6, 2005 Share Posted April 6, 2005 The GS300 comes AWD now. Eventually they'll all have an AWD option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
