Charon Posted February 3, 2008 Posted February 3, 2008 My 99 GS 400 has 135k trouble free miles on it. I was awaiting more HP in the newer models GS. Our second car is a MB E55 Amg and the contrast between them couldn't be further apart. Both are well made and have plenty of power, I just wish Lexus would step up with more power and better handling.
scottie Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 I have an 01 GS430 I bought used and I'd love to have a brand new GS430. If I had the cash I'd buy one without thinking twice. It's the best car I've ever own. I only have 80k miles on it and my wife has practically taken it from me :)
modifyit15 Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 :D I wouldnt buy another one, Cause mines going to last a life time Lol. I love my 2k GS300 160K miles change the timing belt and one Ball joint thats all Rides fine on the stock tires for me, no wheel shimmy unless the tires have been balanced wrong. if you have creaking in the dash, install new felt stoppers in the glove box, they fall off over time. whats wrong with a low idle as long as its running good low.
Since'79 Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 I've had mines for a couple months . so far I love it. My only issue is the mileage
scottelble Posted February 23, 2008 Posted February 23, 2008 Just got my second GS today! Spring is around the corner so i wanted to switch back from my LS4 to something sporty i knew i'd be satified with;) So my answer is yes.

xhybrdx Posted February 23, 2008 Posted February 23, 2008 Have driven a low milage GS350 AWD loaner while my GS450 was in for repairs (squeaks). Mine has a much better ride but I agree with the person who is disappointed by the noise. Granted it is not my LS but still too much noise for a Lexus. That having been said, I'd purchase another GS450; they are just too powerful and fun to drive.
Essam Posted May 5, 2008 Posted May 5, 2008 Non. Never. I have 2003 GS300 with 99 K miles. Rear engine seal leaked oil. Two Oxygen sensors failed. Driver Auto Door lock failed. A/C/ now is not working.
master640 Posted May 8, 2008 Posted May 8, 2008 When I had to move to from the Supra to another auto, the GS was the most logical choice, since it had the 2JZ Non-Turbo engine. (Trick the wife, it's a under cover supra) I had my GS300 and have close to 200K on it and still going strong. I am looking to get the GS430 as an upgrade.
Gunnut Posted May 11, 2008 Posted May 11, 2008 I don't think I'll buy another GS. I'm going to go back to the LS line. While the GS is high in luxury, it has nothing on the LS line. I guess I'm getting old. JimA
pdpd Posted August 15, 2008 Posted August 15, 2008 Just curious to see how satisfied our forum is... on my second one. Fantastic car. went from Jag to GS300 for a change. Had a great experience, but went back to Jag b/c there wasn't much body difference when it came time to trade up the GS. Only took a year to remember why I left Jag. Gs isn't as flashy, but the car just works, all the time.
PHML Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 Yes....another 2GS if the price was right....probably a GS430.
geofee Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 another GS? of course! even tho there are some problems with the car, but I still love GS for what it has given me a very comfort ride with satisfied speed and performance PS: if i can get a JDM Vertex, HELL YEA another GS! B)
LovetoPartyLFD92 Posted August 29, 2008 Posted August 29, 2008 I would also buy another GS, I love them. However, I test drove a new Toyota Avalon Limited recently, and for the money, that is a great car! But, I think our next Lexus will be for the wife. And I think the IS250 AWD will be perfect for her. I haven't heard alot about the 250, but it's a Lexus. It's just such a cute car.
SHAWNGS300 Posted August 29, 2008 Posted August 29, 2008 Just curious to see how satisfied our forum is... HELL NO!!!!
JoelGs Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 Just curious to see how satisfied our forum is... VERY SATISFIED WITH MY GS..I WOULD DEFINITELY GET ANOTHER ONE....
lonnielew Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Let's just say if I were the majority stock holder or CEO of any of the BIG 3 automakers.....My GS would be parked out front at our corporate office. I'd own a fleet if money was no object
