Jeff Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 I own an LS but have been looking into a GS and was wondering what the 0-60mph time is in a GS400 ? I looked it up on edmunds.com and it said under 6 second. I've owned an under 6 second car a few months ago (Porsche 951) and the GS400 I drove did'nt seem even close to the acceleration of the Porsche. Has anyone ever timed a GS400 and what was your results please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

melhadri Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 The GS may carry more weight but its a powerful car. Try test driving a newer model 01-05 GS430...very impressive car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

new big400 Posted July 21, 2005 Share Posted July 21, 2005 Car and driver and motortrend both rate a 430 1-2 tenths slower in the 1/4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
