E-rock Posted August 1, 2005 Share Posted August 1, 2005 Was looking at BMW 540i and similar cars. But they fall the hell apart and I'm not interested in all that repair. Also I find the GS400 more attractive looking. So my question is, I know the GS400 has fast stats, but is it any fun to drive? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance ← What do you mean by fun? Are you talking about power or handling? You'll like the V8 power. If you are looking for BMW handling, then the GS will not be competive stock. Start building up the suspension with sways and braces and you will have a :D on your face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

micnn Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 I drove a 2002 GS300. The car has a live of its own... elegant and yet playful. Wish it were 430, but happy the way it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOPERT Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 Hi, I love my GS 400. It is a blast to drive, the V-8 is awesome! My husband has a turbo charged ford lighting and it is a close match up. Especially off the line. I am looking to get rid of mine because of family considerations. Interested in seeing pics? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
