I have been itchin to get into the new cars. As you can see i'm in alittle situation, I'm not sure what i want $58 for a fully loaded GS430 is steep but lexus is a perstiguos product. Infinity M45 is just hot rite now, and at $60 fully loaded sport (including dvd in the back for the kidies) has more options then GS430. What do you guys think i should do, cause this is only a temp thing till i hope GS460 or 08 skyline GTR or supra < dreamin there.

The cars themselves are pretty evenly matches, however, Infiniti loses value like crazy, look at Q45's, you can pick these babies used for next to nothing. Lexus holds value much better, so if you are going to be selling it soon, get the GS430 or better yet GS300.

It won a KBB award for the best resale (in its class and as one of a top ten).

Like Gene said if you compare Apples to Apples the GS is a better car. The one thing I didn't like with the M was the fit and finish of the car I test drove vs the GS. Bar none the GS was better put together. Just my 2 cents.
