i was offered GS3 with below inovoice when i was shopping for my IS350. the price difference is actually only about 3 or 4K out the door, i believe. I would have picked GS3 if it came with new 3.5 V6 but the current GS3 was kinda slow, IMHO.

I personally like the GS a lot more in terms of interior and exterior styling.............Just spend some time inside both cars and a blind person would be able to tell that the GS is the higher quality vehicle therefore it costs more. Performance wise, the IS is def the winner.


yup... a fully loaded 330 is actually more expensive than a stripped down 525. I would personally get the GS or the 5. I'm in my mid 20's.... maybe if i was 16-23, I would get an IS. I'm a little too conservative though... I already bought and drove my LS430 ever since I was 24.
