Default 2005 GS Info

Seems on the Lexus website;
GS 430s can only be had with NAV/ML and chrome 17s
GS 300s can be had with 2 packages, the only difference is with or without HIDs.

I wonder if this is to get folks used to less choices and higher prices?

This is indeed funny.

My Lexus dealer in NYC told me that there would be NO 2005 GS. It would be the new 2006 GS.

It's a sick reason really, to get YOU to buy one.

Certainly one of my favorites

I just got my '05 GS430 and I have the 17" alloy wheels, so chrome only is certainly not true.

As far as the ML/Nav, it seems to me that this is a "standard option." What I mean is that it's an option, but you don't seem to have any choice, which was fine by me. From what I gathered, only a very, very small percentage of the 430s ship here without it.

Hope this helps.
