Talking Finally switched from my RX300 to an '02 GS300 SportDesign

Hi all --

Originally had a 50 mile work commute so I had an RX300AWD here in NJ.

Moving to LA shortly, so I just traded out for an '02 GS300 SportDesign CPO in Graphite Grey Pearl with Nav/ML. Couldn't be happier with the change!

Just picked up the car 3 days ago.

Looking forward to making some modifications when I get to LA.

Great board and information for newbies like me here!
Thanks!

You'll enjoy the trip cross country. Unless you're a skier that was a good move to go to the GS in CA. Congrats on the purchase.

Tell me, why did you choose a LExus to upgrade to, rather than any other vehicle out there?

The color is REALLY nice in the sunlight... its got like a glitter to it. I get the most comments when its clean and the sun is shining on it...
