Default Help me choose the right car

I had GS300 but my car will be belong to my brother soon. I have a chance to get another one.I confusing to choose . I dont know, should i go for GS300 or 400. Which engine is good for this body stype. And what about the MPG? My friend told me about GS400, the font tires will not last long. It's need to be replace after 10k miles - 15k miles. Anyone got experiance about this, please help me.
Thanks in advance

GS400 FTW(for the win) I have never heard of the front wheels nedding replacing after 10k miles.

Maybe the rears if you constantly burn rubber

If you are planning to boost, go with a GS300.

If not then a GS400.
