In a bit of a pickle
I'm getting a new car! Ideally, I'd like to keep my GS but i'm not sure yet. It runs great but the milage is getting up there 122,xxx! I know the Lexus is a reliable brand and I have had no real issues with my GS. Let me just say that we wouldn't be having this conversation if it was a 400/430! Basically it comes down to either ditching the GS and getting something else. Or keeping the GS and ditching my fiancee's 2002 Hyundai elantra (beater, but kick **** in the snow...lol) Then my next problem is what to buy as a second car. I really like the X5 4.4i, the E500, the Sc430. Any ideas? Anyone own these cars?

hey wasup maaloxx ummm as for the cars u mentioned i dont own any but from my personal experience...
they need to update the interior of the x5, rides like a qx4 to me
the e-class is pretty darn nice inside, my gf's boss rolls one and when we go out its pretty smooth...
the sc430 love the car thinking about getting one in june or july....

Yeah, I really like the SC430 too. But I can get an E500 for between 28 - 30K. It's got 22k on it but no nav, no HID's and needs minor body work. Otherwise the car is beautiful.

Keep the G, upgrade the hyundia to a better car. Keep the new wife happy and u will b happy. The mileage means nothing on the 300, that inline 6 will damn near outlast anything on the road right now.

i feel your pain. didnt wanna get rid of the GS but needed a new car. i got the E55 and kept the GS. i love the E but have a soft spot in my heart for the GS. i guess if i had to do it over again id probably do the same thing.
my vote goes to getting the E

I found a 2000 Porsche 911 that I think I can get for about 30-31k The porsche to me is as timeless as the 2nd generation GS. Not to mention it's super fast. LOL. Any thoughts on the porsche?
