I've got a few of the same issues...
For the people talking about vibrations at 65mph, isn't that just an wheel balancing issue, or is related to something else?
I've also got some small stearing wheel shaking when I brake, thats due to warped brake rotors right?
Who else has this, and who has fixed it?

hey shiznittle man i have had this problem due to 3 different things and have fixed it for not to much $$$ each time... when braking you need new rotors, i was told to get the oem brembo vented ones for like 105/ pair for front and i recommend these still to anyone having the rotor issue... you will also need new pads and was told you get what you pay for when it comes to pads so i got a set of 100$ ones which i thought was a little pricey but they are beautiful so far (like 4 months now). you also need to get a front alignment and rear alignment + all 4 wheels balanced and possibly rotated depending on your setup, and if you are using aftermarket rims get hub rings as well... i put money that this fixes your problem...

WHAT I DISLIKE MOST ABOUT MY CAR (CANADIAN VEHICLE) .....
Is the headlight washer assembly on the front bumper.
Not to mention it never gets used and causes a huge mess of wiper fluid all over the front end of the vehicle.

car isn't perfect to me but is defintely a %110 car out of a %100 for me......
you guys have to understand some of the things you guys hate were optional due to regional location.
for example, i believe the tte is stock for GSs in europe or some.
Canadian GSs don't have the coin holder underneath the side mirror switch, it is replaced by a swicth for the headlight washers which the U.S models don't have.
what i find ugly is the dull green color of the radio , tep. display and buttons. they should have matched it with the white guage cluster.
but then again, i think the guage cluster could have been better with a more floiurscent kind as in the LS models.

i like the gauge cluster display color especially at night, but olddog is correct about that ugly dull green radio display color... i am an IT guy and just always think of those old computer monitors from like the 80's that had that same green color for their display...
yeah i'm glad this car doesn't have that headlight washer fluid option stuff to worry about, cuz i had to get mine fixed on my gloria in japan numerous times, and it can get quite costly i tell ya...
that dude who said the spoiler was ugly and same as all the other toyotas has gotten me thinking about that now. i think he/ she is correct...
