It seems to me Lexus sold more GS300 over 400/430 based on what I see on the road, review from this board.
Anyone know the sale % betwen the I6 and V8?
Also, wonder how many current GS300 owners thinking they should have gotten the V8 (and why?)

wish Id gotten the GS400, my 300 leaks oil like a siv (SP?) Im looking at getting the T belt, Water pump, cam seals, front crank seal,valve cover gaskets, plugs, wires changed. I hope it is leaking from there(cam seals or fr crank) and running down to the rear where the motor meets the tranny. Thats where it drips from, but I can look inside at the Tbelt and it is oily and my water pump has standing oil on it. WTH!! I hope I dont have to pump a bunch of money into this to find out its leaking from the rear seal,too! Ive called Toyota about the repairs, they hav\vent got back with me for a quote(its been a week, Ive called them 3 times?????). How much should these reapirs minus the rear seal cost? Kinda wonderin.

I love my car I really do...
but bottom line is if you get the 300 go turbo or go home
unless u turbo it u will always think i coulda had more power, i coulda been faster
but its not like i had a choice in the matter

I didn't do much research before buying my car (only owned mustangs) and didn't even realize that there was a V8 option (gs400). If I could go back, I would look for a 400.
