New Car

Oh you will. You don't have it yet to realize how unbelievably slow a GS300 actually is despite being 220hp. It's ok on the freeway but just about everything else on the road leaves the 300 in the dust driving around town and from a dead stop. If you have no desire to do an engine swap or na-t then I would highly recommend getting a 400/430 instead..
Here's mine almost 3 years ago when I first got it and it is just lowered w/ stock wheels. After I bought it I parked in the garage and had no intention on driving this thing until it was lowered, it didn't move an inch until I put the coilovers on.
Even with stock wheels the height makes it a whole different vehicle, I was constantly getting compliments on the car totally stock but slammed.

i would lower it first..i did it in this order:
1.lowered it
2.temp wheels ( by temp i mean..a decent used set u can pick up for 800-1500 bucks)
3.window visors
4.LED tail lights
5.removed stock wing
6.new fitted wheels (after researching what u really want)
i think those were the main things i took care of first..and little things along the way like..HID kits for headlights n fogs and little LED accents here n there..debadging n stuff like that..good luck and happy modding!

Megan LP's, here is the original thread back when I first picked up this car before I did the engine build.
