Question 2006 Gs 300 Awd

undefinedundefinedundefinedundefined


O.K. Everyone knows that the 06 Gs 300 will have all Wheel Drive, but does anyone know how it will perform in really deep snow like 5-7 inches?


And does anyone know the pricing detail?[FONT=Arial][SIZE=5][COLOR=Teal][CENTER][RIGHT]

not standard unless u get the gs300 with the awd. But from what i beleive i think its about $2000-3000 more than base gs300. As far as 5-7 inches i have no idea in my opinion i would say it will perform with ease in 2-5 inches. But 5-7 inches is the clearance on some suvs 5-7 might be pushing it but hey you never know till ya try it hahah

Welcome to Clublexus. No one has driven the car yet. No automotive publication. No one. So no, no one, knows this answer. And in that deep snow, I'd drive a truck or SUV not a car. 5-7 inches? You'll need snow tires more than anything.

5-7? Get a truck! I had a Subaru with AWD and it was fine in snow except clearance becomes a problem in deeper snow, the car just gets bogged in it. The new GS looks very low so I think it will not be so good in deep snow.
