The New GS with smoked tail lenses look menacing!
Having seen quite a few around the Dallas/Plano area, I must say that IMO it looks MUCH better in a "dark color" i.e. Black, Charcoal. Those Lowenharts on the passenger side are quite incredible in person! The pics do them no justice. And if you ever get to see them in black w/ polished lip (like some athlete I've seen in a Black SL55 with them!) you will be like:

We may lack the HPs compared to the competition, however exterior styling is to DIE for.
just my humble opinion. I'm so tempted to trade in the 02GS300, but I've always wanted to get a Mini Cooper S. I plan to race it. We'll see how long that will last.

Ok, that color is hot and the tails really add to it's appeal. I'm not liking the wheels though. They both do nothing for me on that car.

I agree with chicago. Color and tails are hot hot hot.
Sorry but the wheels on the left looks good on the 300c and the one on the right is perfect for the SLs
I guess I'm the old boring 5-star spoke guy

Seems like the rims got lots of negative feedback .... Well thankfully those rims i just put on for that show. Test the market.... As i speak, my rims are being built. Work wheels is building me a mesh style rim ft 20x9 and 20x11 rr .

But for those that are into the LDRs or LSRs pm me and i'll hook you up.

Wheels look hot if you ask me. Well maybe its just the car is so hot anything you put on it would look good. Love the dark tail lights, would look hot with my Mercury Metallic GS430.
