Furthermore I just don't think the GS is a car that needs to get much bigger since it's meant to be a luxury sport car.

but yes, honestly, looking at real out of the door market price and such between comparable lexus and bmw / mb, i am really surprised how much more expensive bmw / mb are. price out a 550i or e500 with similar options, you see the same thing

both engines aren't fast for bmw...but the handling compensates for it...so it seems like you rdriving fast cuz of the high engine revs and sharp cornering...I used to own a 525 and thought it was alright because of the handling and my friends 530 is okay with an additional hp...however his recently acquired m5 e60 is a lil bit too crazy...too bad he doesn't drive it...

Watch for the 335 coming out in a few more months.. still the same 3.0L I6 motor, but with twin turbos designed to create an ultra flat torque curve, very little lag (great drivability) and over 300 ponies.

You just beat me to it:
HORSEPOWER: 303. EXCUSES: 0. THE NEW LEXUS GS.
Introducing the new, incredibly powerful Lexus GS 350. The numbers speak volumes: 3.5-liter V6, 303 horsepower [1], 274 lb-ft of torque [1]. Numbers that translate into a potent experience at every green light, entrance ramp and passing lane.
Complementing the faster-than-fast new GS 350 is an inspired available Lexus voice-activated DVD Navigation System [3] with Generation 5 software capable of not just recognizing more than 100 voice commands, but realizing the need to offer directions as quickly as the GS is fast.

I was on Old Milton Parkway in Alpharetta, GA two days ago (very close to Lexus headquarters here) and I saw a black car with dealer tags, 18" IS350 rims, and the badges on the back read "GS 350". I really have no idea if it was the real car, but I guess it was worth mentioning

The GS 350 is coming sooner than one thinks...I think you have seen a GS 350, there are some in the US now, about to go on sale. I believe this thread should say 'GS 350 coming this summer.'
