Guys,
I am in the market for a GS300. How much should I be paying for a 2006 GS300 if the MSRP is $50000? I understand that the GS350 is coming out soon but I can't wait the 1-3 months for it. Please help! Thanks!

The only reason people might buy the 430 instead of the 350 is that the v8 is smoother than the v6. When a v6 and a v8 make the same amount of power, the v8 will usually be smoother. Juss my .02.

When will we see a list of features for the 350/460. I wanted to get a LS460L but umm yeah thats just a tad out of my price range so I was going to get a 06GS430 at the end of the year but now with the GS350 coming out maybe I can save a little more cash. The new LS 460 is going to come standard with XM Nav Traffic. For one I wouldnt want XM Nav traffic I would want SIRIUS Nav Traffic, I guess my question is, is the 07 model year GS going to incorporate Nav Traffic into their systems? This is a huge selling point to me and might make me wait another model year although its killing me to wait.
Thanks
Thanks
