Ah, great. No worries. In a while, you'll all wonder where all the "Limited Edition" GS300's are. lol

New to the forum and I have to say I love reading every post. I just checked the Lexus website and both GS350 rwd and awd is up on build your own.. Now my dilema after my rx330 is up is either to get a gs or es.. I love the power and look of the gs however I really like the panaroma roof...

I think the real monster here is the GS350 AWD. Are you kidding me? 303HP via four wheels? To me, this is the most desirable Lexus in quite a while for bad weather capability AND performance.
According to the brochures on the website, the weight difference is about 180lbs, which is probably worth about 0.2sec, and the final drive on the GS is slightly taller which probably accounts for the other 0.2sec. So 5.7 for the GS vs 5.3 for the IS seems to make sense.
