below.

Lexus Test Driver
The GS450h is rarely seen on the dealer lot and ...
even rarer offerred for test drives because of the small production. I have driven it on a closed course before both with and without the active stabilizer which was the bomb btw. Go to Taste of Lexus to drive it and you will never forget it. The LS460 will be the main course. Just go to a dealer and get your GS350 test in.

Hello Hello Lexus Fans.
Here's my situation:
I currently own a 99 Accord V6 with 200+HP, I think this car has great pick up for an Accord. I'm wondering if this gs350 with 300HP+ is going to "WOW" me. I haven't test drove the new GS350 just waiting for the tasteoflexus to get a real idea on what the car can do.

Just an FYI for anyone who may pop in and ready this. The Chrysler 300C is quicker to 60 and everywhere else than a Lexus GS400, 350 OR 430...

300c
Hey, the 300C is a nice car. I sat in one for a day and I must say, it was very close to Lexus quality... NOT !!!
The lack of enthusiasm for the GS just means the ones that love it and want to buy, won't have to worry about haggling too much for it.

There is no comparison in performance...period!
The Accord and TL just feel like what they are, nice family cars. The BMW was down in power BUT if what you want is sportiness, this is the car for you. The GS has the power, comfort, luxury but it lacks the "feel" of the Bimmer when it comes to steering, brakes and handling. That's the reason the Bimmer is a car that makes you feel you are a better driver.
My wife hated the Bimmer because of the way I drove it. It made me feel like throwing it hard into every turn I encountered, it's that type of a car. The Lexus is not that type of a car. The Lexus feels at it's best driving it relaxed, then you can't help admiring the smoothness and sophistication of design, no matter what road you encounter. The two Honda products, as good as they are, are a notch below. So, if you are looking primarely for a driver's car, go test a 3 series BMW first and then try all the others. If, on the other hand, you want a great overall car, try the GS and I think you will like it.
My opinion and nothing else.
