Default new 07 gs350 or certified 06 gs430

Which one would you get ? new 07 350 with navi package, or a loaded 06 gs430, certified with 19000 miles? pretty much same price.....if anything the 430 is about $1000 cheaper, and lower interest rate....

Thanks for your input

New car for nearly the same price with same performance and better fuel mileage. It looks like a no brainer to me but then again I have a GS350.

What other options does that car come with? I think you will be happy with the 350.

I bought a GS300 06, 18000 miles, RWD, every option with 18" rims. Navi, ML, Parking Sonar, Rear Camera, Ventilated seats etc etc. $36,000.

There are alot of good deals out there. I would shop more if you have the time

If you are getting navigation, the GS350 has the latest generation with better graphic.

Other then the Nav, I wouldn't give up my 06 430 for an 07 350. The v8 is so much more smooth and refined then the v6 could ever be. But If I had nothing to compare it to the 350 would be great.

id get it brand new. That whole "certified" thing is bull****. I work for a car dealership. But the 430 definitly will have a smoother drive. And barely has any miles on it.

how much for either before tax??

warranty is nice when certified, but make them include it with 350 if that is your route
