Mike, Im tossing the idea around as well. Took my car in this week and was given a 09 GS350 fully loaded to drive for 2 days instead of the usual RX or ES and all i can say is that my car feels like a dinosaur now! I havent had a car payment in 4 years and Im glad I dont sometimes when things get tight, but man the GS got 221k on it now and things are starting to wear out from old age. I was impressed by the power of the 350 wasnt really expecting it. Now I have got the fever and not sure if I should pull the trigger in this market!!! Congrats on the car....best color combo ever!!!! What plans you got for it besides F-Sport upgrades!!??

You know I can't pre-mod and tell Thanks and its a very logical upgrade for 2GS owners and the difference in tech is pretty staggering. Still taking me time to get used to some things.

Yeah, us moderators got to mod, its in the name

Almost on week 2 with her and still getting 26 MPG in about a 40/60 city/Hwy mix. My 2GS is black also so its funny seeing people look at the car that have seen it and then see the 3GS and comment "wait, thats a new car"?

I did see a white 09 GS 350 today and I miss PDW
