Default New Owner of a 06 GS430

Hi everyone! I am a proud owner of a 2006 GS430. I just bought it yesterday and LOVE it. I traded in my 2002 BMW 540i 6 Speed and I am really glad I did. This thing rides 100x better..

I have not taken any photos yet but here are some photos from the dealer.

You have to look at the numbers, the amount of 5 series BMW sells in a year compare to the GS's sales numbers and you will realized why the GS forum is dead compare to the BMW's. Also, most Lexus owners are older in age and not as much as an enthusiast as the BMW owners.
