Yeah, I guess mass wasn't the right word, the E93 was just a smaller and tighter package than the GS, felt more connected to the road to me. I'm still getting used to the GS's size, but the ride is different. I felt like I could throw the BMW around much easier. The wider power band also helped fling the car around.

No complaints though, the GS handles well, I just need to get used to it's size and ride height. I love the more compliant ride though, even in S+. I'm wondering how much harsher it will become with Tanabe springs and 20's.

Hi ClubLexus community!

This is my first post ever, after reading up on all of your helpful tips, and creeping over your awesome mods....and I finally purchased a 2013 GS350. It was only manufactured roughly 6 months ago - so it isn't that old of a 2013. Here are the specs of the vehicle:

1. GS Premium
2. Starfire Pearl/Black Interior
3. Nav / No ML; with blindspot, remote start, parking sensors, 18" Superchrome etc.
4. AWD
5. no DRS
6. Possibly a glossy vinyl roof, definitely window tints, and maybe some rims
7. I was considering a BMW X5, or an Audi A7; I came over from a G37X sedan

I think I bargained hard for my car; not sure what you folks think...but the sticker price was 57k with the options I have, and I signed for $45,500. Took some bargaining and shopping around. I look forward to speaking with you fellow car enthusiasts. Cheers!

PS - I need a rear trunk lip/spoiler, not sure where to start looking for something OEM.

Cool

Hello everyone,

Traded in my 2003 ES300 for a 2013 GS350 this weekend.

I've been on these forums for several months, mostly resarching maintenance issues on my ES300. Loved the car, but at 188,000 miles, it was time to decide to put more $$ into it (timing belt, etc), or use the money towards a newer car. I 'm glad I made the switch!


1. 2013 GS350 Premium
2. Liquid PLatinum / Black
3. No ML
4. AWD
5. No DRS
6. Window tint
7. Considered MB E-Class, BMW 5-Series. Replaced a 2003 ES300
