Where are you in Europe ?
I'm in greece. I own a 2007 Lexus Gs 450h sport luxury plus
Acc and pcs. I've been wanting this car ever since I was living in Miami and I got the opportunity to buy it here in greece where I live for now.
Basically the fully loaded models are the ones that have these two features. You can recognize them from the exterior from the rear spoiler that they have on top of the trunk.
I have switched the exhausts with some handmade ones from a mechanic here. Much better sound and faster too. I threw some 20" too with 245/30/20 front and 275/30/20.
The car is a beast. Whenever I see a BMW m3 e46 I just play with then and they cannot grasp that they re not faster than my car. It's just funny. This gs is faster than an M3 period. And we are talking about a major weight difference between these two cars. Lexus is 1985kg and m3 is 1549kg. And still is faster. Not to mention some funny crappy looking Subaru sti's with 1,500 hp that they are ready to explode.
The only car that I would trade my Lexus with is the old M5 with the V10. That's the car that I would give respect to. But I would buy this car only if I ever own a f... Gas Station lol
Anyhow back toy Lexus
I want to lower it a little bit now but not sure which one to go. I don't want to mess with the AVS so i might just go with lower springs. I'm thinking of the tanabe NF 210 or the even lower ones tanabe df 210
The only problem is that in their site they do not list the gs 450h while they say that it would fit with all the other 3 rd generation GS. why ?
We'll the answer is just very simple. The batteries!!' They weight approx 250kg !!! That's at least 2 extra persons at the rear seats. But let's not forget that's what makes the difference that offers you this amazing gas mileage and this crazy performance.
Therefore I don't blame any of these companies that they don't even bother manufacture springs for this specific car.
Let me know what your opinion is on this. Thanks
Question. How can I post videos and pictures of my car in this ?
