Default Moved downstairs to you guys Lol

Hey guys, I sold my baby Panda last week and bought a GS350. I know its nothing like my F but I wanted luxury for sometime unitl I get a new gen F, GT-R or GT3rs hopefully next summer. I will really miss you guys and all the knowledge and kindness you guys showed.

I bought a black on black GS350 wil Nav/ML, I thought I was going to keep it stock but looks like thats not happening.

Great meeting some of you F owners and hope to always be in the Lexus game. Enjoy your F because I sure enjoyed every second of my F.

I know man but its ok will come to bigger and stronger soon. It was a local member who bought it, they are pretty cool and am sure they will take good care of it.

Don't be a stranger. You have a wealth of knowledge from your IS-F build. Glad to have met you in Baltimore.

Sad to see your panda build go. But as long as it's in good hands, that's all that matters. You had some of the best pics with the WALD kit. Hopefully the new owner will appreciate it as well. What do you like most about your new GS?

The GS460 is not much faster than the GS350 to be honest. All you're paying is extra money for a car with 2 more cylinders, 39 more hp and your mpg's are less than the 350. GS460's are also pretty hard to find since most people by the 350.

My wife has a 2011 GS350. They are really nice cars and very comfortable on long drives.

0-60, 5.4 vs. 5.7

1/4 mile, 13.9 vs. 14.3

This is comparing 460 RWD to 350 RWD.
