comparing 430 and 300 engines...
Is there any reason you would want the 3.0l engine over the 4.3l.
It sounds like a HUGE difference in engine size but does that really show?
The 300 also has the E-shift which is way cool.
What else...any opinion and all facts are welcome!
Thanks

Have to disagree with this one a bit. I have a 2k1 GS430 and my wife has a 2k3 GS3 and they are very, very close. If anything, I would say the GS3 idles smoother and quieter than the GS4. I think the V8 is a great engine but I have owned that straight six in a Supra and I hope the V8 equals it for longevity, it really is a quality piece, much, much better than bimmer straight sixes in my opinion, after having owned both.

The GS4xx has more hp and is probably the choice if you need speed and cannot/will not mod the engine. Given that the GS400 from 99 on will probably have hids and 17 inch rims the difference, used, will be closer then 10k. New, that's another story.
