Default Took delivery of my GS300 AWD today!

What can I say... I love it!











The only bad thing is that I can't transfer my phonebook over using the E815 even after hacking it.

Wheels/tires/tint to come soon.

Car looks good. It would look much better if you get rid of those wheel gap. Is it because it's a 4WD? Is the wheel gap on the regular 2WD look like this?

Congrat!!!

Thanks, guys. The wheel gap on the AWD is slightly larger, I think about .25 inches. Although I agree with you that it would look much better dropped, I'm probably not going to mess around with the suspension.

Nice color. That blue sure is beautiful. Cant wait to see it with some rims. Not a big fan of the stock 17inchers.

Off topic: I also like that front door. Real classy. Nice design.
