I just got my GS4, and plan to start more seriously modding next spring. I haven't been to a CL meet (which I assume this would be?) but would like to. By early summer next year I should have a few things done. I'm up for it!

im in, all depending on the date, i have some mods, intake, lowered, tint and stereo/video, still looking for the right wheels and with this bein MN its hard to throw down 3k on wheels I cant rock all year. Gettin married, so the funds for the ride are kinda tight know but i always find a way to feed the addiction. hope to see some GS domination this summer.

I'm happy to see all the GS's coming out of the woodwork. It doesn't matter if you have a couple of mods or a show car lets show our support and hold down the MN Lexus front. Somebody has to show people that IS's aren't the only cars we mod :-P

Looking good! Once the snow dries we'll get together with the IS guys and see if we can get a BIG turn out. The first CL meet was 3 dudes, the second one was 5 guys and 2 were my GS300 and my buddys ES300. Seeing 30+ IS's in that other thread was impressive. I know if we put a little planning into this we can pull off something really special.

I thought I would able to get ISF but turn out it's not the car work well for MN. So we decide to get GS instead. Already put down the deposit for gs350 and wait for the car to be shipped in from other dealer. So here I am, another GS in MN area.

Nice thread. I know my wife will think I have truly gone off the deep end if I say I'm going to meet a bunch of strangers just because we all drive the same car. So I'm probably in for that. It'll be nice to talk about the car instead of just typing about it.

I just bought snow tires for this animal and will soon install 4 shocks, outer tie rods, upper control arms, toss the old rubber for the snows, then get her balanced and aligned.

Man, I hope the VSC and Snow option paired with some Blizzak WS-50s will work out OK for the upcoming winter. Don't want to spend the next 4 months driving our minivan around! The minivan is supposed to be at home to haul all these guys around!
