I find it hilarious that people want state the GS is the sofest of the bunch but compared to it's Japanese competiton, the aftermarket is just obsessed with this car and the new IS.
Lexus is really something. It shows how strong the GS is when it is being used by company after company at all these shows and its amazing so many of our members have modded the cars in less than a year.

That is a true testament that this car has hit its traditional market as well as continuing to appeal to those that want to modify their car.

That Blitz GS is awesome, their S/C on the IS makes 408hp. I wonder what the numbers for this car are? I figure around the same area.

Correct. The kits are very expensive with gains not reflecting the price to those interested in modding. You can go custom for that amount.

Do you mean a supercharged car with an automatic transmission is weird?

Mercedes makes a few: CLS55, SL55, SL65... SLR...

A twin S/C? That's GOT to list for $15K or better. Only about $150 per horsepower
