Valve Spring Recall- Got a Cool Loaner
Took my car in for the Valve Spring Recall.....
2007 GS350 w/ 30k miles.....
Service writer hooked me up w/ 2010 GS350 w/ 4k miles.......
This 2010 has sport suspension option on it.......
real-time traffic.....on the nav too.....
I guess they didn't offer this....on the 2007.......
Drove the loaner home.....felt rough......My GS...feels waaay better.....
Taking this loaner to Vegas....tommorrow...hehe....

Also got a 2010 GS loaner today. 2 things stuck out to me...the display grpahics on the center console screen is way better on the 2008. The 2010 screen has a different feel that I definitely didnt like.
Secondly, the acceleration on my loaner seemed less punchy. I know there was not an engine change from 2008 and 2010 but it definitely felt less responsive.
Hope they make some major imnprovements moving into 2012/next gen.

When I had the Valve Spring recall done on GSh they gave us an HS. I like the next Gen NAV and camera in the in front bump. The mouse like interface felt natural and didn't take that long to get use to, but I still prefer the touch screen. Another nice update to the NAV was being able to see how many miles to your next exit and what POIs were at that exit.

I got a hyndai sonata from them once, that's when they didn't have loaners and had enterprise rental car pick me up. That's only when you don't have an appointment for a loaner so nothing much to worry about. When you guys make an appointment for repair or service make sure you also make an appointment for a loaner to avoid problems like these. On another note, extended warranty don't cover loaner cars they only cover rentals.

I'm a huge fan of the real time traffic. It'll even offer you re-rout
e options from time to time, and verbally notify you how far ahead and how long the jam is.

in the center console there is a switch between "comfort and sport" mode......for the suspension...
