Here, here!
Like I said 5 months ago, I may add a car but want to keep these. Eventually I'll add more mods. The older the get the more mods they will need to keep the freshness.
I'm thinking coils, exhaust, interior change, maybe a wrap color change and definitely wheels. Possibly a turbo for one of them.

Just ordered a 2011 BMW 535xi M-Sport w/ 20" Style 312 Ferric Grey Wheels in Alpine White with Cinnamon Brown Interior. It is currently in Bremerhaven awaiting a ship to the US as we speak ... similar vehicle shown below:
I'm tired of the creaks and rattles of the GS, and wanted something a bit sportier, and more my age (26)! Plus the BMW has so much more in the way of technology than Lexus offers in any of its vehicles!

You guys are crazy, I'm going to squeeze every drop of value out of the car and drive it until the doors are falling off.
Maybe I'm just cheap but I can't stand to watch car depreciation dollars circling the drain and in this segment that drain happens to be pretty large.
As for the GS in Toronto, at least here downtown I see one here and there but really not very often at all. The IS and RX are everywhere though. So, I still feel like I'm driving something a bit different.

To be honest, if I had to start over again, I would get the BMW528 over the GS350. It may not be as powerful as the GS, but it's more fun to drive. They are pretty much the same price btw.

Recently purchased my 07 GS350 RWD (BlueOnyx) she's one sweet car. I don't see myself parting ways with her unless i'm able to get into a M-vehicle. M3/M5. I'm a sucker for anything M.
