Coils will definitely be on the top of my list if anything. Speaking of lowering springs, do you know if lowering springs will effect the S+ mode in any way? ie. camber, alignment, shocks... I don't want to mess up anything that is already set up by Lexus.

That's what I have been wondering too, I guess we going to have wait for some one to try it out first before we jump on it. I also love the trd front lip, that and some coils and some killer rims that thing going to look Hella nice.

I am also new to this forum, I bought a Nebula/cabernet combination 2 weeks ago. Nice looking as well. A little difficult to obtain. I live in CT and had to buy it in New Jersey. I absolutely love the car so far, I traded in an 07 ES350. Very diferent car feel drive etc.

This is my very first Lexus so I don't have much to compare to but I did have a chance to drive the ES as a loaner for a couple of days. Completely different feel. GS seems much more planted, solid, and more precise. I also notice that I have to give the GS just a little more gas around corners and turns maybe because it is rear wheel drive. That's the other thing, I've never owned a RWD. My past cars have been Quattro (AWD) and FWD. Anyways, I'm just loving the whole experience and really happy with the way it is driving and performing. Congrats on your Nebula BTW and hope you are enjoying it as much as I am

Default Thanks

Tu I appreciate your comment. I did in fact purchase an AWD model. I can't handle RWD in the Northeast. I really don't have an issue with acceleration around corners etc. How are you getting by with the Nav system and all the rest of the toys associated with it, i.e. I-Phone apps, etc. I'm a 20 + year "IT guy" and haven't mastered it yet, (although I've been travelling quite a bit and don't have 2 full weeks of driving). As this model get more and more popular I'm sure there will be threads dedicated to the apps and features that come with the car.

I have an appointment to meet with the tech specialist tonight to go over the fine details of everything that is tech related with this car. I've figured out a lot of the basics but still find myself stumbling with basic functions and navigations like switching radio or satelite stations, erasing destination on the maps, etc., etc.. My dealership has set up a corner in their dealership with desks and techs just dedicated to the tech stuff last week.
