Nice man thats the same colour combo i have but mines awd i like how the rwd sits, mine sits a bit high. Theres only two white fsport in canada mines in Toronto and the other is in vancouver i got lucky they found 1 at another dealer but, they didnt want to give it to my dealer because they wanted to sell it for them self, but they needed a car at my dealer so they said if they wanted the gs they have to trade the
car so that cut my wait time to just only a few days instead of waiting a few month. I was very happy about that as i see alot of people waiting a very long time to recieve theres

Looks like a great choice! Be sure to post your thoughts on everything after you have had it for awhile.

I don't support putting money down on a lease but I needed to get the payment down so the Boss wouldn't yell at me.
Looks like a service bay to me!

Working from home has it's advantages and disadvantages. I rarely schedule appointments on Mondays so HAD to go run an errand.





Also did a little more organizing in the garage

Did you get Bridgestone Potenza RE 050A for your tires?

I test drove a number of vehicles before ending up at the GS:
-2012 Mercedes C250, E350
-2012 (new Model) BMW 328i
-2012 Volvo S60 R-Design
-2012 Infiniti M37 & G37
-2012 Audu A3, A4,S4,A6

Weather kind of sucks today but i will post up some pictures later today.
Same here....for the past 8 years I've only driven SUVs and surprisingly, don't miss the ride height like I thought I would. On another note, I would like to hear your thoughts on why you picked the 4G over the others you mentioned above. I too considered the E350 and although loved the car, hated the front grill and flat dash board.

that there is a big reason. It's also not that fun to drive.

I liked the C250 much more but for a little more the GS350 was better all around.

Man, that is soooo sweet! I went to the dealer a couple days ago to check out the GS, and this is by far my favorite color!
