Default Still in love with 3rd gen
I met today few 3rd gen GS's and I am wondering how beautiful design it's having through the years and till today

Memories goes to my previous GS300. Shots were taken in the area of former military airfield.

No question, it is still a beautiful car! Aside from the headlight treatment, it has aged very well. Still looks sleek.

My hands-down favorite part is the gauge cluster in the 3GS. Every time I plop into the driver's seat of my GS460 and lay eyes on the gauges, I gawk at the beauty.

Ha, my favourite is still the Giugiaro designed 1st gen. I may have to pick one up one day and start doing bad things to it...

I have always admired the GS and think that every gen of them are good looking cars. Every time a new gen of it is released I like it more than the last.

Sorry, the 3rd Gen didn't do it for me, style wise. The 4th Gen did.

I think the third gen was pretty cool looking. IMO it was the best egg shape vehicle Lex had. Glad they got over trying to make every vehicle look like an EGG. Haha

I've loved every gen GS. I think the 2nd gen is my favorite. I didn't like the 4th gen at first but it grew on me.

Of course, interior is old now. But I still love this L-finesse design. Here in Europe is 3gen very rare. Probably because it's more "american" look. 4gen is having definetely better sales numbers here.
