things you hate about your GS
let's dedicate this thread to things you don't like about your GS. I think I like mine way too much.
1) low idle problem, its not a real problem, never notice it until few weeks ago. Got used to driving really loud cars.
2) stock height, I really wish they design the car's height like the new E60, they look real good stock as far as ride height goes.
3) lack of LSD, it really should've been a standard equipment.

the only things that i really hate GS are:
1 the "look" is too sexy and too good and much better than LS, ES and IS.
2 hard to find a good second hand GS. when i discussed with the sales, most GS owners(in Hong Kong) love to use the car to do some sort of racing on the road. as a result, even though there' s no noticeable damages or whatever, the engines were very much abused daily.....although my wife and i love the GS look, i have to pick from ES or LS in the short run:

I'm considering selling the car because of this reason alone.

My dislikes
1) Stock handling is poor
2)brakes kinda mushy but stops well
3)HID could be brighter (I had 01 celica with HID and it was much brighter)

Stock height of suspension - looks too much like suv
stock muffler tips - way too small for oem bumper cutouts
small trunk space with no pass through - have to open sunroof to carry long items
