01-05 GS430 vs. 06 GS430
Is 3rd gen GS430 that much slower than 2nd gen GS430? I never came across the numbers of new GS4, but saw in Automobile mag yesterday that 2006 GS430 stands 6.8sec 0-60, and 15.2sec 1/4 mile. Why would that be? Weight difference?

Personally my best time at the track was 14. 62 . I'm very confident that if I can get my launches down without spinning out the whole I can pull a 14.4x and I'm stock except for exhaust. With headers and a good intake I can imagine what the GS430 can do.

Automobile mags times are ALWAYS around 1 second slower than everybody else. So that time for Automobile is right, that means about 5.8-6.0 for the GS 430 3GS.
3GS is actually only about 40lbs or so more than the 2GS. And the 3GS has an additonal gear, thus times are about the same 2GS to 3GS, it is honestly a drivers race.
THe GS 350, is a PROBLEM. Possibly faster than both!
