06 GS300 or 07+ GS350?
I'm in the market for another car and just recently considering the GS line. However I am not sure if I should get a GS300 and save some cash or spend the extra money to get the GS350. There is a local private party sale that has a crystal white 06 GS300 with 49k miles and navi asking for $23,900obo. I asked the person if they would consider $20,000 and he told me to ask again in a month if the car doesn't sell. If I could get it for $20,000, that sounds like a good deal?
2006 GS300 RWD Crystal White w/Gray Navigation 49K miles One owner, service record at dealer and still has a year worth of payments so no title in hand. Stock chrome factory rims. I will get a PPI before any car purchase. Another car I was considering in the Lexus line was the is250/350. On another note, I want white but I am not sure if maybe black is a better color for a sedan. Thanks |
sounds like a good deal for 20k if you can, but if i were you, i'd look for a 350 if you can. Just my experience.

I wish that poor GS300 owner can get more than $20k...
|
get the 350 if it's not too much more
|
350 hands down

As some previous threads mention, the price difference people are willing to pay vary, but if you can the gs350 for about 3k more, most people say it's worth it for the better engine (more hp at similar gas mileage), next-gen Navi, and better resale value.

I'm in a similar situation. The lease on my 2006 GS300 Onyx Blue ends in August 2010 adn the payoff is only $18,000 but I want a 350 so bad. The ones I've found with similar miles than mine are like $25-$29K, that's a huge difference for me, specialy now that I got burned with my real estate properties in South Florida. I might do the responsible thing and just buy the 06 from the leasing company and rock it till things get better.:sad: besides, I got an R1 to get my speed fix

How do you like your GS300, is there anything I should look for if I was to buy the one I mention. If I'm gong with the GS line it's more for luxury and comfort than speed. I have a GSXR 750 that I can rock all day long in the hills or at the track.

i was in the SAME SITUATION AS YOU WERE..... THAT IS UNTIL I DROVE THE 350...................................:)
|
350.................

The price is right for the 300. Seems like a steal. I wouldn't pay more than $3-$4K more for a 350. If you're going to get a 350, I would get an 08+. The updated styling makes the car look a lot newer.
