Haha. Yeah I knew that question was coming.

I remember the days when we took power steering off our cars to gain back horsepower. Definitely not the same feeling I'm getting with the GS. lol.

This link shows the GS300, GS430, and GS450h as having the option. Curiosly, the GS460 is not on this list. Also, let me clarify that I'm only saying that my GS350 doesn't seem to have the option. Don't know about other ones.

GS 460 isn't on the list because VGRS is standard on GS460. It's not an option.

Guys I'm pretty sure VGRS was only an option on the 06 430, NOT the 300. But you know what, I doubt I'd notice if it was there or not considering I do 90% of my driving either in the downtown Toronto core and stuck in traffic one way or another. :P
