Not feeling the interior seats colour. Black colour seats look better inside the interior. The auto stick has changed from 4th gen auto tiptronic. I like 4th gen tiptronic.Originally Posted by bigblack06
It belonged to a Lexus Rep. who came in to get snow Tires. Gotta say sitting in it felt like the BMW 5 series cause the roof felt lower than the 3GS. The Engine felt less ticky if you know what I mean. The lights are def. brighter. The ML system is def. better sounds better and less distortion.Attachment 232899

There better be a V8. I wouldn't want anything else. Don't care much for hybrid either.Originally Posted by bigblack06

Otherwise I'm stuck with getting a LS460 Snooooozathon mobile.

Well, I hated the 3GS when it came out. Seriously hated it. I still don't think it's the most beautiful car but I grew to like it's unique stylishness, muscular rear haunches and overall look.
Maybe the 4GS will grow on me.
Not the F-sport, that thing just looks horrible.
I doubt very seriuosly there is a 4GS in my future. Maybe someone will make a body kit that makes it look better but I'm sick of sedans anyway.
I'm going back to coupes.

Do not like the front at all the rear looks kinda cool, sorta like an IS and LS mosh up, but the front is extremely ugly, like they were trying too hard to be different

Sales numbers will tell the truth, but in my recent trips to quite a number of dealers, not a single salesperson had a good thing to say -- that'll change when that's all they have to sell

I test drove a CL and there were 3 things wrong with it. A new car, on the lot and it needed to be serviced. That changed my mind quickly.

Contemplated a cls550 briefly before getting the 3gs. It was more money but the real issue was long term maintenance costs and when I called the mb dealership and spoke to a serv advisor he pretty much told me to be ready to spend lots of $$$ if anything went wrong.

I cant not say Im a huge fan of the new design. Looks too IS-ish. No V-8 model out yet either.
Overall I think the design is not as clean and elegant.
Refinements are neat, interior is not bad, have to see it in person.
I was never a fan of 2nd gen GS, but when the 3rd one came out I loved it right away. I had a 98 LS 400 back then.
Probably not anytime soon, I'm not a fan of the front-end. Hopefully, it will look better in person.Originally Posted by tbilisi79

The car really reminds me more of a LS then an IS, And like a lot of people, I wasn't sold on the 3GS when it first arrived, it had to grow on me. I now can appreciate the styling now except when trying to fit something in the trunk

I really do like the new interior though, and the spec's on the GS450h are really nice...
