Hello 3GS section! Only two days ago, I picked up a 2008 GS460 from a local seller and fellow forum member. The car is Matador Red Mica on Black. So far, I have been extremely happy with it; it's way more comfortable and faster than my 1998 GS400, although I will be keeping both. Now for a few pictures;
I look forward to being a part of this corner of the interwebs, and hope to meet you all!
I've never been a big fan of red-ish cars, but I was actually considering this color for my GS. It works on that car. The 4.6 makes it work even better.
Congrats on your new baby. I went from an 01 GS 430 to an 09 GS 460 (red) and love it. Just be careful of the paint. It is softer than the black on your old one.

At first, I wasn't either. After seeing this color up close in person on a new IS parked on the showroom floor at the local Lexus dealer, I simply fell in love.

Thanks! Other than a few minor cosmetic tweaks, it'll mainly stay stock.

Sure do! Not a bad club to be in, if I do say so myself.

Ah yes, I've noticed that the newer paint is more prone to chipping.

Thank you! It actually is required; I simply run the risk on the black car, but will put one on the red car as it is already drilled for one.
Very nice. And I'm with you on the front plates.....I also run without on several of mine, and it's been years since I got hassled. Even if I do, it's a non moving violation
