GS450H or LS460 Sport? HELP!
 
Hey guys, well it's that time that I've been waiting for to trade in my 04 Acura TL and move up drastically to either a 2010 GS450H or 2010 LS460 Sport. Both are driving me crazy because I absolutely love the look of both cars and the more I keep looking at the wheel photos makes it even harder ;)

I have 3 kids but 2 of which are older so size doesn't matter (LOL)

I do prefer the GS due to the super sleek looking and 20" are a win BUT the LS on 22" with the air ride and data controller is a super win!!! not to mention the 19 speakers are better then the 14 hehe.

HELP! PLEASE! POSSIBLY MAKING THIS EASIER. I know that I have to drive each car and I have not yet but any more input would be awesome and thanks.

Also pricing is pretty close for each car and it looks like the gas mileage is also pretty darn close so I don't believe that is an issue either way unless I'm wrong??

Two completely different cars. I can tell you that the GS450h is a blast to drive though VS the LS. All depends on your preference.

I love my GS 450h and it has been a fantastic car and I agree, it has aged very well. The LS though is on another level and the 2010 Sport is the older LS model to get. The GS of course gets better MPG but who cares when comparing these two cars, it is obvious. The LS is much larger inside and out and built to a higher standard with much better materials. You also get Brembo brakes and other goodies like the Sport interior. The LS and GS have very similar acceleration/performance though they achieve it differently. I do miss the quiet and hybrid aspect of the GSh in the LS (the LS is quiet but a car with no engine running has 50% less NVH). I'm not sure on the 2010 but the current LS F-sport is the better handling/driving car and the brakes are better. The LS Sport also has a LSD.

If you can swing it go with the LS but the GS is a great car in its own right.

Buy the LS!

I believe air ride is only on the longer bodies. An LS is more reliable

Aren't the gs450H hard to find nowadays? I've looked for it too, couldn't find it anywhere

yes very hard to find as well as a 2010 LS460 Sport is going to be fun to find! ;)
