Smile New GS options?

Hi fellow CL 4GS members,
I am in the 2GS for a long time and love my vehicle and one of my buddy is getting to buy a 4GS. Can anyone give me some advices what model/options that he should definitely get or some options that he can avoid?

Appreciate your help!

Thats so hard to suggest packages and options for someone we don't even know. Everyone has different tastes and opinions. I definitely like the rain sensing wipers though.

And in CA, we dont give a damn about rain sensing wipers, and me saying that reinforces the point that Orbital just mentioned. : )

Personally, Id say F-Sport model ( for looks and handling ) and the ML sound system ( sounds really nice once the low end is augmented with a nicer sub/amp, but that's assuming the stock 10 inch sub isnt enough for you )

F-Sport has no wood trim, which was a deal breaker for me...

It was the deal maker for me

If he cars about how the car drives and feeling the road, then the F Sport. If he wants to be super comfy then not the F Sport.

Same thing for me, don't like wood trim.

When I went to dealer I requested
-Ultra white
-F Sport
-black/silver interior
-HUD

We looked at about 10 cars till we found one with HUD.

Since you are in the empire state, I would say all wheel drive and the cold weather package. And some of my fav's- blind spot, park assist and mark levinson sound and power trunk.
