Default First post and first GS

Being lurking around this forum for years and since I finally picked up a GS I figure I mineswell post it. Btw, I love driving this baby. 2013 GS350 F-Sport. Not sure which mod I'm doing first but it will prob be plastidip the emblems. Looks easy to do and I think it looks pretty awesome. Any suggestions??

Hey, congratulations on your first post and especially on your GS! I also have a '13 model, so if you have Cabernet interior we are twins. The Liquid Platinum looks especially great at night!

I'm also in TX... Dallas. I can see you are in the Target parking lot. Just not sure which one!

You're going to scrub all the paint off your roof if you drive it with the wheels up!

Congrats on the GS 350. Love that Liquid Platinum!

He was just trying to show how it "hangs" it corners.

Looks like both y'all from Dallas area. Which Lexus dealership you like better for service. Looks like Park Place Plano and Sewell are the only two.

I live about 2 miles from where you took that picture!

Park Place Plano of course is just a few miles from me. Park Place Grapevine (near DFW airport) is also very good. I don't have any experience with Sewelll in Dallas, but most say good things about them.
