My first Lexus
1. GS Premium
2. Riviera Red / Light Gray
3. Nav / No ML
4. RWD / 18" split 5 spoke Superchrome w/ summer tires
5. no DRS
6. no mods yet
7. Considered A6 3.0 - couldn't justify price premium
Dealer demo - got a pretty good deal (I think/hope) - looks brand new, still had plastic film on some of the interior.
Traded in a 07 C6 Corvette

Hello from NJ
Hello everyone. I'm a longtime member here but have never owned a GS until just this past weekend. I'm the proud owner of a white GS350 F-Sport AWD. I traded in a 2013 Range Rover Sport Supercharged Limited Edition to get this car and I'm glad I did!

My GS 350 AWD
Took delivery just before Christmas 2012 and drove to Montreal Boxing Day, it was a nice trip on the 401. The next day Montreal got 45 cm of snow, the highest single day snowfall for the city since 1971! The GS was made for the snow. We took a day trip to Mount Tremblant, the car purrred up and down the autoroute that day.
The car is:
GS 350 AWD
Nebula grey pearl
Technology plus package
I have no plans for any mods just a lot of driving
We looked at the 5 series, E-class, Infiniti M and the Genesis. The total GS package and the fact that we have been Toyota "guys" for better than 25 years helped with our decision to go with the GS.

I'm back, as former CL member 1992 SC 400
1. F-Sport
2. Riviera Red/Black
3. Navigation w/o ML
4. RWD
5. No DRS
I looked into getting Audi S4 or S5, dealership moved to 35 miles away so decided on either a newer Porsche Cayman or the GS
Traded in a 2007 Cayman that was coming out of CPO. Saw this advertised as used 2013 with 480 miles, for 47900, thought it was a good deal.

The ship just arrived in portland, oregon last night around midnight. They'll be unloading my car today and then I'll probably have another 7-10 days before I see it. I can only show pictures of the spec sheet and a receipt for my check right now
