Got a GS450h and loving it
Just purchased a black 2013 with only 27k on the odometer for 27k USD (I'm in Canada so did the units conversion). Absolutely loving it. The wife also adores it.
I'm continually amazed at how effortless everything is. It just goes and does what I'm willing it to do and it's super comfortable at the same time. We probably won't be able to take it for ski trips but that's what the WRX is for.
I'm going to get some tint, install a dashcam and look into a clear cover for the front when I get a chance. Pleased to join this forum!

Congrats ChronoR! Really glad to hear you're enjoying yourself. My car has slightly less miles than yours, but it's been an absolute joy to own for the 2+ years that I've owned it. I am averaging close to 30 mpg and my main travel doesn't even involve the highway, otherwise I'm sure that number would be higher.
What type of options does your car have? Do you have any pictures of it? If so, please do share.
Lastly, welcome to the 4GS hybrid club - hope you stay active, there is only a handful of us here that are. The hybrid is a rare bird. Be sure to check out the main 4GS forum, there is a lot of good info there that applies to our vehicles as well.

My GSh is the base model as far as I can tell, it's too bad this car is so rare that finding one with options is trickier. Still really luxurious coming from a Jetta TDI lol.

Most of Canada gets lots of snow but not in my area in Vancouver BC (except this year where we got a lot more than usual). I'll get dedicated snow tires for light snow and can always take the WRX if it gets bad.

Good job!
I just got my 3rd GS not to long ago, it is the Hybrid, and I am in Canada too!
Tons of snow, and MINUS 20c degree, no problem!
Indeed, I trade my GS350 AWD to GS450H RWD! The RWD looks "right" with half an inch lower!
