Stick around and check in once in awhile. I don't feel going from an IS to a GS is an automatic upgrade, so I'm not sure why everybody thinks it is a better vehicle. My IS 350 with ML/XM/Nav/Sports/GFX/G-Spiders is my vehicle of choice. For the price I paid for the IS I could have gotten into a GS, but given that choice I preferred the tightness of the IS and I wouldn't change a thing.

Thanks,guys.
I love the GS.It is a very different vehicle than the IS and both have their strong points.
I'm missing this forum,though.

Nice upgrade. Not too fond of the exterior, but I am really impressed with the interior.
