If your ride is looking like or somewhat close to the rides of most of the members here in CL, then attention is guaranteed.

Depends on how ur car looks..........in the city there is many nice cars but in the boroughs u'll def get noticed if its modded.

BTW who do u want to get noticed by

Lots of people are not modding the 2GS the right way though in NYC and they are very common these days. Kinda sad.

some females and such you know.. you gotta love the attitude of the girls of NY/NJ.. and i dont wanna go there and have them be like get that toyota out of here... my friends m3 is always getting attention from guys but girls have no idea its an m3 and they think its a regualar old 330 coupe... i figure the gs430 is much more luxiourous and has a grreat advantage

also i think if i put the car on chrome 20's that will def get alot more attention then without no rims..

These cars are on every corner in NYC now.. Heck they will be dollar cabs soon like the Chrysler 300C has become.. You must make your car stand out from the crowd. Drop and staggered wheels is a must in the big City.

I live in Westchester NY.... most of the area is Upper class (im middle) there are alot of kids driving cl's, m3's, S4's, maserati's, clk, all types of cars. My gs still turns head... and if it doesnt, well thats fine too (I worked hard for my car, paid for all my upgrades, i take pride in that, most other 22year olds in my area are handed everything). I drive my car becuase i like the way it looks, not becuase other people like it.. If your main reason to upgrade your cars is only to turn heads, then you might be doing it for the wrong reason.

That is a very good response.

Also, the NY/NJ metro area is quite huge from the 'burbs to the inner cities. Where I grew up, teenagers weren't stepping out of BMW's or anything along those lines. For me, I had a Ford Tempo. Hey, I had some wheels and it was better sometimes than riding public transportation. I started small and basic and worked my way from there.
