We replaced our 03 GS300 with an 06. Loved the old one figured we'd love the newer one. Wrong. Brakes, cruise ride , AC and Nav don't work as good as old car. Ride and handling choppier also. Tranny hunts for gears at low speed and in the hills. Has been in the shop 5 times in three months. Disappointing car. Great to look at but no fun to drive. Am going to trade for something that I can live with.

Body integrity is the issue

The new GS 430 2006 has plenty of technical features, unfortunately this was my third lexus purchase but the worst. The body integrity is very poor I had a 18mph accident and the car damages $10,000, the other car had a minor fender bend.

Lexus Let down in Sheboygan WI

This car is not up to Lexus standards . It rides rough, there was road noise (could not even hear the radio) vision is restricted (blind spots) the 3.0 245hp engine performed like a "Briggs & Stratton 5 hp lawn engine. I was literally scared to venture out into oncoming traffic on a major highway. Interior was well appointed, and luxurious, seats were fine, but overall not a fun car to drive or ride in. Dissapointing for a Lexus and I have two of them which are the best cars I have owned.
