GS-400 - Simply Awesome

After driving this car for a month now, I feel like I'm in heaven. Performance is unbelievable - ask the BMW M5 who only has a view of my tail lights what his thoughts are!!! This car is truly a regal beast - smooth as silk and all the acceleration you could hope for from a production car.

Had as LS400 and I do have a LX470 so I am onviously sold on the Lexus product. My neighbor bough a 740i recently and I was jealous of the 288 HP engine. Bought a used GS400 with 62K on it. Put in about 1.5K in routine maintenance including 60K service and it's "Katy bar the door!" Unreal fast and smooth handling. Keep the BM'r. This is the ride!

for the money, there is nothing else that comes close. this is a reliable, luxury, and perfomance vehicle all in one. all the bells and whistles will spoil you. i recently sold it for a cheaper car (bad year) and now realize how spoiled i am. the service was great too, but don't plan on fixing anything..if it goes wrong, they replace it. the navigation was great, but at the loss of the nakamichi sound system its a give and take situation. there really was very little to not like about this car. i'd buy another one in a minute.

A TRUE 4-DOOR SPORTS CAR

After owning a GS300 I decided to buy a GS 400 over the BMW 540I . I an certain that I made the right decision. This car is fantastic! The interior and controls are easy to operate and the Nakamichi sound system is the best I have heard (factory sound). The car performs like a sports car (0-60 in under 6 seconds). Certainly , I would highly recommend this automobile.

Could not buy a better used car for the $$$ if you are looking for a V8 and 300HP. Smooth as glass, whisper quiet, AMAZING build quality (especially after coming from a Volvo.) This car feels like it could go 300K miles without a hiccup!
