Overall a Great Car

I have had my “06” GS 430 for nearly two weeks. Our other car is an “03” LS and the new GS is nearly as smooth and quiet. The GS 430 has plenty of power and hugs the road. The cabin is intimate and comfortable you can feel the quality. Electronics are state of the art and the surround sound is awsome, the nav. intuitive and the interior lighting cool. Many features can be programed to the owners preferences. No car is perfect, the blue tooth isn't perfected yet, but it works. If you require loads of trunk space this is not the car for you and if you are tall you should check out the head room. This car may not be best in class in every catigory, but overall it's a winner.

This is one of the best luxury cars in the world. However, its price for all of the features you get is reasonable.

GS 430 More for the money than CLS500

After many MB's and BMW's this is my first Lexus. I am overwhelmed with the build quality and the effort that went into the smallest detail. My Black/Chasmere gets "thumbs Up" from everyone on the street. The spider wheels give it a very hip young look which suprises everyone when they see my gray hair.

I had a '99 GS 400 that i drove for 212,000 miles and now my son drives it. This new GS 430 is even more fun to drive.The six speed transmission along with the engine management systems make it a dream. It is the best blend of performance and comfort i have found on the market. I know some sedans have more "feel" but I am impressed with how the car lets me truely enjoy the road but keeps me comfortable enough for long trips. The Levinson sound system is truely the best I have heard in any car.I am completely satisifed so far in the first 8,000 miles , yes that is right i already have over 8,000 miles on the car.

Old GS was great, New GS is amazing.

Before I leased this car, I had the older generation GS 430. I thought nothing would top it in terms of performance and driving enjoyment. However, I was wrong. The 2006 GS 430 is even more fun to drive with tighter steering, better acceleration, and STEPTRONIC!!! I was deciding in the end between getting the GS 430, the Mercedes E500, and the BMW 545i. I am very happy to have chosen the GS as it is the king of the midsize luxury sedan class.
