Default GS300

Well we took my moms car in to have it serviced, and they gave us a brand new 2006 GS300. Let me tell you they did a good job updating this model. They have done it this time. I never really liked my moms car cus the seat doesn't go back far enough, it has a stange rolling motion over bumps that leads to a sloshiy head feeling, and the list goes on and on. This new one on the other hand, has a suspention that reminded me of driving my audi. Nice and tight, when you want it to be. also it pretty fast for such a heavy car with only a 3.0L in it. Anyway it was just fun the beat the **** out of someone elses car for a day or two.

I love the new GS. I like that color of red that they are using now, even though I'm not a very big fan of red. I love the new IS. They changed every part of it for the better. I couldn't stand the body style of the last IS. I like Lexus.

I agree. I know they are nice, with great ratings, but they also bore me to tears. That exterior stying does nothing for me.

Don't gimme any of the 'no soul' bollox... A car has soul if it excites you, and makes you go out for no apparent reason, JUST to drive it! Some people say cars with soul have character, and that character may be breaking down, squeaks, annoying traits that they find adorable. You get a japanese car that does thing perfectly and they get stuck with the no soul tag, in very much the same way BMW abnd Audi do back at home... Every car has soul, you just have to know where to look! There are car owners clubs for every car ever made. Those owners love their cars to bits. Try telling them they have no soul.
