gs300 and tl type s
About 3 months ago i was in the market for a new car. I strongly considered the new type s as well as the gs300. I ended up getting a 1999 gs300 and love the car. It has brought nothing but happiness.
anyway, yesterday i test drove my friends new type s . really pushed it and i liked what i saw. then handling is much better and of course there is more power. there is much less body roll. i must say that there were too many squeeks and its not as smooth as my gs.
overall, the gs and tl are both great cars. if u like to speed and race and dont care about the comfort get the tl type s. if luxury and class is what u desire then go for the gs300. although i do wish i would've got the 400 for the extra power.
take care

O.G.
They are both great cars. The TL-S is geared towards more sport while the gs300 is more towards luxury. And we all know the gs400 combines both!:wow:
BTW, you should have sold one of your kidneys so that you can get the gs400.

Just don't forget that stock, the GS (3 or 4) is definitely on the soft side in terms of handling. The GS4 goes in a straight line REAL fast, but try turning and things get a little scary. That's where L-Tuned comes in with a pretty affordable suspension swap that's covered under the factory warranty. I have it and the car feels like a MUCH smaller car with solid handling. In fact, the car corners so flat now that what I'm REALLY lacking is proper side-bolstering for the seats!
The GS4 is a great car, no doubt...

not sure the reason for the thread, but...
If you are in the market for a new car, then why did you buy a car that is 3 years old?
"if u like to speed and race and dont care about the comfort get the tl type s. if luxury and class is what u desire then go for the gs300". Right.... The TL is extremely uncomfortable, like sitting on pins and needles.![Confused](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/confused.gif)
SSItls, be careful of stolen GS' reconditioned and sold on the cheap.

I used to own a gs300, and it sucked imo.
I hated the car...no power, many problems, and it was just not what i wanted in a car. I bought the tls, and have been happy ever since.

Everyone is going to have an opinion on whether they like this car or that car better. I would probably drive just about any car with enough interior room and HP/TQ. Others would not.
