Not that this forum will be biased, but TL for sure. No Contest IMO.

Depends what you want, the GS300 is a more bulky car while the TL is a bit more of a "sport-like" family sedan. Now if you went for the GS400, that thing is a beast. But both of them can be modded to look awesome.

I used to like the GS's and still do. Now that I have a TL, I'd vote TL.

My next car will be a newer TL or RL. My next project will be an S2000 canyon/track beater. I've always been a Honda guy, hell with Toyota.

Depends what you plan to do with it.

Personally, GS300- VIPed = hotter

Realistically, TL= better choice overall

I was debating on buying a GS b4 i got the Type S but I didnt read up on the modability of those cars. You can do numerous things to that car. Do a motor swap wit the Supra motor, Turbo the stock motor, or get the 400/430 for torque out the ass. The GS has everything the TL has and more in some categories. But i do love my TL. It really comes down to what you want to do to the car and what you like.

Good answer this way I don't have to beat you the next time I see you .. I traded mine for the GS because my 2nd tranny was gonna take a dump on me. Then I figured how much it would cost to the 6spd swap and SC and for the price of that I could have 6-700hp GS300. To mod the GS is pretty reasonably priced and you get more bang for your buck plus its actually very good in the snow suprisingly enough.

even though I don't like Toys, I'd rather have a nicely modded GS over a 1999 TL.
