Checked out the new GS and M

was out with another friend who is looking at buying a car, i decided to stop in the Lexus and Infiniti dealers.

I'm tried right now and dont feel like getting into an indepth review. specially since i didnt drive the cars.

But the Lexus GS is SEX!!!! the interior of this car is so damn nice. It had me drooling, spooging, and crapping my pants all at once. And in person this car just looks fucking sexy. Everything was thought with this car.

The only i didnt really care for was the the way the center console opens and has a "floating" tray. nice idea but seems a little cheap.

Other then if this car drives as nice as it looks, lexus hit money.

The M...nice interior, but the dash felt tall. really high. Interior design is functional, quality is there. I did really like this car a lot from sitting in it...but the tall dash kind of put me off...would have to drive it to get a better idea.

But as far as im concernced the new lexus rocks the house.

Base price for the GS330 and GS330-awd is almost identical to the M35 and M35x.

I saw the new GS on the freeway a few days ago. I have to say that it looked more attractive in person than in the photos. The only thing that I really did not care for was the rear end. Those tail lights looked similar to those on ES 330 (which is NOT a good thing) and kinda cheap....

yeah that glacier white is very nice, has a blue tint in the right light.

But I prefer the car in darker colors. The black or grey quartz color.

match that with the black leather and the blackwood.......mmmmm.

Didnt drive it again, friend didnt want to. But spent more time in it. Still really it. simple and elegant.
