2008 Lexus GS 460 Sedan
Posted on Apr 23, 2008 under Lexus |WILLIAM from HOLLYWOOD, FL:Traded my 06 GS 430 for the 460. This car is completely different in positive ways. The way it drives, the power, the transmission, the )turniing ratio (34 ft. vs 37)
Al Hearn from Woodstock, GAThis is as near perfect a car as I’ve ever had. The V8 engine is incredible — outstanding power, acceleration, and speed while getting over 25 mpg on the highway and better than 18 in the city.
The Mark Levinson surround sound system is best demonstrated when watching a DVD movie (while car is parked). It’s like being in a movie theater.
Some say the trunk is small, but I haven’t found that to be the case. It holds all my wife’s stuff, and she has lots of stuff.
It’s a great road car with the most comfortable soft leather seats I’ve ever seen. Love the heat and ventilation. My back normally hurts on long trips in my other cars, but not in the GS460.
It’s quiet, little wind noise, little road noise, and the 8-speed transmission is as smooth as silk. I love the growl of the V8 engine. It is a real pleasure to drive.
I wish I could point out some negatives, but I can’t. Sorry.
