Yeah, I know what you mean. I thought the budget was 10k like you said in the other thread that's why I mentioned it.

 

shit, my budget can be whatever really, I just dont feeling like having a lot of bills,lol. I really want the new CTS-V, but with the new house its not practical...... I may just end up pulling the trigger on a GS; what year and exact model should i look for??

 

2001 or newer is usually the one with all the minor exterior/interior upgrades. If you don't care about that, then I'd get a 99 which should be way cheaper then 10k. Make sure to change out the ball joints as the first thing to do on the maintenance list. I still have the online dealer I used if you need the info. You can choose between a 400/430 and a 300. 300 has inline six like is300 and supra na.

 

Dont listen to him Juan.Get an LS400 at the least.You will regret the GS later.

A 2000 model LS pwns the 2nd gen GS all day long.Just look thru this thread for pics.Everyone in Houston is modding a 2nd gen.OH SO TRUE! keke.

 

There is a reason the 2nd gen is so popular mang!!! 2001 LS would trump a second gen gs but not a 2000 ls.

 

says the man that had an es

 

the gs300 doesnt necessarily have the supra motor. i think only the 98 supra came with vvtl-i. its either that or the 97 has it too. anythin before that doesnt for sure. only like a 5hp difference anyways from what i remember

 

Actually ive had 2 of them.I loved those cars,especially the 2nd one.I wish I had kept one.It was looking pimp on the Eurolines.

 

i would definitely take a 2001 or newer LS over a 2nd gen GS any day, but the LS's are still pricey.

 

That's why I said the 2nd gen gs is the sweet spot. You don't lose interior cabin size.
