Toronto, ON  1999 Lexus GS 4000 12,500 mi V8 - 4.0 Liter- 5 speed, sunroof

The Lexus luxury line scores well. AP gave his Lexus GS 400 top marks. He gave his GS top scores in every category except highway handling, parking ease, air, heater and storage. All other categories, such as handling and acceleration received the top marks. AP notes that some would like firmer handling but "the luxurious ride in a sort sedan makes the GS 400 a pleasure to drive." AP has switched tires around on this vehicle. He replaced the original equipment Potenzas with the Michelin Pilots. The Potenzas apparently were wearing poorly and contributed to vibrations. For winter AP uses Blizzaks which work well. Overall, high scores for an exemplary sedan.
