Considering what to get next?

[CDNVITZ]

Okay well the time is soon coming for us to change our vehicle and just wanted some opinions on what you guys think we should get?

Choices are

1) 2001 Lexus Is 300 (215 horse's)

2) 1998 Lexus GS 300 (V6 engine 220-225 horse's)

3) 1998 Lexus GS 400 (V8 engine 300 horse's)

4) 2004 Toyota Solara (SE V6- 225horse's or 4 cyl-157 Horse's)

You don't have to reply ... just do the poll!

Thanks for your help guys!

gs400....v8 power......turbo the thing...or an 100 shot nitrous...and u'll be king of the roads.....

if you have money to turbo the GS4 dont bother getting it because the kit is worth $20-32K USD lolz.. better use that money to buy another car.

Supercharging is a better option, much more wallet friendly.

dont get a 98 get a 2000 GS4.. they go for as low as $28K now..

Thats my vote...... GS4!!!

[jucee187]

oor.. GS300 is another option .. They have turbo kits for that too that are cheaper.. and you can always do a 2Jz-GTe swap.. hehe.. 900HP!!!

Wow, tough choice!

My first choice would be to go VIP style with the GS400. I've always been fond of the bubble eyed GS, not to mention the pwr. Although, it's 6yrs old now..it's still a Lex.

Unless you intend to drop a shit load of money to an IS300 to make it unique, I'd skip it.

I mentioned above that the GS was old, that makes a shiney new Solara a worthy contender. Being a previous Solara owner, you know how rare they are. Modding it won't be very fun though. Get a 'vert!!!

Okay, I wasn't much help but I say GS400!!!

[kasimmmmm]

GS400...as phi said its 6 years old now...but you can get one in good condition.
There is also the solora...i have not seen many of them, they're quite rare.
Its all up to you but i would say GS400 or Solara

23k usd for a turbo...what kit is this....i can piece together a custom kit with FMIC..e manage..injectors..exhaust....for under 10gs CAD....i was looking into this for a friend of mine but he balked at price....sure....everyone wants to be fast..but dun wanna pay.....

Have you guys test drove each car yet?

[SpectraBlueCam]

Already voted in person.

[Fresco Bob]

ya id go for the GS400. the V8 would be fun to have, even if you dont want to turbo/super charge.

GS300s come with a 2JZ-GE. He could just bolt the turbo on.

I say IS300 just cuz its the car young professionals should drive.

really? from what i've read, the engine is in fact slightly diff btwn the NA and the TT versions, and the NA one can't handle as much boost stock.

Actually I wanna change my vote to the new Solara.... I actually like it... front & rear.... reminds me of a higher end Lexus
And's it's roomy enough and an upgrade to your current ride... so you'll know what to expect.
