well, if pimp is what you are after, here in NYC, the "G" in GS300/GS400 stands for Pimp Gangster...lol.

The Lexus GS300 is the one for u mate! Ialmost has the power of the V8 and is much more economical, plus u will hold more when it comes to the residual value!

why the hell would you go from the camry to a lexus, that makes no sense. you have a perfectly great car right now, you just want to give an extra 10-20k to toyota so they can sell you the same car except with an (L) on it and some navigation screen. cmon man thats crazy, enjoy the camry you got now. if you really want to get a new car, get a BMW or benz. But still I would stick with the camry. Oh yea and dont forget the yaris man, seriouisly.

Becuase Lexus offers better interior materials, better fit and finish, and significantly tighter tolerances between body panels, than their Toyota counterparts. They are produced in plants that ensure the highest quality control proceedures, the best in the world. Also, no current Toyota car offers RWD. Lexus has been ranked #1 in reliablility in survery after survey while Toyota has been ranked lower in recent years.

Benz and BMW mostly represent status now. You do not get class leading reliability, refinement, quality and comfort from them that you would get in a Lexus.

Plus..........

there are no V8 toyota sedans or even ones with the I6.

I really wish they produced Aristos here. I would have bought one of those years ago.

What better to have than supra balls and avalon class?

I would assume there is more room to work on, more room for people in the cabin and smoother ride.

Why wont Toyota put a V8 in the Avalon, a V6 in the Corolla a 4.0V6 (from the Tacoma?)in the Camry a 2.4I4 in the MR2 (if it was still around) and why are they abandoning the I6?

I guess when you are #1 you can mess around a bit.....but.....still...........
