Very old tread.. might aswel ignite it again... ive had CT200h, IS300h, RX450h, ISF, GS300h and in a GS450h.
As the topic was on GS.. i just come off a IS300h 2013, i love the IS, i think its a good balance of quick and family practical and looks fresh still . The GS300h i loved too.. but found it a bit sluggish. Now having the GS450h. . .not going back to 300h. Its spacious, practical, looks great, got plenty of gadgets like the others and bloody quick.
I used to get 28mpg on my old 2009 RX (including Mrs driving it like a diesel), currently im getting 31.1mpg on the GS450h. My IS300h was giving me 38.8 avg.. so i aint complaining. Can't see myself in another GS300h. Ist either IS or GS450h.
Thanks for re-igniting this post. I'm considering a 2012/13 GS 450h vs 2013 IS300h. From my understanding the IS is cheaper to buy, run etc, and is smaller and more agile, but nowhere near as fast and possibly slightly less luxurious. So for me the IS300h is great, but perhaps just not fast enough.
What are your thoughts on the comparison, particularly around the difference in speed?
