Revolutionary Lexus Cars: The GS460 |
| 7/10/2008 11:50:09 AM |
Lexus cars have long time hailed to the GS line up. I know that I still love the late 90’s GS models for their rear wheel drive, extremely stable chassis and ability to handle turbo upgrades. The new GS 460 is a 4.6-liter V8 beast producing 342 horsepower to the rear wheels. And for so much bulky sedan power the new GS gets 17 MPG while in the city and 24 MPG on the highway.
The transmission options are revolutionary to other Lexus cars with the available 8-speed automatic or auto-manual. The suspension is adjustable and the stability system is top of the line keeping this four dour monster pinned in place during high speed cornering and while launching. With a base price of 53,000 dollars, it is comparable to many of the other vehicles you will find at Lexus dealers.
The engine was taken directly from the LS 460, which competes against power sources found in cars like the BMW 550i. I suggest taking a closer look at these Lexus cars if you need space but also love rear wheel performance.
