1999 Lexus GS400 review from North America
"One awesome high performance sedan!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have had no problems with the car so far.
General comments?
I did quite a bit of research before buying this car. I started out looking at the BMW 3 and 5-series. I then began looking at the Mercedes Benz C-class and Lincoln LS. After test driving each one, and reading all the reviews I could find, I decided on the GS400. I have not been disappointed. A friend of mine just bought an Acura TL Type-S. He drove my car, and decided that the next time he is in the market, he will look at Lexus first. He said the ride was much nicer, and that the power is awesome. I would have to agree with him on the power statement. This is one terrific car! If you are interested in one, give the certified pre-owned cars a try.
