Default lexus gs300

found out im going to be a daddy, and im really interested in this sedan.

what are you experiences with this car?
is having over 100,000 miles going to be a dent on maintenance costs?
also how does it do in bad weather situations with it being a larger rear wheel drive car?
oh and pics of vip gs300's would be great!

thanks!

Modern Rear Wheel Drive cars with Traction Control and decent All Season/Winter tires do just fine in the Winter. They do still use Crown Vic Police Cars in the snow belt.

Don't own one... but my reckless room mate does! Damn nice car. The overall quality of a Lexus, both inside and out is incredible.

Get a GS400...the 1UZ is indestructible. 6-bolt mains, in 1998-2000 it was voted one of top ten motors in the world...I should mention it was the 3UZ during that time.
