GS300 SE Auto vs IS250 SE-L Multi Auto
GS300 SE Auto vs IS250 SE-L Multi Auto
The GS300 similiar to this:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Lexus-GS-300-3...4aad8edec7
or an is250 similiar to this:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LEXUS-250-MULT...3f0d0217bb
(can I add that is250 is pretty cheap !)
Apart from the obvious such as power, and insurance and tax bands.
Which one would you choose and why
I like the is250 for its looks but the GS300 does it for me for spec and luxery.
I am planning to go to Lexus Bradford next weekend to basically sit in both to see what they like in the cockpit.
I have sat in an is before, but not an is250 se l multi, or an gs300
you opionions would be interesting beforehand !

Have you thought of an Infiniti? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nissan-Infinit...35b0ff9214 really just a Nissan 350 with a wider wheel base, and better interior - but great cars if you want a moreinvolved driving experience?

Take them both out for a test drive, having driven both I think the IS is the more refined machine, the GS feels cheaper (to a certain extent because it was) and has a lot more wind/road noise.
Btw, no idea what an IS250 multi is!! Is it an SE or an SE-L?

In case it's a dealbreaker, the GS doesn't have the ML sound system unless it's an SE-L.
