Thanks for the clarification! I was really surprised when I read your original post, so your follow up definitely helped. Thanks again ~alpha |

"Merc1: You may not believe it, but any Lexus is looked at as prestigious, be it an IS or an LS. Your friends don't say, hey you only drive an ES or IS so that don't count as a Lex ? Do they ? Ditto for an MB. Most people simply say I drive an MB, even when they drive the lowly C240! Oh I believe it, you have badge people for every brand, but in the case of the Avalon and the ES330 there isn't any substance over the Avalon to warrant any prestige imo. The ES330 is imo just that, a tarted up Toyota compared to the Lexus GS,LS,SC models and now it isn't even superior to the lesser "Toyota" once you look past the badge. M |

Received a correction from the Automotive News writer who wrote that the 350 and 460 are slated for spring '05 release. He checked and found what we all know here that the spring release will be the 300 and 430. Automotive News will print a correction in a subsequent issue. He said the 350 and 460 will be "mid-cycle upgrades" to which I replied that "mid-cycle" is perhaps a slight exaggeration, considering that it may be only 6 months or a year, thus putting the forthcoming 300 and 430 in a kind of resale limbo.

What is a "mid-cyle upgrades"? I am planning to purchase 2006 GS300 when it comes out around March or April? What is the estimation that GS300 will become GS350? next year? I am afraid that once I purchase GS300, it will change to 350 very soon. Is it better to wait?

Replying to: lexi4life (Jan 26, 2005 2:39 pm) Now that makes a lotta sense especially as Lexus wants to compete against the engine variants of the BMW. |
