hello everyone. I just bought a 2006 gs430

I had to get a bit more practical and sold my Acura NSX

Congrats on the purchase. You'll like the new GS better I guarantee it. Not as radical as the NSX, but much sexier IMO and like you said, more practical. Post some pics of this beauty ASAP. Dont forget to check out this short list of goodies for your new 2006 GS http://www.lextasy.com/2006-gs-parts_ctg.htm
You should mod it as quickly as possible and stand out from EVERYBODY else, eventhough I think you are the first on the board to have an 06 GS!!!!

plan on making several "adjustments" to an otherwise amazing machine.

I want to tweak the suspension to get a more M5 ride. The oem sport suspension setting doesn't quite get the job done. Looking for a slightly stiffer suspension and lowered about 1"

If there was a reliable way to boost this v8 to about 400 horses...wouldn't that be sweet
