2009 Lexus GS
The 2009 Lexus GS Series
The 2009 Lexus GS Series is a selection of midsize luxury sport sedans offered with rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive options. An impeccable choice for a luxury performance sedan thanks to its excellent road manners and relatively moderate pricing, the 2009 Lexus GS stands out amongst other luxury vehicle competitors.
The GS 460 offers a more powerful V8 engine with an 8-speed automatic transmission with manual shift control when compared to the GS 350's V6 engine and 6-speed automatic transmission with manual shift. This translates into more precise handling and responsive acceleration, as well as a 5.4 second 0-60 MPH acceleration rate for the GS 460 compared to the 5.7 second rate of the GS 350. However, the GS 350 RWD comes in with the highest fuel economy at 19 mpg city/27 mpg highway and 22 mpg combined, compared to the GS 350 AWD and GS 460 which achieve 18/25/20 mpg respectively.
Every model in the 2009 Lexus GS series lives up to Lexus' high safety standards and include antilock brakes with brake assist, stability control, traction control, front- and rear-seat side airbags, driver and front-passenger knee airbags and full-length side curtain airbags. In addition, when you spring for the optional adaptive cruise control, you'll also enjoy an integrated pre-collision system, which uses radar technology to detect and warn the driver of an impending collision, as well as provides pre-tension in the seatbelts and active brake assist if the system deems that a crash is imminent.
You'll feel like royalty with the genuine wood and aluminum trim, which add a luxurious feel to the cabin interior. Plus, to enhance your comfort and provide entertainment during your drive, other standard features are included such as dual-zone automatic climate control, 10-way power front seats, and a 10-speaker audio system with a six-CD/MP3 changer, an auxiliary audio jack and a cassette player.
The 2009 Lexus GS series is the perfect choice for your next luxury sport sedan!
