2000 Lexus GS Preview summaryImage

With a major overhaul scheduled for the 2001 model year, there were few changes to the final version of the Lexus GS 400 in 2000. Just one-year later the car's 4.0 liter V8 would be replaced by a 4.3 liter power plant and the GS 400 would become the GS 430.

Changes from the 1999 model year included the addition of a BrakeAssist system and child seat-anchor brackets. Crystal White and Millennium Silver Metallic replaced Diamond White Pearl and Alpine Silver Metallic as color choices.

Drivers had few complaints about the GS 400, or at least fewer complaints than they would have about the first few versions of the GS 430. "Handling and performance wise, it is one of the best in it's category in my opinion," said one reviewer after five years of ownership. "It will stay with or outperform a BMW 540 any day and cost a lot less to maintain."

I have the 2000 Lexus GS 300 Platinum Edition. The car is sleek, stylish and cutting edge! Not only does it have some "get up" it definitely makes you feel important! The seats "hug" you so to speak and I love that! My first Lexus car! I don't think I will go back to anything else!Jan 20, 2012

It's the most badass car ever man. Supra engine, albeit without the turbos. Very forgiving car as long as you have the right tires. Speed governor kicks in at 135 mph. This car begs to get some turbos slapped on the engine like it's Japanese counterpart. Brakes could be a bit better. First repair this car had maintenance wise was done at 115K miles. The style is timeless. The car was almost unchanged for 8 years, with the exceptions of new lights and wheels. Cost of ownership is not so bad, although ga mileage is not up to par with some of the newer cars. This car is point blank badass...Oct 26, 2009

The car is all together solid and the up keeping is not that bad at all... I've been in a couple of races never lost. It's a very smooth ride and the handle is great I would most definitely recommend this car to anybody who is interested....May 28, 2009
