I noticed that my GS had more balls than before with the ECU....

And for the DBW... You don't have to feather the gas anymore... It's like stepping on the gas if you were driving an automatic.

Curious - how much is maintenance on the GSs? - Tune up, oil changes, etc? I agree this seems like a very cool car for the price of a used one.

Love the car...only drive in "Sport" and never use "Auto". FYI...good luck!

He is right. Toyota Extra Care is the best extended warranty out their. You can get new car coverage if the car is under 3 years from the in service date and 36k miles. You can get a platinum (bumper to bumper) till 7 years 100k. (lots of different time and mileage intervals to suit your needs) I can give you prices if you get into a gransport 4play. I work in finance at a toyota dealership.

i think this carbon fiber guy said something about his dad having one
