2003 Lexus GS 300
The 2003 Lexus GS 300 is a mid-luxury entry in the
sedan class. With more performance and a larger chassis
than the little brother, “luxury-entry” IS
300, the GS is all about handling and comfort seamlessly
blended in an attractively designed and affordable car
to satisfy those with a taste for luxury but an eye
for good value.
With a 220-horsepower inline V6 engine, it can reach
60 mph in 7.8 seconds and through the quarter-mile in
15.8 seconds. The GS 300 features E-Shift controls on
the steering-wheel spokes that allow the driver to let
the transmission shift automatically, or for a more
engaging driving experience, control gear shifting with
the buttons. However, even with a focus on performance,
the GS sedans present the luxury design and details
that define the Lexus brand identity.
Under the Hood
The GS 300 share the 3.0-liter inline V6 engine that
the sporty IS 300’s enjoy. The 220 hp is achieved
at 5,800 rpm and 218 lb.-ft. of peak torque is available
at 3,800 rpm. The presence of Variable Valve Timing
with intelligence (VVT-i), delivers solid power throughout
the engines range.
Two advanced features optimize handling and help the
driver in emergencies and/or poor driving conditions.
Antilock brakes (ABS) with Brake Assist, a device that
reads the signs indicating emergency braking and engages
the ABS, and Vehicle Skid Control (VSC), which dampens
front and rears wheel slide in emergencies.
Lexus is a leader in safety. What is extra equipment
or unavailable in most other sedans, the Lexus cars
feature as standard equipment. Cutting edge technology
includes three-point seatbelts for all five seating
positions, dual front airbags, front seat-mounted side
airbags and front side curtain airbags. Pretensioners,
force limiters and height adjustable anchors all add
to front seatbelt effectiveness.
Standard Features, Options Packages and Style
The dual-zone automatic climate control has a smog-busting
sensor that automatically switches to re-circulation
mode in response to excessive hydrocarbons. This is
indicative of the high degree of attention that has
been paid to occupant comfort in the Lexus GS 300. Anther
subtlety is the Optitron instrumentation that reacts
to ambient light levels to brighten or darken the performance-oriented
instrument cluster.
A multi-function entry system allows the driver to
open all the windows and the moonroof before getting
in on a hot day and the perforated leather upholstered
10-way power front seats ad still further to your comfort.
This is a comfortable, quiet and environmentally controlled
ride where your needs have been comprehensively anticipated
and planned for.
