savvy consumers, especially since it is offered at a price
that is unbeatable in its class.

model. This car is a 4-door sedan with 5-speed automatic
transmission.
Interior Features
Inside the 2003 Lexus GS 430, the emphasis is on quality
and comfort. Leather upholstery is standard, and both the
front and back seats offer a considerable amount of space.
Passengers can access the rear seat without trouble, and
leave it just as easily. There is a memory system that stores
settings for the driver seat, steering wheel, and mirrors.
Heated seats are standard, as is an AM/FM/cassette with
an in-dash 6-disc CD changer.
Other standard interior features offered on the Lexus GS
430 include air conditioning with automatic dual-zone climate
controls, 10-way power bucket seats with power lumbar adjustment
for both the driver seat and front passenger seat, remote
keyless entry, and power door locks and windows. There is
also a power tilt/telescopic leather-wrapped steering wheel,
a compass, a universal garage-door opener, cruise control,
and an interior air filter.
On the GS 430, a navigation system is an option, as is
a Mark Levinson radio system.
Exterior Features
High-intensity discharge headlights that turn on and off
automatically are a standard exterior feature on this luxury
sedan. A power sunroof is standard, as are alloy wheels.
The standard wheels are 16-inch but Lexus is offering the
option of 17-inch wheels with a special seven-spoke design
on the Lexus GS 430. For 2003, the manufacturer has also
added three new exterior colors to further entice customers.
Performance
The performance of the 2003 Lexus GS 430 rivals that of
a sports car; it produces 300 hp at 5600 rpm, and 325lbs-ft
of torque at 3400 rpm. Capable of achieving 0-60 mph in
5.8 seconds, it offers great fuel economy for this level
of acceleration: 17/21mpg (city/highway). It is built with
a 5-speed automatic transmission, and a manual shift capability
that contributes to its precise cornering, and overall exemplary
handling.
