Year to Year Changes
2007 Lexus GS:
Base models got a new engine for 2007, triggering a model-name change to GS 350. The new 3.5-liter V6 produced 303 horsepower, up from 245 with the prior 3.0-liter. In fact, horsepower output from the V6 now beat the V8 (now rated at 290 hp), though the latter generated substantially more torque. The lineup now consisted of a GS 350, GS 430, and the hybrid-powertrain GS 450h. A new Power Active Vehicle Stabilizer system became available for the GS 430 and GS 450h, intended to counteract body sway and improve cornering.
2008 Lexus GS:
The 2008 Lexus GS got slightly revised styling and a new V8 engine. New for 2008 was the GS 460. It had a 342-horsepower 4.6-liter V8 and an 8-speed automatic. GS 460 was rear drive only.
