About the 1991 Lexus GS

The first-generation Lexus GS represents Toyota's bold entry into the luxury performance sedan market, directly challenging BMW's 5 Series and Mercedes' E-Class. Built on the Aristo platform sold in Japan, the GS300 featured a silky-smooth 3.0-liter inline-six producing 225 horsepower, while the rare GS400 (introduced in 1998) packed a 4.0-liter V8. What sets these apart is their exceptional build quality and reliability, traits that were revolutionary in the luxury segment at the time. The clean, understated design by Toyota's Calty studio has aged remarkably well, avoiding the overwrought styling of period German rivals. Early GS models are becoming increasingly collectible, particularly well-maintained examples with manual transmissions. Their combination of Lexus refinement, Toyota durability, and growing rarity makes them compelling alternatives to more expensive European sedans from the era.
