My take on Tru Hart coil overs on my 2009 Lexus GS350 AWD

  • Few months ago I upgraded my suspension from stock to Tru Hart coilovers, everything seemed well and the ride quality was perfect a little bump but good over all, about a month ago the rest started to become a little more harsh. Ex on certain bumps or bridge ledges it feels like the shocks are worn out and just riding on springs. This has caused the driving aspect of the car less fun. It’s so bad that my Subaru feels more comfortable than the Lexus itself. Perhaps I should have bought the coilovers that have the soft and hard option. I am planning to ride the car for the rest of the year as is and upgrade to Tein coilovers next year.

      @@ChoppazOG absolutely and to be honest I actually don’t want the stock feel, reason why I am starting to not to like the Tru Hart is my Subaru has Tein coilovers and it’s bad when the Subaru is more comfortable than the Lexus. What coilovers are you running?

      @@GroupBEJ25 i bought it with amazon coil overs and they felt blown out so i changed to Megan Racing. They ride good but like you said they take bumps and dips hard and noisy inside i was very close to ordering the Tein's. just not fun as a daily driver for me with a 75 mile daily to work . Im torn between getting a early 2000's Ls430 or a Lx470 for my daily. i also own a 2000 gs300 and a 2004 sequoia limited guess you could say i like lexus/toyota.

      @@ChoppazOG ahhh got it interesting, that sucks I have heard stories of ppl that haven’t had good luck with the AWD GS being lowered. I just hate the stock ride height. Yep you definitely like Lexus/Toyota great cars though. I would love to get an LS too while retaining the GS as well.

    Thats why i ordered KYBs for my 08 GS350 awd. I have the twin car to yours and it drives super smooth. I restored the ride back to stock

    Could you maybe do a review showing some of the features and a pov drive, there’s not to many good quality reviews showing the features of this car for some reason.

    Great video, I have a question, is this a good deal, 2009 Gs350 with 80k miles car has 2 dents and some scratches and the inside is a little dirty, dealer should be taking care of most of this, it is priced at $13,500, should I get it or leave it?

      @@noahh1997 Thanks for watching, not a bad deal at all, I got mine for 11k with 136k miles now granted that’s when car pricing was high. If the dealer will take care of most of the issues I think it’s a good deal. If you can please ask for a car-fax history or you can get it yourself. This will at least show you the kind of life this car has had and how many owners etc. Also if you can check the oil, see if it’s low or it’s super dirty most of this can be tell and tell signs of the health of the car. Lastly a test drive drop down the windows and just listen for an unusal sounds. 80K is good miles for that year.

      great cars but that's prob a little over priced. need to be closer to 8500-10000 in nice shape. was able to get mine with 150k miles 2007 rwd for 6000 in 2023
