My Take: I remember the days when the GS first came out. It was an attractive sedan, sporty and luxurious. Over time, it’s popularity shifted over to the IS and the GS became the “forgotten” sedan. Not so many of them on the road anymore, compared to the IS (they are freaking everywhere). With poor residual value and high MF. It’s popularity will probably stay the same for a few more years.
