New GS450H owner

[Stealth Badger]

Hi all.

Just traded in my 2010 Prius T-Spirit for a 2009 GS450H SE-L, can't wait to pick it up next weekend.

Always join the owners club for info and meetings, used to do a lot of car shows with past cars but have had to be sensible for a while.

Lovely car, welcome to the club!

There is a club meet in April at the British Motor Museum in Warwickshire if you're keen  🙂

Club meet sounds like a good idea. I'll have to check on dates 'cus the Mrs had bought tickets for Santa Pod in April

Welcome, I'm sure the GS will be a big change to your Prius 😲

Let us know how you get on.

Hi Matt.

I did exactly the same as you 4 years ago. I even bought the same color Gs as you.

The GS450H is a totally different animal to the Prius I think the only thing they share is there reliability. The Gs is for it's engine size, and performance is very good on fuel at around 35/40 mpg, but know where near the Prius's 60/65 mpg. The Prius did 0-62 in 10.6 seconds the Gs does the same in 5.2 seconds. Enjoy your new toy.

To be honest the Prius was bit of a culture shock when I first got it, was more used to things like this before.
