“Executive.” When you hear this word, what’s the first thing that comes to mind? Is it a suit and tie or private jets; maybe shiny watches or dress socks? Well if it is, you’re wrong. Regardless of what your parents tell you, or what the school says, or even what Websters defines because Jason’s 2006 GS300 is Executive.
I first saw this car coming home from work one day on the exit ramp to my house. I wondered: “Who the hell is this guy? Is he from around here? If so, how have I never seen this car? I’ve lived here all my life and never miss a car that looks this good. Why don’t I know him?” If you’re anywhere near the Baltimore area you should be able to relate to my curiosity. In a town full of broken down Hondas on fake wheels, something like this should stand out in the community.
I saw the car for a second time at Import Alliance Baltimore got to meet the owner, Jason. It turns out the dude lives 5 minutes from my house and drives it daily! The reason why I never took notice was because not too long ago, the car was in a completely different stage, with 22” chrome wheels and stock suspension. It’s amazing what Work Wheels, some love on the fenders, and a drop can do for a car. And if you’re wondering, NO – it is not on bags. This one drives around in a static fashion with an Auto Couture front lip in place at all times.
You may notice that this car doesn’t have a mile long spec list… well that’s why it’s here. Because when you look at it, you probably wouldn’t care about what kind of ‘mods’ it has. It is a perfect daily driver. Not too low to where it would be stressful to drive everywhere, not stock enough to go unnoticed, and comfortable enough to haul around a newborn baby!

Very nice looking car. I can’t say I am a fan of huge cambered cars but I am always amazed at how low some of these static cars sit. I own a daily driven GS350 myself with some mods that will look stock to all the people on this forum but in Canada, I am always having issues with the car sitting too low.

Hey I’m not to far from b more. I was wondering what you used to tint the tails or did a shop do it for you? I’m new to the VIP thing but this gs is exactly what I’m going for.
