But I don't think the GS300 can match the Legend in terms of power.

Yup. At 300 bhp, it will smoke the GS300.
i m oso keen on the legend, with the all new SH-AWD.
however, i heard thte 3.5 l engine is a old engine.
i was hoping they put in the 3.0l DOHC iVTEC instead...

Yalor, its a SOHC VTEC V6. I'm not into technical details but when I was in MCF, I was told a V6 can't be a SOHC.

With the new SAE testing procedures, the Legend or "KB1" has a 295bhp rating instead of the 300 originally marketed.
I wouldn't make the mistake of calling the J35 an old engine but it certainly isn't "new" either. Introduced in 1999 as the J25 displacing 2.5 litres, it has spawned the birth of the J30 and the J32. Technically speaking then, the J35 is new as it was created for the KB1.
From what I have read, the car does the century sprint in roughly 7 seconds and I'm not a technical know-all as well but it is a 60 degree V-engine SOHC configuration.
who even cares about the GS300? not I for sure (:

Chio car. They shouldn't ve named it "legend". Now, everywhere hear say... really like "legend" from storybook. Got hear before, but never really see before.
At least, the car will die a legend. about 300 bhp with sh-awd.
