Correction:
The 2001 GS430 will have the SAME hp (300) and an increase of 15 lbs of torque (from 310 to 325). The biggest gripe of the GS430 is that it no longer has e-shift (like the IS300) for emissions reasons. However, the 2001 GS300 now has e-shift.
No idea about the LS430, the LS400 had 290 hp in 2000 and they will still probably keep it less than the GS430's HP cuz the GS series is the "sportier" luxury sedan on the Lexus Lineup.
