Another UK review of 3rd Gen GS

[Alex K]

4car (Channel 4's car website) have posted their review of the 3rd generation Lexus GS.

http://www.channel4.com/4car/road-te...05-/gs05-.html

Summary:

Assets
High-tech safety kit, refinement, hybrid option, Lexus reliability and quality, handsome looks

Drawbacks
No diesel option, hard ride, poor steering feel, lack of character; VDIM and pre-crash safety systems only in GS430 model

Verdict
It's not quite the all-out sports saloon Lexus claims it to be, but it's a comfortable, sophisticated, high-quality choice with some unique touches

Those pictures are some of the most amazing yet of the GS...truly a work of art.

Top Gear has an review up as well, pretty favourable - called it "shocking".

Top Gear accepts the GS3's design philosophy and gives a fair review.

Ch4 seems to think the GS430 is flawed because it's not a Beemer, please the 545i has variable gear steering standard too.
