of course i could be completely wrong...

anyone have car base pricing (on which to add packages)?
doesn't make sense, the title on that paper says gs350 options and builds

Yes I def. agree with you on this as it sounds like every F-sport package has no wood and I have a problem with that as I wish to have wood in mine.

Yeah this is an option list for Gs 350 not 450h the dealers dont even have pricing on them, but I have a feeling it will stay the same.

Also, here are the other number definitions from that Lexus PDF Document.
  • 9300 = GS350 RWD

  • 9306 = GS350 AWD

That's interesting, I had assumed they has some limited wood options on F-Sport just not the premium stuff.

BMW 550i models with M-Sport and Aluminum trim do not sell very well. The vast majority of customers prefer one of the dark wood trims. Lexus should take note.

So what does the passanger seat get in F-Sport? Standard 10 way and no memory? That's some badass cost savings. I didnt even pay attention to that little detail but it clearly says driver's seat not front seats.

Lexus Dynamic Handling Package should have been the part of the F-Sport pack and not another 1K option.

Hmm........this 'dark wood' that you speak of?

Well I stand corrected...

I'm sure the % will be low in this first wave...

What was the MSRP on this one ?
