2014 Release?
I'm looking into this car and have been hearing a lot of things between my dealer and online. I know this car came out about a year and a half ago as a 2013 model. Since it's already at 18 months, when are the 2014 models slated to drop? Also, any news of a blown or v-8 equipped GSF model?

the 2014 GS will probably get 1 or 2 minor changes. i doubt we'll see the LFA style gauges ever in a GS. 2015/16 may see some changes. CTM is definitely one of the upgrades.

Agree on the LFA gauges. I doubt it ever shows up in the LS or GS. You'll have to pardon my ignorance as I'm a Lexus newbie. I searched the forum and google multiple times... I could not find out what CTM stands for. Sorry. I too am on the fence. I could pull the trigger and order now or wait and see if the 8 speed shows up or not. I'm a little bit worried about getting a 6 speed and taking a big depreciation hit if an 8 speed is added this next year. My dealer was a bit cryptic about when one could order a 2014 stating that they would be here in the fall. I would think one could order a 2014 in May or June.

Thanks. I'll have to look that one up. My local dealer tells me that very few people are getting the upgrades like the heads up display, Lane departure warning, etc. Seems like blind spot monitor is pretty common. My hesitation is the 6 speed versus the 8 speed.

I'm kind of put off on buying now because of the fact that I missed the december event deals. I was going to buy a Mercedes and the dealer said they ordered a car a month ago and took my deposit and then never did. Instead they wanted more money and wanted to make the deposit non refundable. Needless to say I took my money and my business away.
I wonder when the next good deals will be and how they will compare.

6 Speed vs 8 speed isn't a big deal to me.
They'll be some nice improvements in the midcycle refresh model in '15 or '16.
Toyota always holds back things for the refresh to get more sales.

I would think very few people are getting HUD,Radar Cruise,Lane Departure because very few come in with those options and none in most areas.You have to special order.
