The UK spec GS450h Premier can be ordered with LED headlamps, they’re an £850 option. I have specified them on my order due in September.
My local Lexus dealer had two RX450h’s side by side, one with LED and one without. The improvement with the LED was quite marked. I had to have them on my GS450h

I'm actually surprised by the compliments since I am not as impressed with the exterior design. I noticed a lot of non-Lexus people love the new front end, they love its aggressive look. Recently we were coming out of the store and a couple was standing staring at the car, we chatted with them and showed them the red interior and they were blown away. My wife states she gets compliments all the time.
Natnut is right, if we could get the LED headlights, it would look even more dynamic.

I've gotten a fair share of compliments but one was a bit unnerving. I went into a store and a guy walks up behind me and is like sir do you have a GS? I'm like.... Umm maybe lol. He then proceeds to tell me how much he likes it. Just thinking about it makes me realize how bad it could have gone.

I get a lot of complements on my GS. Personally I could care less who likes my car or not. People use to make fun of my Camry and I drove it for 13+ years. I like it and that's all that matters.

This looks amazing and totally transforms the look
Mean!!
Also I really wish we could get LEds on the 350 here
In our garage I have looked over the 3GS and 4GS side by side, both in white and to me while the 4GS looks new, it doesn't really break the mold past the front end. But what I will say is lowered compared to the 3GS the stance is more aggresive even from the rear, you can see the hunches and flares over the wheels more pronounced when its lowered.

Wow Blueprint-love your cars!
You're right, lowered with aftermarket wheels improves the look a lot. I want to do both but I have concerns about ground clearance since we'll drive the GS year-round. I suppose the AWD would make me feel a little better. Only looking to lower an inch at most too.
I think the new GS looks amazing in F Sport trim, I'm not so much a fan without.
The front is aggressive. I wouldn't say the side/rear is as much so, but still subtle, elegant, and athletic.

I've gotten several very nice compliments on the GS. Oddly enough as well I have had more compliments on the Jeep than any vehicle I've ever owned. Just the other day I walked out of the dry cleaners to a couple looking at it in the parking lot, and those Jeeps are everywhere!

The 4GS to me is one of those cars that really looks the part lowered with larger wheels. To me the aggresive/bold front end on a lowered GS looks menacing and the car seems to finally look true to its athletic proportions. Not lowered on stocks its fine but missing that "touch".

I agree, really doesn't matter if people aren't feeling your ride. Call it whatever you want, hate or otherwise, all that matters is that you like it!! Well put. But you just struck a nerve bringing up the Camry!!!! I wish I took pictures back then (before 2006 when my bro totaled it coming home from Stockton through the east bay). I had a 2000 Camry CE, manual tranny (yes manual), shaved emblems, lowered on Eibach springs, KYB struts, strut bar, 18 inch Enkei Enzos (classic rims) on NItto tires with a $3K system (I was young)! That was my baby!! GONE in one fell swoop! I bet you loved that camry like your GS!!
