Time to pull Trigger on GS 200t? $11,500 off MSRP

Probably someone ordered it but changed their mind. Last time that same dealer had a fully loaded FSport with rear steering, HUD and all that goodies and was sitting for a while. They seem to get a one-off car sometimes.

I have IS250 also and I feel it's under powered at a smaller chassis, I'm sure 200t will be a joke to drive comparing it with the Bmw 528 which is twin turbo and a joke aswell.

Pole Position
I might check out Hendrick Lexus in Charleston,S.C. when I buy one. They always seem to have pretty good inventory of F Sports and I'll be buying a RWD when the time comes. Don't know if it will be a 17 or 18 but I'm saving my pennies. Hoping the triple beams will be more prevalent by then. The hard decision between now and then will it be a black/red or white/red car!?!?

Hate driving my gf's NX with the 2L Turbo. Just came back from a very very very long road trip with that thing and I still feel like a wet noodle. Woefully underpowered and not very responsive. Should have took my GS instead.

The 350 is not underpowered. Just less power than the competition. It's really more than anyone needs outside of track days. The 2L T would be adequate if Lexus did not prioritize efficiency over performance with it's transmission mappings.

What GS needed was a 300t trim with a kick-*** turbo 6 - not a four-cylinder with a turbo lag.
I haven't driven GS 200t, but I have driven 2.0L turbo engines from BMW, Audi, and Mercedes - they do not simply belong to a 50k+ car. I do not think any CL member will be happy with that engine either.

Nobody "needs" more than a 75HP Fiat, but that doesn't mean that's all those of us in the luxury mid size market are gonna be happy with.
