Nice, thanks Rash....now that it was explained to us that Lexus wants this GS to steal some LS buyers I understand the more upright profile now. So while I might prefer the coupe like shape of the 2/3GS at least I understand the logic.

Can't wait to see it here this weekend!

the whole center silver trim and then the round airbag on top. somehow seems like it's some random slap-on, copared to what they had in the past.

in this particular case, i keep on thinking iron man

That's my favorite part. I think it looks much nicer than the old steering wheel.

Steering wheel is alright. So far I love the interior. Only complaint on the overall design is the taillights.
The standard wheel is not that attractive though, looks like a pain to clean. 3GS 5 spoke 18's is the best looking gs wheel design.

I wonder if that is a coin box by the right driver's side knee or if it is also another button cubby

when i saw interior details, i thought of you right away...

i like that wheel a lot - heck most of the new toyota wheels are great - smaller and a lot thicker... old ones felt like truck steering wheels.

only thing is base wheels suck. GS-F ones look fine though. Camry SE has better looking wheels :-)

I like that steering wheel also b/c it looks like this Momo, except lexus has the airbag and paddle shifters

@Rash

So I'm guessing it's confirmed that GCC/Middle East versions will use DIRECT INJECTION engine?



Or is the car shown just a demo vehicle (i.e. for show and display purposes)
