Default Weather Tech Floor Mats GS350 AWD

The FloorLiner™ DigitalFit® mats for the GS350 AWD are ready for consumer consumption.

http://www.weathertech.com/lexus/201...l-wheel-drive/

Only available for the front seats. The back row should be ready within 6 weeks.

The pic on their site doesn't look like a 2013, but they assured me over the phone that they are the right mats.

$99.95 for the front 2 mats and shipping I was told is $18.

Since Bolingbrook is within an hour drive of me, I decided to save the shipping costs by going there to pick them up. Besides...it gives me a good excuse to head out for a drive.

Thanks, I have been waiting for these to come out.

I have used them on all my other vehicles, they stand up well to our Minnesota winters...

Just placed my order.
Will post a review when they show up.

Awesome thanks for the update. I have been contemplating buying the Lexus all weather mats but were waiting for these to come out so I could cross shop. Do you guys think I should just go ahead with the Lexus mats for about $135 or pay a little extra for the front and rear WeatherTech mats when the 4 piece set is available? The price I quoted was from Sewell Lexus btw.

Does this fit the non-AWD FSPORT?

I wouldn't bother the the Lexus rubber mats. They are flimsy & thin. I'm NOT impressed. My Acura mats are 5x heavier more durable.

Not sure. You might want to call and ask them.

I bought the Lexus mats and returned them the next day.

Weather tech is higher all around and holds plenty of winter gunk. The Lexus mats don't come close.

Did they give you a date that they would be ready for the F-Sport when you called them?

Thanks for the update. Look forward to hearing about the trunk liner and rear seats. I got the Lexus OEM ones with my car (no extra charge), but would also spring for the Weathertech ones if they were available. I'll ride out this winter with my OEMs until a full set is available from Weathertech...

If I recall correctly, the trunk liner will be available within 8 weeks or so at a price of 125-150.

Something like that. If you want an exact price on that, you should call them.

I will pick up my front mats on Friday and when the othrs are available, I will buy them too.

BTW, I was told they are only available in black right now...

Thanks, black is what I'd get anyways. I'm in Canada so the prices are a bit high (even though I do business outside of Bolingbrook). I'll wait to do a group buy with an auto shop near me that seems to do a big order every 6 months or so.

Very happy with our trunk liner for our Ex35, and this would be probably my 5th car I've bought Weathertech for. Very good stuff.

I live in Illinois and to my knowledge any purchases made in person in Illinois pay sales tax unless they are shipped to another state. Can I ask how you are going to Bollingbrook to pick up the mats and not paying Illinois sales tax?
