GS-F vs LS-F
#18
went to Lexus today to see if the 2 TSBs for the trunk was done and to tell them that everything in the car went off incl. the BUC. i was at the machine making a LATTE and a set of keys were placed next to me on the counter. looked up and my boy left the keys to a 2013 LS F Sport... he came back a couple of minutes later and said the plates are on. i just smiled and walked outside...

today i drove in manual mode and eco,comfy, normal,sport and sport+. manual, sport+ and normal are the best modes. it shifts like the GS but you do have 2 extra gears to play with (this car gets up). the brakes are very sensitive, and i do mean sensitive. i don't know what the hell they did but a tap is sufficient to really slow this car down. the ML is very good, sounds tighter in the GS. there are tracking dots on the Nav screen, i've seen it on the ES also, we don't have it on the GS. i enjoyed driving the car at 45mph... more than i did when i was driving at 60-70.

Syd, I didn't gather from your post that you bought the car. Did it in any way make you appreciate your GS more or are you still tempted? I know the F-Sport has a different set-up, but I've heard it is still a heavy car and doesn't compare to the driving experience with the GS (except much quieter). What did you think from your test drive?

Syd, they try to seduce you with the LS but you didn't fall for it.
From my point of view, the GS look more aggressive and fit for every driving. While the LS suit for retired people on vacation. And I know the reason why you didn't make the leaf: the all new '15 LS.

S,
I'm glad you stick with the GS. LS is nice but the b*tt doesn't do it for me. I was thrilled by the front and body especially when modified though. Maybe when the new body style comes.
