Starting to think about changing my 2008 GS350 for a new one. I wanted it pretty much fully loaded.

But I am in no rush.

When will the 2015 model come out and is there is any speculation on what extra features it might have? I am most interested in safety features and electronic gadgetry.

Thanks!

Wait for '16 for the mid cycle refresh.

Not willing to wait a year.

There's no news but a good guess is that it will have the 2014 IS, CT and GX navigation system

It'll probably have the updated Remote Touch like in the new RC. I hope they'll also have an updated engine by then. Maybe a new forced-induction V6?

Can you tell me the highlights of the nav differences or even better point me to a place to look for the details?

What is a likely month this year for the 2015 to be available?

Late September/October.

Any chance the GS will have the midcycle refresh for 2015 MY???
Also hopefully the GS-F is finally introduced...

They need to do something fast to keep the GS relevant.

Then in 2016 bring in the new powertrains.

I searched but could find what is different in gen 8 nav on is vs gen 7 on GS and ls.

Where can I find it?

Cache Radio, 3D Mapping, HOME Button/Screen customizable for different displays, Subscription free live time traffic with predictive traffic and weather, One Shot voice entry for addresses among a few things

What is Cache Radio?

Within the next two years we should expect new engines.

You can pause, play and playback live radio for 15min at a time. It's like a DVR

A turbo future is certain. We know a new 2.0T will debut on the NX and manifest itself into the line-up. And we also know that a TTV6 and TTV8 are being developed but we don't know for what application. IS, GS, LS, RC are likely candidates though
