She still turns heads!
My GS F Sport is Liquid Platinum and bone stock except for tints. I do keep it shiny with Wolf's Hard Body.
I was going through a Chick Fil A drive through today that has floor-to-ceiling windows so you drive right by the people sitting inside. I was sitting in the line and my mother, who I'd picked up from surgery, said "every one of those people at that table are staring at your car." Sure enough, they all were!
I still think the best part of the car is the interior, but it made me feel good to have a car that I've owned for 27 months and people still look at it like it's new. I guess that's the advantage of owning something that isn't on every street corner like a 5 series or E Class. People talk about the car being "ugly" or "plain", but I think the design is smooth, subtle and muscular. Also, the fact that it's a blast to drive is icing on the cake.

I'm not sure most people really know what it is. Sure they know the Lexus badging but I don't think they realize its potential or that this car isn't your dads Lexus. I just got my 2014 GS AWD last Saturday and love the car. Liquid Platinum luxury version with Tech package and Nav with a ML . Pure stock and love the sleeper quality.

She sure does. I still enjoy looking at the car everytime I see one on the road. My son does tell me from time to time that he caught people checking out my car. I still think it's a hidden beauty. And yes, the interior is the best part and the driving experience is a big icing on the cake (for the money).

Funny story. I had my Lex parked in front of a hotel while I was checking in. A little boy and his dad was walking by. They stopped and started admiring my GS450h. The little boy told his dad he wanted to get my car when he grew up. The dad told him he would not be able to get a ford with the 'F' he got in Math. lol

I was in Washington, D.C. to check into a 5-star hotel when the hotel parking valet went nuts over my 4GS. He seemed to be most impressed with the color --Meteor Blue Mica. He stared open mouthed and said: "Wow! This is beautiful! And the color! My God, man, this thing is beautiful!"
Made me feel good for a moment.
