I wish they put RC-F seats into GS with F Sport logo.

Not feeling the black either. Nothing like a clean GS.

Did they mean to say "crapped" line? Seriously though, they could have saved the paint and used it to black out the mid bumper. Black painted rims are already too much for the GS IMO. This combo like someone mentioned makes it look cheap. But I'm sure some will like it for the difference.

no thanks.

the exterior you can probably eventually get used to, but i don't like the seat color combo. would have been nicer if it was left all black or all Cabernet.

There is a black trim piece under the tail pipes, you can just see it on the side of the first picture. That ONE change looked good.I went to Lexus.com to look at the other crafted lines, didn't see anything that struck me as good.

The interior is cool to me but the exterior they could have painted the roof and fin black, left the door handles and the mirrors white also the wheels. I think it makes the car look funny.

Like the base/stripper model.

Might as well just do this.

I'm reminded of why I hate black wheels. You can't even see them. They might as well have the temporary spare wheels on them.

I also checked one not long ago and there seems to be options you can't even get on the car - it appeared to me as if you can only get the car one way. Whether I'm right about that or not, it just doesn't do it for me.

The black handles, mirrors, and wheels together looks so incredibly cheap!

So, really all I have to do is have the mirrors and door handles painted and the wheels changed to standard F Sport wheels to get a decent-looking car. Then, I can enjoy the really cool interior. No thanks.

Black wheels make it look like steelies, might as well put hubcaps on them. And the black mirrors and door handles make it look like my old 2000 base model 3-speed Corolla.
Amen! "Corollaizing a proud car IMO.

They are probably saving that for the GS-F most likely.
