I can't seem to open the link but I assume this is the old spy photo we've seen.

This is old, these photos are new and they are obviously the production GS-F...DRL and all.

Yes that's the same one that has been around for ages.

Just be patient people, January is just around the corner and we'll get to see the real GSF in its full glory.

You would need to buy the new bumper, new headlights and the drls. Not sure if grille comes with or without the bumper, most likely without.

Default Side by Side Comparison

Maybe I am just biased because I still have 600 miles on my 2015 F Sport, but I personally prefer the grill on the current generation body from what I am seeing..

I think for the car's larger size the nose is looking a bit pointy and the features kinda small, especially next to the massive new grill. The current styles features seem to really work together with the overall body lines beautifully in my opinion. Of course the spy photos are hard to judge fully.. and maybe I just need to get used to the new look still, they are both undoubtedly ultra SEXY machines!!

And I certainly wouldnt mind that juicy V-8, massive slotted brakes, the wheels are purely awesome, and those aggressive vented fenders lend some style to the side profile...

I just want that Ultrasonic Blue Mica 2.0 color like the one on the RCF. If they had that on the 2014 I woulda gotten that instead of my Liquid Platinum any day.

Yes but they don't offer it on the 2013-2015 FSport.

The GS F is looking hot. I always thought the GS looked kind of dated, mostly in the headlight area. This really brings it up to date with the NX and IS. Finally doesn't scream old money. Just hopefully the *** end won't be bland and blocky like it is now. The rear of my GS is my least favorite part. And with this modern front end on the refresh, I can only imagine how confused the styling is going to look if they don't do something good to the rear.

I like the new grille better--so much more aggressive. However, I wish the shape of the side vents retained the ones of the 4GS F sport (fog light housing area). The new headlights are sick, although I still wish that the DRLs were included in the housing instead of separate. Fender vents are typical for F, creating fender flares. I'm hoping for fender flares in the rear (wishful thinking). If those are the wheels, then bravo, Lexus! Finally an OEM wheel I like. As for the rear, most think it's bland-- I actually love it. The current rear diffuser with stacked quad exhaust is going to look mean. I predict a retractable rear wing ala RCF.
