Thanks
I Will..
1 thing for sure is that our GS suspension takes the bump very well and very smooth, I enjoy driving it everyday. I live in Chicago and streets are terrible.
The 4th gen GS may drive better? Im on a 3rd gen 2011 GS350 AWD

Ill sum it up for you......

Co-worker bought a brand new RLX in Feb, & I just took delivery of my Brand new F-Sport (RWD) 3 weeks ago & all my co-worker can do is drool, ask me all types of questions & want to go out to lunch like never b4 (in my car ) every time i drive by he cant take his eyes off the car like its a supermodel in a bikini...

Value no comparison, Styling no comparison, Reliability good, but not comparable...

Good luck with which ever your choice you make my friend...

I know this is going to sound odd, but I seriously considered the new TLX when I bought my Audi A7 (I was coming out of a BMW 550). I did a short test drive of one and lived on the TLX forum for a few months. At the end of the day I think it is a great car for most folks and a great value. But I'm an over the top car nut and it came across as a bit plain.

If they had come out with a sport model with a little more pizzaz - like exhaust tips, floor shift (instead of push button) on the V6 and a little more of a sport appearance package I might have bought one. I still think it's a great car for the majority of people and to me it would be a great alternative to the GS or RLX unless they just tug at your emotions. Needless to say, the A7 tugged at my emotions big time.

Good luck. The nice thing is that there are no bad cars in this group, just mis-matches for what is important to you. BTW, I would tell anyone to seriously consider an Audi A6 in this price range. I'm pretty well blown away by how much I like my A7, and the A6 is basically the same car with a different body.

lol. The Acura looks like a Honda Accord from another planet.

I'm amused by those of you looking at the two pictures and acting like the GS is night and day better looking. To me they look like twins separated at birth except that one (the GS) has a front end that looks like it was not built to match the rest of the car.

Yep GS exterior is not that much of an excitement.
OP: what's the wait? It's already in your name. it's the best time to get a deal on 15 models now. RLX is nice but yes, 4GS is different. Looking forward to the pictures

hi thanks for sharing
1101GS
I'm looking at a used one a 2014 RLX or 2013-14 GS350
The RLX is kinda rare if u r looking for a used one bc it is not a popular vehicle.
I'm driving a 2011 Gs350 it has 49500 miles and still in mint condition I don't know if I should upgrade to the above vehicles or not

Here is my ride sitting on 20

To be honest, you're on a Lexus forum, people will be pro Lexus.

Go with what you like, cause no one here will be paying that car note.

If you like the RLX. Get it. Don't let others impede your perspective.

I still debate if I should've gotten a tlx or A6. But next time.

Good luck.

^^^ +1 Agree 100%

I've had RLX advance package, amazing sound, great roomy car but depreciation factor forced me to sell it and get GS. Also, I didn't like P-AWS system feeling on rear wheels for sure, like your butt dragging

What's Acura's best sound system? I wonder how it compares to our ML system.

Have you asked this on the RLX forum to get their feedback?

You had 2nd GS, 3rd gen GS, and unsure about the 4th gen GS?
You have to go out and test drive one and see for yourself

The advance package of the Acura RLX comes with KRELL audio system, it may sound better than ML audio system.

Thanks for sharing
Yes, I have posted on the Acura RLX forum asking for help.
I really like the Lexus quality especially the GS model but I have not test drive the 4th gen GS yet, I will def do that before making any decision.
Honestly I test drove the 2014 RLX even though its a FWD but I do like the way it drives and the interior is nice too, its also a roomy car.
The only thing I do not wanna go thru is the suspension issue on the RLX, the clunking noise I can hear drive on bumpy road, there is no fix for it right now. According to the Acura forum, Acura wont acknowledge there is a suspension issue with their RLX.
I feel like I need to do as much researching as possible before buying a used car. I have made a big mistake of not doing any research before I bought my 2014 Nissan Pathfinder which has CVT transmission issue that Nissan wont acknowledge it.

OP, once you drive the 4gs your answers will be clear. As others have mentioned the Rlx and Gs arent reallt in the same league.

Just don't forget about the pedal detent, that will unleash all the power.
