GS450h F

indeed there are F Sport Hybrid models young man... at one point they were only selling them in the UK and countries on that side of town... i am almost positive they are offered here now... i wanted one also, back in 2012, dealer said they were not available here at all. lost interest and bought an LS...

It is now offered here in the US. I almost guarantee you won't find a dealership with any in stock though. It's a low demand car, especially considering the price will crest $70k.

With the GS450h being so rare as it is, I doubt you'll ever see a GS450h F-Sport sitting on dealer lots.
They do indeed have it available for the NA market starting with MY2015, but it probably has to be custom ordered and delivered from Japan.
Would love for a GS450h F-Sport owner in North America to post up some pictures if they have one of these truly rare beasts.

Good eye about the Aston. They are beautiful cars. You should see what's behind the Lexus under the car cover....
Also redid all of the pillars and headliner in grey suede. Really makes the interior pop!

You might be one of the one people to have both the GS350 and the GS450h in the same household.
Do you like the hybrid?

Hey shurik! So you actually got that auctioned 450h back to working condition? What was wrong with it? I would have been terrified to get into the engine like you did, but you seem good with your hands.

Yes, I drive 350 F-sport and 450H is for my wife! Honestly, I like my 350 F-sport, I could feel tranny switching gears and car don't shut down itself I might sound weird but I drove manual since I was 12 years old, prefer real car feeling

For those wondering if there is a GS 450h F-type around. I remember a Lexus Review video on YouTube that got there hands on one in Orange County, from corporate.
On another note, I have a '13 GS 450h w Luxury package. The one thing that I really wish it had though, is the Dynamic Laser Cruise control. I know that there is another button on a section of the steering wheel trim, and the laser behind the front badge. Has anyone ever added that feature after the fact? I didn't know if the wiring harness and programming are already in the car.

Yes, the e-CVT and hybrid auto shut off to conserve fuel (and run on battery at lower speeds) is not for everybody!
With gas being relatively "cheap," these days.. hybrids are probably not selling as well as they were.
Thanks for the update. Really glad to see that you're close to getting the car back to working condition. Sucks that you had to replace the entire engine though - I am sure that must have not been cheap.
All the best,
