Imo.. The rims are too big for a 2gs w/o using any spoilers. And moving the badge lexus gs400 to lower part of the trunk makes it looks even worse. Seeing the interior, that leather skin is so not my type. And that bluish panel on dash n door trims makes it even worse. Looking at the last pic, cheap paaint on air filter box, air intake, etc make it a perfect gs don't 2010. If all gs are like this, i would not even want to see lexus gs. That car is a total disaster.
