Larger Trunk ???
I have an 08 GS350 which has a 12.7 cubic foot trunk.
I was looking at the Lexus web site for the 2010 and it says the trunk is now 15.2 cubic feet for GS350 & GS460 (10.3 on GS450H hybrid due to battery).
A 2.5 cubic foot increase is a SIGNIFICANT change
!!!
Does anyone know if this is for real and how it was achieved?
Don't think I would trade my 1.5 year old car with under 15K miles, but the small trunk is my only complaint with the car !!!
Thanks.

wow really? if so i definitely need to check out the 2010 and see why it has the "gained" space considering that the car is still the same. i have always said that the 3gs has a relatively silly trunk
the tuner is very small, it shouldn't gain you much space (if they do indeed relocate the tuner). 2 cub ft is quite a bit of space, i wonder

most likely Lexus had made some adjustments to the shape and size of the panels in the trunk to allow for a bit more room. The GS has a tiny trunk. It needs all of the help it can get

i wonder if they just tweaked the inner trunk lining to make it bigger.. i know there is a bunch of room behind the lining especially near the strut areas and the upper lining could be a lot more flush with the deck..

the GS now has more trunk space than the ES. haha
i wonder if this is a print error.
if anyone here is going in for service, please take a picture of the trunk.
