Post Option Pricing and Pricing!

So was at the dealer as they called me in to show me pricing on the new GS 350, sad to say I wasted a trip as they know I want a 450h again, but hope this helps you all as I have not seen any pricing for options. (its a bad pic)

Thanks for posting. Do you know what the two columns, 9300 and 9306, are?

Also, the first item listed for both the Luxury Package (LL) and the F Sport Package (FK) is "Premium Pkg." Do you know if that means that the items in the Premium Package (PM) are also included in the LL and FK?

Too bad the Adaptive Variable Suspension (AVS) is not available with the F Sport package.

Thanks again,

AVS is available on F-sport models in Japan. I can't see why they would remove elsewhere.(???)

This is included it says "F-sport tuned suspension with AVS" (it better include it for that price.)

Yeah I was deeply saddened when he told me this, but I guess they think they will have more sales in the west coast, guessing cause of our winter weather.

Seems like the luxury features and the F-Sport features are mutually exclusive. This is a bad move. I remember this is one of the main complaints about the Infiniti M56 too.

If people are spending on the F-Sport package they may also want things like semi-aniline leather, passenger seat memory, rear sunshades, unique wood ornamentation, 18 way front seats, or at least a 16 way front passenger seat etc.

I don't think people buy the F-Sport to have all the "luxury" features or it will be clashing with the sports image of the F version.

If you guys pay close attention that 12% with F-Sport, indicates for AWD Models.. "FJ"

Which means this first wave of arrivals for "Eastern Region" will not see any RWD F-Sport Models.. which is listed under "FK"

(Thats what this document suggests )

Also, here are the other number definitions from that Lexus PDF Document.
  • 9300 = GS350 RWD

  • 9306 = GS350 AWD

I don't think you are right. When you look at BMWs most of the people paying for the premium nappa leather are the same ones paying for the M-Sport package.

I guess maybe the 350 caters to a more option conscious customer, and the 450h may have these luxury features as standard so you can combine with F-Sport.

interestingly enough, apparently 16 ways in F-Sport are better than 18 ways in Luxury :-)

In Singapore, the RWD F-Sports GS350 comes fully loaded with rear wheel steering, rear sunshades and Mark Levinson in addition to the standard F-sports goodies. But that was the tentative options list showed to me 2 month ago and he didn't have the pricing then.

Let me swing by the showrroom and see if he has any more updates.
