Bi-LED headlights are standard. And so are LED turn signals.

I think the build tool on the website is still working out the bugs. I wish Lexus had a better built tool.
No, no. That was the math without F-Sport pckg. Base + Premium + Nav + wheels

Is it just me or did they not include the red seat option for the 200t F-sport?

@dchar, i think you're right about the build tool still has bugs.

The red seat is available on the 200t FSport. I just sat in one today. It looks damn nice.

My full 2015 LA Auto Show video is uploading so keep an eye out for it!

Well I figured it is offered since it's shown in photos, but the build feature on lexus' website, doesn't have the option.

I'm not sure this means anything, but carlocate.com lists all features, options and pricing (both MSRP and invoice) for the 2016 F Sport and shows the triple beam headlights with the safety system + ($1,795 MSRP, $1,651 invoice):

You LUCKY dog! I so badly wanted to go see ONE show this year. Missed them all even locally. Arggh.

Are the red seats Cabernet type? More orange or rust color?

The official Lexus website has updated the "Build Your Lexus" area with the 2016 models of the GS. So I would assume all options are now visible.

It's been up since last week but still missing a few things like Rioja Red for the F-Sport and no clarity on the tri-xenon lights. So basically just things that us OCD psychos would notice...

The Build tool is still very inaccurate, so take anything on it with a grain of salt. I wish Lexus would've worked out all the problems before releasing it. Some problems include no Rioja red interior option for F-sport models on any exterior color.

Lexus needs to make a better build tool. BMW and Audi build tools are way better than the Lexus one!

For those hoping for triple-L LED headlights, don't keep your hopes up. There's no mention of it anywhere on the GS page feature section or brochure. None of the GS200t/GS350 shown in the brochure have the premium headlights. Lexus seems to have gone the RC/RCF route of only offering it on the F models (to make them more exclusive?). We might see that option later on in other model years...or might have to wait for the complete refresh...

Agreed the build tool is hosed right now..!!

Bad news for the 2016 RC F - some started landing on the east coast this week..

The premium package that included the Triple Beam LED lamps.. Has now been downsized from $4,400 to $3,240

The Triple LED lights for the RC F are now a standalone option for $1,160

None of this is on the configurator... But this is how the cars are showing up this week..!!
