Default GS Motor Question

Hello,
Would anyone be able to tell me the first model year the 4th Gen GS 350 had not direct and port injection?

Looking at a few used models for purchase and some V-Spec sheets list it and others do not.

Thank You!

It's had the dual injection system since 2007. Prior to that it was the GS300. All versions that are the GS350 have the dual system.

You're welcome.

Have you found a GS yet that you are interested in or are you just starting your search?

I've got a list of my top 5. Looking at 15-13 GS350s a couple are F Sport and the others are not but have less miles and the options I like. Is the F Sport package worth the additional $2-3k?

F Sport is just a personal choice. When I had my 15, F Sport was a must because personally, I found the appearance of the 13-15 without the F Sport package to be too tame for my own liking. I also really, really wanted the variable suspension (AVS).

I found the F Sport package on 16 and newer less important, style wise, as I think the refreshed ones look good with or without it, but I opted for the F Sport again to retain AVS, which I really love.
