I see i lot of 2013-2015 lexus gs for sale with what it says Premium Package, i was trying to looking it up, and cant find more information on it is that just a dealer trick ? i know theres pacages but i am new to this
For $1,400 (added to the Base model GS 350) the 'PM' Premium Package includes: Rain-Sensing Wipers, Heated and Ventilated Front Seats & Power Rear Sunshade.
Once a model package is added to the Base model it becomes identified as that model, e.g. 'Premium', 'Luxury', 'F Sport'.
Almost always the Premium Package will include some additional options. That said, almost always (with very rare exception) all 4GS models will have the 'NV' Navigation System ~$1,735.
In addition to the 'NV' Navigation System the Premium model will oftentimes include the following options:
'BD' Blind Spot Monitoring ~$500
'PA' Intuitive Park Assist ~$500
'FW' 18" Split 5-Spoke Superchrome Wheels ~$865
'Z2" Accy Pkg (Mat, Net, Wheel Locks, Bumper Applique) ~$318
In addition to the individual options noted above you will often find in cold climate locations the All-Wheel Drive version for ~$2,550 as well as the 'Cold Weather Package' for ~$440 which includes: Heated Steering Wheel, Heavy Duty Heater, Headlamp Washers & Water Repellant Front Door Glass
Note: Some Premium models might have the optional Mark Levinson Radio/Entertainment System, but I don't recall ever seeing one or ever hearing about one having it.
I think premium package is the base model in the US right? I have not seen anything less than premium package when I researched my car.
I have only 'heard' of a true Base model a couple of times and one of them did not include any options at all, including not having the Navigation System.
It's really hard to find a base model package in the US. When I was working at a dealership, a client requested us to order a base model GS. All the sales team and LTS/LDS where shocked when the vehicle arrived. lol.
