Default And here it is!

  • 2017
  • GS 350 F Sport
  • RWD
  • Ultra White
  • Roja Red interior
  • Pretty much all possible options - Rear steering, triple-beam headlights, Mark Levinson, power trunk opener, HUD, LSD etc.
I'm really looking forward to it and I'll post photos as soon as I can.

I picked it up yesterday and I'm thrilled with how it looks, and with how it drives. Obviously there is much more to explore, but early signs are that this is going to be a deeply meaningful and committed relationship.

hey guys, I'm about to pull the trigger on an AWD 2016 GS350 F-Sport. I haven't owned a Lexus since my 04 IS300 which was many years ago.

Although I generally do many mods to my vehicles, I only plan on lowering this one a bit and adding a Lexon front lip. We'll see how long that lasts lol

Nice to meet everybody.
1st Lexus for us. Just picked up an L- Certified 2014 GS 350 last week. RWD, under 30k, lease return. Nav and pretty much everything else. Nebula Gray and black interior. Wife is thrilled with her "new" car (and those married for a while know how important that is....LOL). I'm having fun with it as well. Only thing she wants now is a spoiler on the tail. Gotta price that out.....

1. 2013 GS350 Luxury
2. Crimson Metalic, Flaxen - it took a while to find this combo w Luxury and ML
3. Nav + Mark Levinson
4. AWD
5. no DRS
6. iPhone mount, direct wiring, Tanabe springs, wheel spacers.
7. Replaced 2001 GS430 l-tuned s/s, considered LS460 but it was too big and squishy.

More pictures.

This is a fabulous car. My only gripe is the apparent lack of innovation in software and tight manufacturer controls. There are already capabilities available on newer models such as Siri Eyes Free that could absolutely be made available on this car as well with a simple software update. It really makes me believe we should decouple the onboard entertainment systems from the car manufacturers and yield to a common hardware platform that could be leveraged by Apple, Google, or an open source alternative to ensure that the onboard systems remain current as the cars age.

Theres a vendor on ebay I bought my carbon fiber spoiler from, came 2 days from the time I ordered from Thaiwan to Texas! They also have spoilers that are already painted. I think Lexus even sells OEM spoilers painted already. I'm happy with my carbon fiber fsport look.

Thanks for the info. I found a vendor on ebay that has new OEM color matching one for $299. Might be the same one you're talking about. Just need to check with the dealer and see what they'll charge to put it on. I'm sure I could do it myself by purchasing the template, but I would rather pay them and not worry about it......
