My dealer says "no info" on first 2016 arrival date???

Anyone have better info than "maybe November"??

You would think it would not be that much of a secret as the '16s must be "in transit" somewhere?

Pretty good deals on the '15s but I kind of want to see a '16...pictures look like it could "date" the '15 and earlier models with its' bold new front end???? Even my wife said as we were walking the lot...you sure can pick out those with the "separation" piece in the grill...ie; the color/painted cross piece on the '15s.

I think that is the same on the '15/'16 ES 350s???

Info on '16 GS arrival date or thoughts on impact of new '16 GS grill...Thanks...TomMartin

"Maybe November" is exactly what I heard from my dealer last week.

Most of the literature online is very vague and says "late this year" but it seems like they are trying to be vague on purpose to either build some anticipation around the refresh or to unload the inventory of 15's as much as possible.

I can imagine if the 2016 refresh came out in now or "early fall," not too many folks would go for the leftover 15s after seeing the possibility of their car looking "dated" as soon as they drive off the lot.

I spoke with Lexus Corporation and the 2016 GS arrives officially at dealers December 2, 2015. The options, etc should be out early November 2015. The 2016 ES are already out and in the dealerships. They did a great job on the changes in the ES.

Thanks JAM...kind of a late introduction?

I agree that the 2016 ES has some nice changes. When I first saw the pictures I was not sure I liked the front end but when I saw it in person I liked the from end as well as the interior. Have not driven sl no idea if the ride or other driving "feel" has changed. Would not mind a bit more firm handling.

I will watch online for 2016 GS 350 updates as we move forward....Thanks TomMartin

It's already available for VIP customers.
I have one in my garage right now as we speak.

XRYD3Rx - Cool. Lets see some pictures of your 2016

I can't disclose the picture. I will in November.

I spoke to a salesman at a local Lexus dealer and he confirmed the GS should arrive in two months, early December. He didn't have any inventory info, yet. Curious to know what option packages will be on the first arrivals.

I hear you KennethGS...Specifically I like the look of the new wheel options available. I always felt the standard wheel options for the 4GS were ok at best. I like the look of the five spoke wheel on the refreshed '16 GS and might consider them for my '13:

Happen to know what size those wheels are? 19"? I like them too.. I would consider them for my '13 as well..

Makes a lot of sense huh?

Just being sarcastic guys, but looking forward to trading in my 15GS for the 16GS

You will be seeing the new GS in store about the same time you will see the new RX. Both of them are in holding patterns because dealers are currently loaded to the gills with their 15 models and people are anticipating the major changes to the 16's.

If you're in the market for a 15 GS or RX, pull the trigger. You can easily get 1-2k below invoice on these cars right now.
