Default 2014 vs. 2015 GS350 F-Sport ... What Differences?

Hello kind and informative folks of Club Lexus-land.

Simple question ... aside from the F-Sport badge added on the trunk lid of the 2015 F-sport model over the 2014 F-Sport model ... are there any other engine/performance/exterior/interior differences between the two?

Only other things I can think of are that the 15 has the newer generation nav system (with HD traffic/weather) and Lexus Enform Remote is available. Mark Levinson added "Clari-Fi technology".

Also note Atomic Silver became available.

Thank you very much for the input. I figured the changes weren't astronomical ... but wanted to make sure.

A few things baffle me regarding a car that costs as much as the GS does and considering what the other cars in its class offer (that the GS doesn't).

For example the interior and exterior lighting is subpar ... why aren't LED reverse lights included? why aren't LED lights used for the sideview mirror lights (the light that illiuminate below the mirror)? There is no led lighting found around the door handles or underneath the car by/under door sills.

Anyone else agree?

I agree, there are a lot of things that the GS should have to justify the price. The lighting is actually quite dim compared to other cars in the places where LED does come standard, such as underneath the front seats and the footwells.
