Not to pry but on '18's in desirable color schemes such as yours, does one pay MSRP or is there room for negotiation ?

Looking forward to your pics !
There's room for negotiation and prices are lower for 18s than they were for 17s by a few thousands. So, much better deals

Beautiful. I’d drive it straight to a ceramic installer and have a new car preservation package put on. XPEL is your friend (even if you only do the front half). Imho, it’s the most paint-saving device you can do to help mitigate front end paint degradation. The local installer here correct brand new paint to even better than showroom then grows all the goodies on.

Again, nice. Congrats.

Nice ride man I got a 2016 GS-F sport I also looked at the 2018. So whats the difference between the 17-16 model? they look the same inside and out.
My pic looks much better when you click on it

Nice! I love the black on the GS too... I was going to get the Caviar black with the red interior but when they found me this one I kinda couldn't pass on it and this was my wife's number one color choice too so I had to do it. I honestly don't know what is the difference or differences on the 2018s from the 2016-2017. From the 2015s and older I can tell there is a bunch of changes. Inside: the steering wheel, cluster, the seat design is a little bit different and feel softer and more confy now, the lights in the back is in the center instead of by the top of the doors on each side, the interior colors are different as well (at least the red), the rear view mirror. Exterior: headlights, tail lights, front bumper. Features: the whole entertaining system is different now, you get eco, normal, sport s, sport s+ and now the "customize" mode where you can select what you want to change.... and 5 more hp lol well I'm sure I'm missing other stuff too but I don't know of, I tried looking for the list of changes on the 2018 but I didn't find it

The only difference I've seen on the 2018 vs 2017 is that the Luxury Package is no longer offered and both Lexus Enform Service Connect and Safety Connect are now complimentary for 10 years instead of 1. Note that Enform Remote is still 1 year. There is a new optional 19" split five-spoke wheel. That's about it.

Can you still get the 18 way, semi-aniline seats in the GS350 like you could with the Lux package?
