m5 is reaching for 110k already. i don't see a competitive gsf for less than 80k. and even say 85k and if it has a v10, gosh i am in love. but 2017, that's a long time from now.

 

hmmm the last time I checked, the IS-F and M3 showed identical numbers. The IS-F however wins in MPG.

 

Can anyone of you "insiders" give some news on this thing? I need some specualtion to fuel the fire.

 

Lexus has filed for a trademark on the name "GS F".

Thats old news... What's new?

 

Honestly I have no updates to share. Been quiet.

What I will say is I'm still shopping around and I didn't realize how much of a value the M5 is. 90k base MSRP but there is serious discounting so you can get loaded ones for around that price. Very attractive even if reviews have been lukewarm, the car looks fantastic modded.

With the yen finally giving Japanese companies some breathing room that bodes well for a better priced GS-F but again don't expect a 550hp car at all.

Lexus and Toyota should be back with turbo engines but I hear they will initially be smaller engines. Also will Toyota let the ecu be able to be hacked. Today you can't.

 

just sayin' we still waiting

 

Best Car magazine spotted another GS-F test mule in Japan...

NICE!!! I am excited again!

 

Dang that is sexy! Can't wait

 

Meh, only 465? I was hoping for at least 500.

 

The Lexus Enthusiast has been in Japan so surely he knows more now great guy and great site.

Exciting. I would think the LED lights were standard...

 

Great to see the GS-F is close!!!

Fenders are nice but i HATE the tacked on CF bits.......looks cheap imo.

Hope the production car has full bumper replacements!

 

Found the replacement for my '08 GS460, it's about time the 4GS finally got a V8.

 

love it
