Yep. The F model is F-sport. Without the F its a base model. Sorry if that created confusion but the F-sport is about performance more than comfort.
The major differences between the base and the F include some very specific tuning for the adaptive air suspension which lowered the car. Also, the wheels are 19" vs the 18" on the base model.
Be safe and happy motoring.

I can understand your feeling on that. When I get on the interstate, I turn off the lowering from the ASC, and the ride is smooth like riding on a cloud, very luxurious. Except for the harshness of my worn out Pirellis. But around town I lower the car down, and the ride is still quite good, better than expected. I'm betting your F-Sport ride was not even as good as my car lowered down. And yes, I would find that to be not worth it, and would want a smoother, more luxurious ride.
I'm hoping you check back in with us from time to time, to let us know how you're enjoying your new car.

The exterior and interior are black. I really can't tell you what the 2017 LS doesn't have that this one has. But I'm sure you could take my report which came from carfax and put it up against a 2017 LS carfax. That would be your best bet.

It's not clear from the spec sheet, but does this 2017 G90 have 360 surround camera, which was not available in the 2017LS. Also not sure about CarPlay and Android Auto. That would be another plus for the G90 if available.

it does have 360 cameras. Doesn’t have car play. Another item I’m looking forward to is front and rear wireless charging.

For the first time in 26 years, I no longer own a Lexus. Today, I made a seamless sale of my 2014 LS460 F Sport to Carvana. I'd only had the car about a year and a half, and as many of you know, I just wasn't a fan of the stiff and rather noisy ride. The good news is I actually got $500 more than I paid for it. So I feel very very lucky. My wife and I agreed that there is no rush to purchase another vehicle since I spend so much time at home which is where we both work. I'm certainly leaning toward a Genesis G90 and we'll see how that goes. If you ever plan on selling your car, go on the Carvana app or online and get a quote. They offered me $4,000 more than the other similar places. Cheers!

Just sold my Toyota to Carvana. Excellent experience. They gave me 25% more than the Lexus dealership offered me as a trade (Same with Mercedes dealership offer). They were honest, professional, punctual and paid me on the spot. Hardly looked at the car before they loaded it up, though admittedly it was in excellent shape. No more trading in for me ever again.
