I like how the GS350 F-Sport looks.

Kinja'd!!!

I can't put my finger on why, but I do.

Oh, and the interior.

Kinja'd!!!

Lovely.

Mostly because no tacked on screen and a clean dash design.

306 standard horsepower is pretty nifty also.

I agree with you fully. I have no idea why I'd want this car, but I do oh so badly!

+1 I'm historically a full blown Lexus hater but saw the G parked at a nearby show on the F Sport wheels. Looked good as shit, and guy had 2 of the Recaro baby seats in the back lol

I can't stand any Lexus really (especially the ESCamry), but this and the IS really pique my interest.

Lots of people like warthogs. The front is sort of endearing in a way that I don't feel about them all.

I like Lexus but i'm not interested in premium cars that still use slushboxes. DCT or Manual or go home for me.

Meh, it's technology that's been honed to work pretty flawlessly.

If it ain't broke...

Fun fact: Better than a new five series by a lot.

Sometimes I think a first gen CTS if better than the new 5-series.

It seems like no one really... likes it.

The only two F10s you're allowed to buy ever is an M5 decked out or a 550i M sport non-xDrive

The way I think is like if i'm going to be paying $40,000 for a luxury car I feel like I should be getting what I would get in a BMW or Mercedes.

I guess I can excuse it in a GS350 but an ISF at least should have it.

I don't like gear shifters in autos anymore.

Give me a dial or buttons. Get that shit out of my way.


Kinja'd!!! sm70- why not Duesenberg? > Logansteno: Bought a VW?

Good news: 306hp standard.

Bad news: 338hp maximum.

I love everything else about it though, although I prefer the non-F styling.

The ES is based on the Avalon. Get your facts right if you're gonna hate.

Also, it should be called the Ezzzzzzzzzzzzz.

I like them for the sole purpose that I rest my hand on top of them while driving.

I'd rather just rest my hand on the armrest.

The Avalon in on a stretched Camry platform I thought?

Needs moar GS-F.

I'm indifferent on which body kit looks better really. Maybe a little more towards F-Sport.

These are great cars. The F-Sport is wonderful to drive. Seats are superb.

Pretty much every BMW uses an 8-speed auto.

Mercedes use 7-speed autos.

You know what I meant. In cars like this your hand should fall naturally short of the shifter anyways. My mom has an A5

Kinja'd!!!

When I drive it my hand ends up right at the MMI controls. It's sublime . I love the ergonomics in that car.

To most people who don't track their car, thats more than enough. I am inclined to say it could use a V8, to match the looks, but.. guess you can't have it all. That 3.5 does sound lovely with the F-Sport Intake (available through the accessories catalog at your dealer)

It's a wonderful engine, and yes, in reality, 338hp is enough, but....I WANT MOAR POWER!!!
