GS F; FT-HT and XSE among Trademark Filings For Toyota Motor Corporation
#17
Pole Position
YEEEEEESSSSS!!!!!!!!
If a garden variety GS350 F-Sport can keep up with a BMW M5 in the slalom, BMW better pray Lexus screws up the GS-F or its going to look ugly for the M5 when the magazine comparison tests come out.

Doesn't stop the mags from comparing it against the M5 and E63, and beating those. http://www.caranddriver.com/comparis...omparison-test

Finally, they can fill the rest of the room in the MY13 GS350 engine bay... There is plenty of it..!!
I guessing a pumped up version of the 2UR-GSE / IS-F motor... Approx 450-460 BHP

IMO the V8 should have been offered in the GS at launch with ~400HP ... And GSF should be ~500hp. Lexus is very behind in engine choices compared to others. The 5 series has FOUR engine choices. 528, 535, 550, M5.

Glad to see confirmation of the GS-F, and now I will glad throw that in the face of one dunce(A Lexus troll-Thomas) who claimed it would never happen and it was mere speculation.

Right... Lexus needs to win the show. They need to bolster the "image" of a performance brand. Being down on HP to the M5 and E AMG won't help that. Lexus needs to turn heads with the GSF and make people take notice. It needs to beat the M5 at its own game and make people drool It needs to make people to WANT and ASPIRE to own it.

I don't argue that a V8 should have been initially offered at launch. Actually The 5-Series has 5 engine choices, the fifth being the ActiveHybrid 5.
