Why no GS reviews in mags?
Since becoming interested in the GS a few months ago, I've given special attention to all the auto magazines such as Road and Track, Car and Driver, and others looking for driving reports on the GS. Nothing.
In fact, one of the newest mags had an article -- something like "Best Luxury Sport Sedans" -- and nothing about the GS. I've actually seen nothing on ANY Lexus. What gives???? Do they have something against Lexus or did I just miss all the coverage earlier last year?
EDIT: The mags are falling all over themselves reviewing the new Chevy Malibu (wonder how much GM is paying them). Maybe there's no room for the new GS.

^ '08 was simply a refresh and not a major redesign. All the car rags reviewed the 3GS when it came out in Mar 2005. For some reason, when the GS350 & GS460 debuted, the rags decided that it was not worth the paper to review the new engine upgrades. No matter, C&D and MT are so enamored with Bmw that we already know who would win any sports car comparison . . .

I know it's not a mag (and Canadian), but they do have GS reviews for the 350, 350 AWD, and 450 H.
