According to the Mayans, the worlds supposed to end in 2012. lol

But if all goes well and the gs-f is released, would it be competitive with the current market? I can only imagine that the 2012 cts-v ill be over 600hp

Nope, but there was a GS concept built by Five Axis. And no it's not a GS F.

The suspension is easy to fix. The steering would be tough to change but I wouldn't want to anyway. Just the handling.
WHy not swap with the ISF motor. Someone with big bucks should do it.

IMHO, 417 hp aint gonna do it. It'll still be slower than the IS-F. It's going to have to pump close to 500hp like the E63 to have a snow ***** chance . . .

A GS sized coupe would get me high as a kite. I'd be so high I would need hospitalization to come down.

Well how about the new IS350 C ? Maybe not quite ER, but it should get your pulse & BP up . . .

The new IS coupe is still small and doesn't look very attractive...at least not from the pictures. No, a GS coupe would make me pee in my pants. Pure sex...as some of you kids say.

2012 Lexus GS-F: Toyota to build a V-10-powered M5-fighter
Take the 500-plus-horsepower, Formula 1-inspired sub-5.0-liter V-10 slated for the 2010 Lexus LF-A supercar, drop it in the body of the all-new 2011 GS sedan, and what've you got? The 2012 Lexus GS-F. Watch out, BMW M5, Audi RS6, Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG, and 2009 Cadillac CTS-v!
