I agree, as much as I like the GS, I will not be a Lexus fanboy and make excuses for why a $50K+ car needs 10 pounds of felt tapes and a dash lube job every 5000 miles to keep it from squeaking and rattling.

Last year I took the car in for something and mentioned the styrofoam on styrofoam creaking in the center console. Got the car back with this issue fixed. Now I'm getting the dash on windshield (thinking of the right word as clicks is not exactly right) rattle (not better). And I'm amazed at the fact that when I think it's on the passenger side, it moves to the driver side.
Very surprised for this car. Love it but this is crap.

I 've owned quite a few European cars, this is my first Lexus. I'm very happy with the GS, no complaints at all.
