The information that I have now about the 2012 Lexus GS is that all model badging and engine combinations will remain the same, with the exception of an added 4.6L AWD model.

The 2012 Lexus GS will debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show in December 2010.

460 AWD, thats interesting... I think Lexus is again making the same mistake it did with 2006 GS300 / GS430 engines.

Hmm now looking at that chart again, the 4.6L FWD is probably wrong? Should be RWD instead.

if they are going to use the same motor as they currently have I am assuming it will be tuned to produce more power.... I hope so.
