Default 2011 GS up on Lexus.com now...

They don't normally load the new model year for the GS first, so hopefully that means they will be releasing the 2012 early next year.

No special edition for the last MY for 3GS?! Or maybe they're prepping for the regular MY11 now and then a few months down the road, a special edition, then 4GS for 2012.

Hmm, on the Lexus Canada website only the 2011 GS 450h and GS 350 AWD are available. No GS 350 RWD or GS 460 RWD.

5 exterior colors for the 450....that's terrible, although that black/purple color is sick...

also great to see they still haven't updated the F-Sport accessories with, at least, new wheels.

it's like they just gave up.

4 years, and no changes to exterior


that satin cashmere metallic color looks interesting

I look forward to seeing the next gen GS. For me, it will have to go some to better the GS's current beautiful styling.

No charge Navigation or ML for 2011 apparently. What's weird was that when I tried to build one for my area, you get to pick either option package A or B, and A includes Nav with no ML, whereas B includes ML with no Nav....

Not that I'm looking to get one (just sold ours two months ago), but curious nonetheless...

Is it just me....or does the latest GS look less curvy than the 06-09 models?
To me they look less stylish and more boxy.
Maybe its just my imagination.

2011 Lexus GS
Any obvious differences between 2010 and 2011? (Other than it costs almost a grand more..)

navigation and Mark Levinson are standard now. however, it'll cost you 1,500 for the backup camera.
