Default Exhaust?

I just bought a Lexus Gs350 2008 and now I am looking for an exhaust that's not to loud. I am looking for something like G37 sounds like. Something that sounds sporty

I agree - Tanabe Medallion Touring is somewhat similar to infinite sound. F-Sport exhaust is good.

Here is a video of the exhaust for an idea...

Tanabe is too quiet. Go with the Invidia setup.

Does an aftermarket exhaust (not the Lexus F sport) void the extended warranty? Of course, my dealer says yes, but it does not make sense and I do not want to spend over $1500 for the F-sport exhaust before installation.

It will/should only void the warranty for the Exhaust itself, won't affect the rest of the car.

you're set up would def wake up the neighborhood lol. Im curious about this tanabe + k&n cone filter intake. Sounds real nice and subtle inside the cabin, but you def can hear a growl. I wanna hear some rolling vids with a gopro or something
