Question My GS, new member- 1st post

Upgraded the tires and wheels, installed a stereo, wrapped some parts of the car. Want to add an exhaust and body kit but seriously considering splurging on the GS F so holding off for now. What do you guys think?

Congrats on your vehicle sir! You're amongst a select few of us 4GS hybrid owners on CL. I sent you a friend request on here

Your car is very nicely optioned.. looks like you pretty much got it all! I was looking for several months for one that was in the exact color that I wanted with all the options that mattered to me.

Is yours a 2013 or a 2014? Brand new or slightly used?

Hope you enjoy it my friend. I've thoroughly enjoyed driving mine since I bought it. Be safe too! When the battery is full charged, it dished out a crazy amount of torque off the line, lol.

Hi all, I had a thread going in the general forum but seeing as I finally picked up the car, I wanted to post something here:


1. 2015 GS350 F-Sport
2. Nebula Grey / Cabernet
3. NAV / Mark Levinson / BSM / IPA
4. RWD
5. No
6. Leased, so probably just tint
7. Keeping my 2014 ATS 2.0 6MT (Still sad to see it go)

Hi Everyone!
Just took delivery of a 2013 CPO GS350. I was driving a MB ML350 for a few years and wanted to get back into a sports sedan. I also considered the Infiniti Q70 but the seats are very uncomfortable for me. Love this car! Ride, handling, features and performance are all great. Here is pic after getting detailed and wax job this morning.

Here are details of my car:
Luxury Package RWD
Blnd Spot Monitor
Mark Levinson Sound
Parking Sensor
Chrome Wheels
Nebula Grey with light grey interior

Modifications:
LED trunk light
LED fog lights (bulbs)

Wheels look cool, are they 22" ? and I think the exhaust is a must do.
You could add something to the car, it will always make it look better. I sometimes wish I got the GS F but did not have the color combo I was looking for, think I will add front lip on mine.
The car is looking good, keep it up.

I bought a 2015 Deep sea mica GS F-sport last month with 2,000 miles & salvage/rebuilt title.
Selling my 2007 IS350 Black sapphire pearl that I bought new & joined Club Lexus in 2008.
No pics yet because it's been so hot outside. Salvage title voids the factory warranty, but I never needed the warranty on my IS350 & the GSF has the same engine.
My IS350 is in classified section.

Default 2013 gs 350

Just picked this up on Thursday the 17th of Sept, what an upgrade!

1. GS 350 Premium Edition
2. Color exterior: Deep Sea Mica (Blue) / Interior: Light Gray
3. Navigation but no Mark Levinson
4. AWD
5. No DRS
6. No planned mods at this time
7. I was considering a BMW 328i with xDrive, Audi A5, Mercedes CLA 250/C300 and a Cadillac ATS/CTS. I had a 2009 ES 350 I replaced, loved the car but was missing that sporty feeling.

It's a 2013, so it's 3 years old. Looks like it was a lease return (like most of these GSh's are). Had 29k miles before the 1200 mile drive home from San Fran to Denver. I was looking for this car since May. I really wanted all of the options so it was really hard to find as I was only interested in Gray or Silver.
Getting the PhotoSync tint and Xpel clear bra stuff installed this week! (following in your footsteps)

Nice to meet everyone! My GS 350 AWD is a few months old and way too much fun to drive. I bought it over a 5 Series BMW because its aggressive, yet elegant styling really caught my attention. Personally, and of course Iʻm biased, I think itʻs the best looking sports sedan in the 55k-65k price range. Here are some before and after pictures of the tint. Nano Ceramic tint--this stuffʻs miraculous! Blocks IR radiation from sun and cuts heat transfer through all windows dramatically. 20% on sides and rear. 70% on front.

1. 2015 GS 350 F Sport
2. Obsidian/Cabernet
3. Nav & ML
4. AWD
5. No DRS
6. Dynamat all doors. Maybe drop and spacers later.

I've had my new GS for about a month now and I sit at home thinking of errands to run (my wife is loving this) and I sit at work and can't wait for the drive home.

1. GS Premium Package
2. Liquid Platinum/Light Gray
3. Nav/No ML
4. AWD
5. No DRS
6. Planning some light window tinting, nothing too dramatic.
7. I test drove the Audi A6, BMW 5, Infiniti Q50. This replaced my 03 GS (94,000 miles), which I gave to my 25-yr-old nephew.

Compared to many of the other GS's on this forum, my GS is pretty simple, but I LOVE this car. As for the other ones I tested, they were excellent as well and each had something somewhat better than the Lexus, but the GS brought the whole package together in a way that none of the others even came close to and none have the overall quality of the Lexus. One of my closest friends has a BMW 535 and we're always talking smack, but it's a 2013 with 54,000 miles and has been in the shop overnight three times. The repairs cost him nothing and he got a nice loaner each time, but that's not why you spend $50k+ for a car.

BTW, any of you ever been to the BMW forum and see the way they hate on Lexus? Wow!

Welcome Metsfan, I also have only had my GS for a short time and feel the same way as you. I alway's wanna take my car out as much as I can. I had a ES 350 that was cool to drive when I 1st got it but ended up missing that sporty feel that the GS gives me. Your car is pretty much the same as mine the Premium Package which is more then enough for me. Congrats on the car!
