Default LA Auto Show pics of 4GS

Here are some random shots I took earlier at the L.A. Auto Show via the link below using my (not so) smart phone. Included you will find a picture of a little known baby brother (from a different mother) of the 4GS (resemblance is obvious).

I will say the car looks better then photos I've previously seen. Even its nose is growing on me. I was especially impressed with the exterior materials used (the grill on the GS-F was of sturdy construction. Can't say the same of the GS). Interior monitor seems too big - layout similar to a 5 or 7 series BMW).

The greyish silver looks pretty good.

Thanks for the pictures. I was at the L.A. Auto show Friday, Nov, 18th and got a chance to sit inside the F-Sport GS and there was an asian female Lexus representative who was so cautious and didn't want us to touch anything because it was a prototype. I was thinking in my head that she needed to chill because she was getting annoying...

Sorry for getting back to you so late.

As far as seeing the 4GS in real life I have to say I like it alot. At first it does have a strong resemblence to the CT and almost got confused. Also the rear door handles have the little touch groove you can lightly press to lock the doors just like on the 2011 models. Overall the lines work real well and I hope the next generation is a big hit.

As for the interior the leather had a different texture, not your typical glove soft Lexus leather. More like corinthian leather which reminded me of my brother's 2012 Audi A7 leather. It's more thicker and coarse. Since it was a prototype the center armrest cover did come off and I had to put it back and that was when the female Lexus representative started getting antsy. I did like the dash especially with the bigger navigation screen. I wanted to sit in it longer but decided to get out to make the female Lexus representative chill.

Anyway here are a few pictures of the 2013 GS. Enjoy.
