After 2 months... GS F Sport Platinum/Cabnernet is here!
Got her yesterday. Loving this car. Here are a few crappy pics from my Blackberry, but I think most of you get the drift.

Yes, Lextesy, Lexus tinted the windows. It was part of the deal before I even took delivery.
Spwolf, night and day difference between this car and the loaner. I can now take corners at my usual pace (which is scary) and not hear the tires squeal. The Sport +, the larger wheels and the low profile tires transform the car. Also, the interior looks like a totally different car with the cabernet and aluminum trim vs. the black leather and standard wood in the loaner. Also, the Premium Sound was great in the loaner but the Mark Levinson system in my GS F Sport is incredible.
One plus I wasn't expecting... I'm already getting 20 mpg in combined hwy/city with only 60 miles on the car. My Audi rarely made it to 19 mpg on the highway after it was broken in. I will have to honestly say I miss the way the Audi drove... the exhaust note, torque, feel, everything... but if I have to go with a larger, more practical car I can't think of any better than the GS350.

One more thing... there were lots of comments in the beginning about how the front of the car was aggressive and the rear of the car was dull and "Camyesque", but from most views of the rear with the sport valance and exhaust vents I think the car looks hot! I have no regrets about the styling of the F Sport. Lexus did a really nice job creating something aggressive and luxurious at the same time.

your car in Liquid Platinum / Cabarnet looks pretty awesome...i've not seen that color around here....do you have any more pics of it? I might ask the dealer to see if they can locate that color/combo for me.....but ML is very rare in the Northeast...I doubt i'd be able to get that here...Thanks a lot and good luck!
