Best car I have ever owned. Despite the fact that mine misses couple extra features such as power folding mirror. but that doesn't change the way the car rides or looks from IS you will see differences in everything ..

Check the signature…no regrets…the GS is simply one of the best all around cars period and it feels and drives more expensive than it is. Contrarily while the IS is incredible it is clearly built to a lower price point.

The only regret now is the GS F is still not confirmed.

I also went from the IS to the GS. I really liked the exterior of the new IS, but once you sit in a GS you won't even think twice about moving from the IS to the GS.

I just got back from a road trop (LA to Phoenix). I tell you, the GS was awesome to drive on this trip. Much more comfortable then the IS. Absolutely no regrets here.

None. Dont feel inferior to any car in its class, the exterior design grows on me more and more every day. Great car

I went from a 2012 IS250 F sport to a 13 GS350 F sport and I got to say that I don't miss the IS250 at all, I love the GS350.

I have an 09 IS350 and last year picked up the GRL10 GS350. No regrets on the GS, it is much more comfortable and fun to drive, partly because the IS is a show car.

I did however recently get the chance to drive the new IS250 for two days while my IS350 was getting the gamgear LSB done.

The IS250 looks decent from the outside, feels like the car is faster then last gens IS250 (aggressive gearing, i was impressed) But the inside looked squished! The cabin appears to be narrow then the 2IS chassis. The inside reminded me of a cheaper squished together GS interior. Made me appreciate the little details i take for granted in the GS,....

I too agree. Sometimes I forget how nice the GS is until I bring it in for service and have to drive an IS or ES.

no regrets at all, best car i've owned. (evo, m3, mustang gt). 1 year into ownership of this car, and would still be my pick if i were to do it all over.
