In case you haven't seen it, here's the product info sheet for the '16 GS450h:

Exterior colors (10): Eminent White Pearl, Liquid Platinum, Nebula Gray Pearl, Obsidian, Matador Red Mica,
Nightfall Mica, Atomic Silver, Caviar and exclusive to F SPORT Ultra White, Ultrasonic Blue Mica 2.0

Also F-Sport says striated aluminum trim (like normal) but also Naguri aluminum trim?
Appears the Luxury package is gone. Say goodbye to 18-way power front seats
. Standard is 10-way and optional 16-way on F-SportTyped in 'Bamboo' and it didn't appear. Did they do away with the bamboo wood trim option?!
I actually wouldn't mind it as an option. Eco friendly and wears nicely over time. Very few can tell the difference. Lexus NuLuxe feels more supple than BMW leatherette or MBTex imho

The 2GR-FKS seems to be the same as the FSE, but with the ability to use the Atkinson cycle. Note that the new Tacoma is also using the 2GR-FKS.
As for weight, I cannot explain that. Especially since the IS200t weights less than the IS350. Something doesn't add up. I'm missing a piece of the puzzle.
They've also noted a 1.4 inch increase in length, no doubt due to the new front end, but also an additional .5 inch of rear legroom and 2.1 cu ft of additional trunk space.

It's inevitable that Lexus will share engines with Toyota, but usually at a later time. Since they are implementing it so early, maybe this indicates that a force-induction version of this engine is coming soon exclusive to Lexus...one can only hope.

When the Gen 4 came out I knew exactly that was my dream car, especially the FSport version and now I'm driving one. I don't have the same feeling about the Gen 4.5. Now the more I look at it the more I like my Gen 4 better.
3 more HP is a joke. I can slap one more FSport badge on the roof and say it adds 5 HP and nobody will know.

Yup, that is definitely the new FSport. The wheels look like those in the IS FSport. The wing is a giveaway too cause only FSport comes with a wing.
However it still looks cheap and not classy like the ours. Not looking good here.
