Lexus will have to hurry with something else fun, like a RC350/300h convertible, otherwise I may move over to the dark side.

The GS-F and the 2016 facelift is just not it for me. Same with the current IS and LS.

While I traditionally haven't been big on GS cars - I do like this refresh. I haven't been following this very closely, though when will the GS-F be available at dealers?

the RC350/300h convertible will probably not look any better than the RC Coupe.

The million dollar question is... Will it be good enough to bring U back?

Looks like I won't be leasing another GS when my lease is up in a year.

Unless they have a new engine other than the 3.5L V6

Yes, you're correct! The 2013 -2015 GS F-Sport models look much better plus the F-Sport trim isn't shared with a lower tiered version like the 200t.

No, just my opinion but I don't lke the looks of the RC Coupe. I just think the S5 and 4 Series look more refined and less contrived.

It may be the SC replacement that brings me back (if they ever introduce it). I could be through two more leases before we see that car!

I'm hoping the LF-LC concept will be the new SC.

I understand your love for Audi. I just see too many Audi's (and wannabe S which are converted 1.8's) here in Europe. That's why I went for Lexus

Anyway, I still have two years of enjoying the GS, before my wife allows me to even look at another one. Also I still have to convince her I am not a big idiot for spending that much cash for modding a perfectly fine working vehicle....

This line of thinking doesn't make any sense to me.

The F Sport is in fact currently shared with a lower tiered version of the car, the GS350. The GS450h is the top tier of the GS line.

Will definitely have to look at this again in another light, hopefully the f-sport will look better.

I actually love Lexus as well. I traded a '13 GS F Sport for my S5. I kept it for almost 3 years, which is the longest I've kept a car in recent memory. The natural trade would have been an RC, but I just didn't like it. I love the GS. You made a great decision!

We already know what the 2016 F-sport will look like. Here's a pic from the previous page.

Little disappointed that the front bumper is so similar to the non F-sport...definitely can't distinguish the models (besides the color) as much as the current gen car.

I actually love the new GS, because the pictures are non f-sports and it looks super sporty and nice, and you still get the comfortable ride of a luxury model. Not like now that the base/luxury GS looks hideous and the F-sports doesn't give you a comfortable ride.

With the 2016 you get both!
