FINALLY! Refresh 2016 GS pics
#361
I like the lighter aluminum trim in the earlier GSs, but from a practical standpoint it dents easily so I understand why they moved to the new aluminum. I suspected they would (although it is dull). I personally like the Cabernet better than Rioja Red, but I guess they need to amortize costs because it is now in the IS and NX as well. The GS was the only car in the lineup that offered Cabernet.

I'm not sure if making the red leather Rioja color was a cost move since the IS and NX are Nuluxe in the Rioja option. I wonder if the new RX will use Rioja leather or Nuluxe. Somebody at Lexus must've thought people wanted a more "sporty" look rather than "classy" look.

Yeah I don't know how I feel about the new aluminum pattern either. I know that I'm sad they replaced cabernet with the rioja red.
IMHO the F Sport with the F Sport gauges and the bright red seats is a little to boy racer for a $60k car. Even though my GS wasn't the F Sport, I could have seen myself in the F Sport. This interior however I couldn't see myself in.

The GS has a tiny windshield and a dashboard compared to other cars! I realized that after driving so many cars including my CT and tester RC. My old Camry had a huge dashboard and my Prius dash is even bigger. We sit closer to the windshield in the GS here.

You know it has a second hinge that you can adjust the angle/position of the mirror even more, right?

I just installed a dash cam with Lane Departure Warning System and Front Collision Warning System and I can't see it from my driver seat cause the mirror covers it.
I had all the wire tucked in nicely too.

As far as the second hinge, see what I mean? this is why i love this forum. Have to go back downstairs anyways to transfer that new Drake + Future Mixtape that just dropped so I might as well play with my rearview mirror to confirm
thanks!

Never noticed until this post. They put it in a better spot now. Who said Lexus does not listen to their customers' complaints? I notice they also made the view angle wider. We can actually see part of the license plate in the view now. This wider version really helps see stuff close to the tail.
