Probably the standard 19in tires on the F sport. But I've always wondered if the EPA ratings are for normal mode, eco mode, or an estimated combination of modes.

Because the EPA are bunch of tree-hugging idiots. Touch that group of dipsticks.

Default 2016 gs 350

All I can say is I am glad I got the '15. I like it all except the front end. That's not going to grow on me...

Its growing on me. I like the first pictures of the Luxury interior, that inlaid wood is sharp, I like the stitched airbag cover. Love the new brown interior.

Wheels have never been a Lexus strong suit. I don't hate them though. Better looking than the wheels on my old luxury model.

The 350 pictures look great. I think it's a nice update.
