I will have to take 15 styling. I love '16 F-sport grill but like one poster said its too aggressive for the class of vehicle. The GSF can have that aggressive look and it can back it up with its performance. The GS350 hasn't had any significant performance boosts in years.

I like the 2015 better in photos, but oddly, in person today at the Lexus dealer....I preferred the 2016 just slightly and liked the interior more on the newer car as well.

I didn't really like the 2016 look when it first came out but I must say it has grown on me!!! I have a 2015; I like the look but prefer the 2016!

I agree but with a twist... I love my 15 GS F-Sport Styling, pics & all… When the 16s came out I definitely love the interior changes/upgrades but the front of the 16 GS still throws me a little... unless it's a GSF JMO

2015. I don't like the 16+ look. Too similar to the Toyota. I can't wait to see the next design of the GS though

I'd say at first I was more of a fan of the pre-refresh 4GS but the refresh has grown on me now haha. Now I have grown to like the more aggressive look (front end) of the 2016-... GS! Also love the wheel options for this version now as well.

I absolutely fell in love with the '15 style which is same as my car. I am simply not a fan of the predator grill and most of the other Lexus models have it as well. It is unique and turns heads. XD

2016 for sure. Spindle grill - you either love it or hate it...

I'm going with 2016 because I don't like the look of the center bar on the '15 I feel it interrupts the grill and takes a lot of styling away from the front. I'm sure that is more less what the designers were thinking when they changed it.

IMO, the new GS-F front end is phenomenal. The perfect balance of class and aggression.

Default I like '16+

I like the '16+ but the grill on F Sport little too much, also the new steering wheel feel cheep.

I had a '13 F Sport, and it is gone so my opinion is not based on owning the car. I think the '15 looks better. The styling is "tighter", if that makes sense. I know the new styling is meant to update the car, but the new front end looks glued on and I don't like the overwrought taillights on the '16 at all. Lexus wanted to make the latest model look more aggressive, and yet somehow it blends in more IMO.
