Hello everyone. I’ve been a longtime lurker here on the forums. For at least a year I have been interested in the 2019-2020 Lexus ES F Sport and was tracking prices and deals to get one. Some how I got sidetracked and fell in love with the GS F Sport AWD. While the technology isn't as good, the GS reigns supreme in else.

I almost pulled the trigger on a 2017 model, but hesitated and lost it. From there, prices were all over the place. Unfortunately due to Covid, inventory was low and prices were high. About a month ago for a hot minute, prices became decent again. So I caught a plane to pick up this beauty. It's a 2018 GS 350 F Sport AWD atomic silver with Rioja Red interior. I LOVE HER!!!! I drove 6 hours back after getting her and it was a great time and drive home.

Thank you for all the knowledge I learned before making this purchase. I hope to contribute to others as well!

Congrats, she is a beauty! People are buying cars like hotcakes now. My PPF guy is super busy.
The tech is lacking in 4GS but simply install GROM Vline2 and you'll have everything you'll ever want/need/
