Heated steering wheel,rear heated seats,sun shades,rear arm rest control thing, auto trunk open and close, forged carbon option...
I mean these things come in the GS,which is cheaper than the GS-F,so,pardon me, how stupid do you have to be to say "they won't buy/want it". Give me that option to decide what I want my car to have, since Im paying for the car.
P.S.I know these options wont make any weather in the GS-F, but why not, right? If I have money and I want it then Ill buy it, that why its called an option.
Idk guys, but sometimes, it seems to me that people who represent car manufactures in the US are idiots.

Could it be because of pricing? They probably knew that the listed US MSRP was already pushing it and adding these features would increase the price to $90k++

Stupid for Lexus not to include these features on the US GSF but I think there has to be some logistic reasoning.

That's correct, this combo above is the only 2 tone we have available to us here.

I agree 100%
Prices in the US are amazing, prices here start at 100k, and we pay only 5% import tax on cars.
