Picked up a 2016 the other day and as a previous Lexus owner of four LS400's I'm used to the build quality but this car is something else entirely. Such a mature combination of everyday practicality paired with massive power when needed. The interior and gauge cluster really feel like you are in a race-inspired car and it feels amazing. The infotainment is not difficult when you figure it out and easily pairs with a phone which is what I use primarily. Cannot say enough great things about this car but you already know this. Funny to go back to the first page on this forum and hear all the complaining about the car. Seems like a typical Lexus in terms of reliability so there is an added piece of mind there as well. Car came ceramic coated with some carbon add-ons and I added lifetime oil and a 3 year warranty just because. I feel like I have a piece of history that will only appreciate in value. Car will be babied (no track) and garaged and driven sparingly but will be ran just enough to keep it fresh but could easily DD this thing forever as the ride is really smooth for a race car. Lexus is amazing and this is the car of my dreams and just smile and laugh every time I get in and start it up. Happy Driving y'all

Congrats on the new ride and I feel the same way! I haven't had time to introduce myself here yet, but that quote above is exactly how I feel too. I just laugh and smile every time I walk to my car, start it up, and drive it.

Congrats on your car. After a year of owning the car, best decision I've made... well, besides my old ISF. I do sometimes miss that car. It was rugged and in your face compared to the GSF.

Thanks! That's what I hear about the ISF. What I like is the maturity of this car; the wife can drive it a keep it on the road but can bust a** if needed. Sport + is too much fun though but never feels like it will get away from you.
