We don't get the F-Sport 450h here in the US =(

Hopefully it'll come in the next few years...

 

Another moronic decision by Lexus. Selling the fully loaded models to people who are not price sensitive is the way they can make the most money, and yet they routinely don't allocate and spec their models to have fully loaded cars available to buy without a custom order, or in this case, at all.

 

Anyone have new news? It's almost here



Did you drive it back to back with the standard GS350? How would you compare them?

 

Lexus brought a pre-production GS 450h to the meet I organized this past weekend. I'll share thoughts and a couple pics soon.

 

450h on the new gen would great. Great looks, performance, and efficiency. Its the sports sedan of the future

 

I really want to know how it drives =)

 

Check motortrend.com, they loved how it drives, rated it overall better than M35h or Panamera Hybrid.

 

Yeah I saw that - I was just wondering how it compares to the gas-only GS or F Sport, etc.

I kinda have a feeling they will bring the GS450h F Sport over in the next year a so as they did with the Ct200h, but not sure if it's worth the upgrade for the hybrid.

 

Just waiting for my dealer to call me when it arrives. States they will receive one at first and take orders for future incoming vehicles. States with the options the first one will have will most likely list at 64 to 65 thousand.

 

I've got a reservation on one. Only one available, but its nicely equipped with the pre-collision system, Mark Levinson audio, and of course the navigation system. No lux package, so no alternative LED headlights or wood-accented steering wheel. Black interior and black exterior; so if any of you think you saw a UFO, I can assure you it was a weather balloon.

 

I have a GS450h f sport on order, should be delivered in June but still waiting for a official date, went to see one in the flesh last week and must admit I was a little disappointed with the rear with no tail pipes, I could perhaps understand the decision to hide them on the premier and luxury but not on the f sport. Something less to clean I suppose.
To me the car is trying to be two different cars, from the front you have the aggressive stance, sports bumper, grill, f sport badges and from the rear more of a eco car,

 

I wish they offered F-Sport hybrids here. They barely offer hybrids here. My choices were... The black one. Or, wait and see in a few months what's next. Luckily, the black one looks like a really good one.

 

The car just seems to be a bit overpriced. I went to the Lexus site and fully loaded the cars is north of $70K.

The gas version GS seems like a better way to go.

 

Me too, southern region...59k or 4k or 10k package...70k loaded with luxury pack which includes LEDs...

Ouch

 

Got a call yesterday from dealership to expect a call when the GS 450h arrives, Ive still been debating whether to get it or not, so I guess the test drive will seal the deal for me.
