What are some cars you guys are considering getting after the GS?

My lease is up in a year but it's never too late to start looking at other cars. Loved my 4GS F-Sport but I don't think I'll be getting another one. Have an RC F already so the GS F is out of the question.

I know that they're better vehicles outside of Lexus, but I'm so happy with my GS Fsport that I don't see driving anything else (at the moment). But if I were in the market for another car it would be the GS F.

I would be looking at the GSF or even the RCF. This time it has to be the blue one though! I even had thoughts of daily drive a GTR too but we will see how that goes! I even had a track edition for sale local too but thought of the maintenance it goes through!

That new KIA Stinger GT AWD looks very enticing.

If I were to replace it with another similar sized sedan, I would consider another GS, a Kia Stinger, or a Genesis G80.

However I often have thoughts of going back to a Tacoma 4x4. I really loved mine and the new ones are even nicer.

Next generation GS (probably released in 2019 or 2020 with LC/LS platform and TT V6), GSF (if performance is significantly better than upcoming TT V6), LC500 (CPO?), Audi S5 Sportback, or next generation Audi A7.

If I was to trade my GS in I would pick up a Range Rover Sport. I've been wanting one for a while now. Plus I would save close to $125 every 6 months in insurance over the GS too!

I wouldn't want the unreliability of the Range Rover brand.

I've owned two Land Rovers back in the 2000's, reliability was always an issue. And oil leaks!!

Here in Canada there are some massive discounts on new RC-F and GS-F's ($70k brand new). So if those discounts persist until my Mercedes lease ends I'll most likely get one of those.

My neighbor had to get a new transmission in her Range Rover with less than 5K miles on the ODO. A old coworker's Range Rover was in for repairs every two months like clockwork.

I like the way they look but would never buy one after seeing those experiences.

Family member has a Range Rover LR4 Luxury. They have put about 25k miles on it, and love it. The only problem they've had was the 2nd battery needed to be replaced on warranty. It drives and rides nice...

Check out Doug DeMuro's video about his Range Rover - pretty funny, as long as you have a warranty!

Dude, I just bought my first GS350 F sport this past November, cut me some slack!!!

But seriously, Hyundai 2017 Genesis is no joke:
