What do you guys think of the all new.....

[deven]

2013 Lexus GS350 F Sport?
Thinking about adding this to my stable. I am actually one of the few that likes the Darth Vader front facia/grill.
Test drove the car the other day and I was really impressed by it. For a Lexus it was quite sporty and the interior a blatant copy of BMW(as well as the tail lights)is on par with the BMW interiors. They got rid of the stiff cheap plastics and fit and finish is impeccable.

Anybody here either test driven one or have an opinion about it?

Thanks

I think too many cars are doing the darth vader look -sort of started by AUDI and Mitsubishi (2008 lancer)

It was cool at first but now they all do it -

By the way, I wish lexus would bring back a true manual tranny-
All this dual clutch - 8 -speed auto GARBAGE gets old - I don't care if it can shift .05 sec faster than I can, I want the third pedal!

Thank goodness BMW still gets it.

What??? Lexus (Toyota) copying a BMW?? Never!!! Lol

I like the new Lexus fascia. The outgoing one looked really bland.

It is a lot like my car's face. People will either love it or hate it. Very polarizing. I say BRAVO to Lexus for at least developing some character.

The real excitement for me comes from the curb weight! 3745 is actually quite trim when compared to many others in the segment.

It looks better in black for some reason.

Camry on steroids

 

[hattaresguy]

The interior is a BMW rip off.

One word. Beast.

I'm thinking of placing an order for a 13' GS450h, which is coming out this May. Need to sell my Audi A4 first though.

I like that quite a bit.

Its still a Toyota. At 60, I'm still much too young for such a car.

Holy cow - that view does look like a Camry -- with an aggressive front clip (Razzi kit) and Lexus badge.

 

[SteveSRT8]

Not even CLOSE to a Camry...it's RWD.

 

[cchase]

It isn't a Camry but it definitely has some Camry styling cues.

It is possible to develop FWD and RWD cars off the the same platform, albeit with some changes.

It looks like a Camry to me with a goofy front end.

I will ALWAYS BE "too young" for the refrigerators on wheels, such as the new octogenarians' fave ride, the Avalon!!!
