Thanks to my good friend Peyton, I was given the opportunity to go out for a spin in his GS350 F sport. The power felt amazing but the Vehicles handling shocked me! For a mid-sized sedan, this thing handled incredibly well. It breaks my heart Lexus has killed this car from their lineup.
Louis I love you
I have a 2013, mine is the luxury trim, fully loaded. The luxury has everything from the F-sport minus appearance package, which i added, and brakes. I purchased the car with roughly 170k miles on it as I knew I would be driving a lot. The car now has 225k miles and there is not a bit of wear on any part, zero repairs or replacements. The build and ride quality seem miles better than newer german cars I've driven. I can put the car in sport+ and it does everything I need to, even at 10 years old and 225k.
Did the transmission fluid ever get replaced or is still the same fluid from 2013? I've been conflicted on wether or not I should bother with it because the dealership says its a lifetime fluid in a sealed transmission that shouldn't be messed with but some people on the Club Lexus forums say you should do it and the liftime fluid claim is bs.
@RJtheREBEL21 just get it changed its about 2-300
What’s different with brakes?
Bet I could find some shredded control arm bushings at that mileage lol
All GS owners should be pleased that their GS is built in Japan
This car is crazy man, I had it for 4 years put down 70k miles and god damn this car still drives like the first day I got out the dealership man. Had benz and other Lexus, but GS is the BEST car I owned❤
I bought the 2020 version, the last year made, my retirement car. Wanted a luxury car that would last forever and not break the bank like the german and Italian brands. I'm 63, it'll be in my driveway when I die, just change fluids and you're good
Own a "06 GS300 over 165,000 worry free miles. Just bought a '17 GS350F Sport w/71,000 miles. Both amazing cars. You can't go wrong with Lexus.
I miss and enjoyed my 2014 GS 350 F-Sport but I enjoy my 2017 GSF even more! Can’t go wrong with either one!
Have an 18’ 350 f sport and am amazed every single time I drive it. My favorite is being in sport plus mode and down shifting to 3rd gear and just pulling away from cars. It’s like a rocket appears 😂 just took her on a 320 mile road trip and averaged 29mpg all while using the occasional sport burst. A beast of a car!!
In 2018, I got the 2014 GS350 F-Sport in Obsidian black and peanut butter interior as my first car. I'm blessed to still have my chariot
this is my dream car
Update: just got this car a couple months ago and i love it !!
Fun video guys! My Borla axle back exhaust for my 2015 GS350 F Sport arrived today. I'm going to tell the install guy I have a problem with my exhaust, start the car and say it's too quiet. Then show him the Borlas in the trunk.
Do a resonator delete on those and thank me later!
I have a 2006 lexus gs300 absolutely best car i have ever owned even with the 200k miles it already has on it.
The front grill design of this car looks much better than the latest front grill design.
Lexus hit different ✅
I have a 2014 GS450H ,65k miles with Luxury Package and it's a sleeper with V8 power and V6 full economy.
This specific engine within the GS 350 is the 2GR-FSE engine 3.5L V6. This engine can be found in the GS, IS, and RC as you already mentioned.
The RX, ES, Camry, Avalon, Rav4, and Sienna all use the 2GR-FE 3.5L V6 engine. The 5VZ-FE 3.4 V6 engine is old school (1995-2004) and the current Gen 1GR-FE 4.0 V6 engine is used in the 4Runner, Tacoma, Tundra, FJ Cruiser, and Land Cruiser (not in the US).
All different engines.
I miss my 2013 GS 350😞
So informative thank you man❕
The newer Highlander, Camry, Sienna, RX, IS, GS, RC, Tacoma, Avalon all use the 2GR-FKS now. All tuned differently of course with the Lexus sedans having the higher output of 311hp. Tacoma has the lowest output of 278hp.
This car sounds amazing. The back roads seem a little busy though. Ive been looking at the 2013 AWD GS for a week now and this helped me decide on it.
I just got a 2015 GS 350 F Sport RWD and I Absolutely Love It! 76k miles just waking up in the morning looking at her brings me joy and happiness! This car is pure luxury!
2015 legus gs f sport:
A/c actuator and fuel pump replaced under warranty.
Sun roof seal replaced.
Maintenance replacement:
Engine, brake and rear differential fulid, Spark plugs, brakes and rotors, batreries, gas-cap (fume),
Fuel consumption can be a pain with high gas price.
Overall solid built machine.
I didn't watch the entire video but have owned my '18 for over 3 years. These cars are fantastic. I have only 3 criticisms. The infotainment was dated in 2013, let alone 2020 (when the series ended in the US). Adding carplay is possible, but you still need to use the puck which is less than optimal. The cup holder blocks the seat controls (which are auto, so I never adjust them). Finally, the rear seat room is smaller than expected. I am 6'2" and my kids dont have a lot of wiggle room.
I put around 20k on my car a year. It is STILL just as tight and performant as it was when I purchased it.
I have a white on red 2016 GS350 F-Sport RWD that I bought four years ago & has been absolutely amazing! Easily the best car I've owned so far & I would for sure buy another one!
I almost bought one on Thursday. Had a hard time letting go of my 2016 volvo turbocharged 6 cylinder wagon. The wagon is also a rare car, but not as sought after as these due to Lexus reliability. Apparently the guy who was going to buy it couldn’t get the financing and they called me back this morning. Thinking maybe I should take it. The wagon is sweet though…
I'm a very happy owner of a 2017 GS350 AWD. Living in Winnipeg, the AWD version is a good alternative.
Same as yours with 88,000km and still loving it 😊
The equivalent generation E class and A6 doesn't even come near to the GRL10 with the 2GR-FSE in terms of reliability AND build quality.... The BMW F10 535i is close if you don't mind the CEL lighting up every now and then :P
Loves my 2013 GS350 to bits. Just put fuel and drive!
Coming to my 2013 GS 350 AWD F Sport from a 2012 A6 Prestige and 2010 535i xDrive 6MT that statement is mostly true lol. The GS is definitely more cramped than the A6 and 535i unfortunately 😪 The build quality is definitely up there, if not more simplistic/basic which is what they’ve always perfected. Overall I’m just happily looking forward to having a worry free luxury vehicle ownership experience for once lol.
The w212 E class is definitely superior
@@laithellabban If it’s not the AMG, you’re just buying it for the name lol.
I have a 14 gs350 awd fsport, the best sedan I've ever driven, they're are those that edge it out in one particular aspect but none that match its overall quality
I have a 15 GS obsidian flaxen, 21 IS atomic/flare red, 21 RX Nori Green/Birch. The IS handles the best, the GS trans is tuned more fun and rides smoother since it’s a little higher up, and the RX is my daily soccer mom driver. I love all of them so much ❤ I will be buying an LC500 convertible next
Such a beautiful vehicle. Im planning on getting 1 very soon. Will last many years when its taken great care of easy, simple reliable as Toyota
I love the one with the peanut butter color interior. I might pick one of these up soon.
I have the 2018 RWD F Sport Ultra White with the Flaxen interior
Slowly becoming a lexus channel 😏
Got a few more Lexus videos in the works haha I figured I’d knock all of them out first
Only thing you might’ve missed is the heads up display! Can change the settings to see RPMs, fuel economy, or solely MPH.
I wanna grab one of these with an 8 speed so badly if I can’t find a gsf. Love my 2018 rx
Was my dream car back in 2017 but was not making enough so had to get a 2011 GS which has been extremely reliable, luckily mom wants to buy it so I’m getting myself one of these 😁😎
That is an insane spec, looks great with all the creature comforts you need and the sportiness to boot
Limited slip differentials were optional on GS 350 F-Sports. Rear wheel steering was also optional.
Good to know thanks 🙏🏻
The base model gs350 does come with the brown interior. I believe it comes with the white exterior
I have seen it with the black exterior as well.
really impressive review, subbed for more. I own this car its great
Awesome, thank you!
Interesting fact, the lotus evora uses the Toyota 3.5, but it's supercharged. I'm wondering if you can buy that supercharger for a Lexus
Great car, I test drove my neighbors because they might sell. Was shocked that a full tank of gas gets you 295 of range.. pretty bad on gas and it takes 91.
Get a Camry of premium 93/91 gas is your concern
tell peyton he did well with the exhaust man
Will do !
Undervalued ? They’re still 20k with 80,000 miles and 12 years old !! lol . Anyways just bought one
Still worth it imo.
Love my gs350 💯 if only I could get CarPlay
You can
There is an aftermarket kit for it.
@@jpizel1070 Wassup would you recommend one?
@@jpizel1070link?
How was the droning in the cabin? Thinking of doing a muffler delete to mine
Wasn’t terrible but there was a lot of vibration so if you do a muffler delete I would highly recommend going to an exhaust shop to get pipe welded on while utilizing the factory hangers
No Apple CarPlay on the 2015. Trust me, I wish it did have it.
I added a carplay and now it is perfect! The integration is impeccable, you keep all the functionalities, it's simply mirror link (just keep pressing the menu key near the joystick for 3 seconds for the carplay to appear or turn off). 240$ and the installation is finally very easy (that was my fear at the beginning but in less than 2 hours it was finished)
Link to this add on? I’d love CarPlay, once I resolve the no sound/dying amp issue (I think) I have.
Does he have any muffler delete? I didn’t hear him mention anything about the exhaust does it come stock loud like that?
Yes, car had a muffler delete.
What exhaust mod does it have it sounds clean
Muffler delete and res delete
whats the exact setup he has for the exhaust? I think I'm gonna do the same to mine
exhaust shop cut the resonators out and the cats but that’s it
it's ok
Does the owner have a yt? Or any clips
No unfortunately
What happened to the z
I still got it homie, I’m gonna bring it back too the channel real soon
It is only shared with the is. And rc
Sounds like a 350z
Haha 😆
