  • looks like a maximum

  • lexus is an ugly car. i would rather be caught dead in a proton than in a lexus. lexus is like a kitten trying to be a lion. just not up to the par with german automaker. the only reason lexus sell is better options. its like what the korean auto maker are now doing. giving better value for money. but in the end its still korean. just like lexus, in the end its still japanese. end of story.

  • When you first walked around the rear of the car it totally resembles a 7 Series...

  • @ltrebl Or it resembles its daddy Lexus Ls460 -.-

  • @ltrebl and u do know that all current BMW rear designs are a direct rip off of the LS460, eh?

  • If you guy's wanna see a car the new cadillac ats is where you wanna be for electronics racing and sleek design, this lexus is nice, but thats all.

  • LOL who's the awkward guy just sitting in the driver seat?

    

  • my dad doesn't like it but i love it!!

  • Even WORSE than the previous model; this looks like a Hyundai Sonata! Nothing flows together! The E-Class, 5 Series, and A6 blow this out of the water! Heaven's sake, I would rather settle for a (much better overall) Infiniti M. Lexus just stepped behind Infiniti in styling. HORRIBLE!

  • @SanDiegoInnOut umm everything flows together on the sonata its just is curvier than the germans cause the germans have no creativity when it comes to car designing. look at a sonata and jjust start at a random point on the car and follow the line it connects to almost everything. most cars are done in 4 or 5 lines

  • Take a picture of this interior and compare it to the BMW 5 series. It's scary how close the look, even down to the location of the vents.

  • tailights inspired by the lexus LFA

  • the way chinese and japos copy everything from the EU and US market is absolutely ridiculous. no creativity whatsoever. and when they have to come with something on their own to cover it all up they come up with a face-grill like that. what a joke. what are those things? horns? lol what a joke. black people will love it though

  • @SmokeEm122 Oh really??!! COPY?! First of all, China doesn't make cars on on the same scale as even France. Second, the Japanese are pioneers (not inventors but innovators) when it comes to cars. Americans learned KAIZEN from the Japanese.

    Everyone learns from everyone, you just call it copying. They call it "when something works in business, why mess with it?!" And that goes for the American, Europeans, Japanese and everyone who's in business.

  • still lacks aggression imo

  • @FitnessSurrender - 100% agree. That's what the LS is for - long and boring.

  • looks like NISSAN MAXIMA

  • Toyota just lost . Buick please stand up quickly

  • interior, EEEEEEEW!!! it's like a SUV interior, why not put the gear lever on the steering wheel they were at it.

  • Mitsubishi concept ZT was announced in 2007. sonata was announced in 2009.

    Actually, the back resembles concept ZT from sonata.

  • I want one

  • I'm a Cadillac guy, I see GM failing every year on their interiors. They should try to get a "BMW" like interior like yours. Good job Lexus you did good!

  • Hate it... So disappointed.

    I was hoping for so much more style than this. It's chintzy, derivative, bland. There is no way I would buy this over a 5 Series or an A6.

  • @FCScorpio79 You also noticed what a blantant COPY the interior is of a German car too, huh? Lexus and Toyota can go suck it...they are so over for me.....

  • THEY DID IT. WOW LOOKS SO GOOD

  • That car looks so sexy but dont try and copy audi with the new highlights.

  • @TweekinE look @ it this way, a lot of new cars now come with LED lights.

    Including BMW and BENZ. I guess Audi have successfully made LED a design cue for luxury vechicles.

  • like the new look, I just dont like how the rear end of the car looks like that of the IS

  • how is that interface nice? overbright blue colour scheme .. looks like something i would find cool back in the 90ties when 256 colours on a pc was the stuff... just look at the idrive or mmi ... looks much better

  • So German in the interior, too much plastic still,  but the build quality is like no other!! LOVE IT!!

  • Finally a lexus that looks like a luxary car and notva shiny camry

  • Such a copy of a German interior. Hey Lexus....(or should we address you as TOYOTA?)....how about some ORIGINAL designs of your own? Oh, the outside looks like a jazzed up car from Korea.

  • @aaaredskin By referring to them as Toyota, you are saying a lot of good things, do you realize that?

  • @adyyy22 Are you even aware of what has been happening to that "iron clad" reputation Toyota had for quality and reliability in the past 5 to 10 years? Are you? If not, you embarrass yourself with your post....even TOYOTA execs have ADMITTED to reliabilty and quality lapses in the past 5 to 10 years.

  • @aaaredskin How about Toyota was taking over US auto sales and GM was selling shit. Something had to be done to ruin their reputation as good quality. How many years was Camry the best selling car? Yeah, that's what i though. I have an 07 Camry, not one single issue with it. My friend has 90 Camry, 250.000 miles, everything original, sounds and rides smooth, i mean what's that about? Give me a break.

  • @adyyy22 What kind of a man drives a Camry....or even admits to it?

  • @aaaredskin

    A smart man who doesn't drive dumb American or German shit that breaks down.

  • @aaaredskin A man that knows how to save money, man that would rather spend money on his family than car that breaks down constantly. a man that knows quality.

  • @aaaredskin

    Nice try troll. But Toyota's reliability ranking by JD and Consumer Reports has NEVER fallen out of the top 5 out of 35 car companies. NEVER. And by the way no German company besides Porsche has ranked higher than 20th in the last decade.

  • @utahgs Enjoy your Toyota....the perfect car for women, momma boys, and sheeple....ahhh yes....and a car that has never quite had a soul.

  • @aaaredskin

    Weak rebuttal. By my assessment, you are an unemployed 28 year old living in your parent's Den. Your other unemployed sibling took the basement, at least he doesn't troll on Youtube since he's too busy playing LOL or WOW.

  • @utahgs At least I can take pride that I will never be seen driving a Toyotya Camry! My gosh....I bet you like VW convertible Beetles too....another girl car! Bet you have a skinny neck with broomstick arms and legs...lol...

  • @aaaredskin

    I take pride that my Toyota Landcruiser is a '92 with 200,000 miles and has never once broken down on me. U mad?

  • @utahgs Wow....you're quite the big spender...lol....

  • @aaaredskin

    I have 2 cars =)

    One for snow. One for speeding.

  • wow, i absolutley love it. you can tell it has some dna of the LF-A super car.

  • Comment removed

  • Old one looks better

  • this is too expensive to me

  • the back, imo looks bad, it's like an acura and a hyundai combined

  • Looks like Hyundai sonata

  • Does everyone remember when BMW was ridiculed for their i-Drive system back when it was first introduced? Granted…it was a very new concept… and the new system is VERY easy to use. Why is it now that all of their competitors now have “copied” them? Yes, I am a BMW enthusiast. It can be summed up like this. “BMW leads the way in technology.” I don’t care what anyone says. Name me a car now that is not “going” to some sort of “i-Drive” system. Their just naming it something else.

  • they straight caught up copied BMW's dash board. 

  • I like the old one more.

  • looks like a sonata frm the back

  • @BigKiddStats - nope they both look different ... need to get your eyes checked

  • @rahulgosh1 I have glasses so I'm fine :))

  • @BigKiddStats - then u will kno the back end of a sonata is different ... with the lights more roundish .... get them checked again ... jus a suggestion .. mayB its time

  • anyone else think that the rear of the car is derived from the Lexus IS? Also, it seems (to me) that the rear tail lights resemble the 2011/2012 Hyundai Sonata (when there is low light)

  • i dont think this cars all that! interior is out of this world nice but not the outside! Watch out for hyundai folks! they are stepping it up!

  • Great!

  • fugly

  • ugly car, especially the front

  • she is so hot ( i mean the car )

  • bmw inside

    

  • Ugly

  • While it may be attractive, this Lexus is imitating not innovating. Up front, the GS looks like a more aggressive Nissan Maxima with Audi inspired headlights. Down back, Lexus went to their photo copiers and hit duplicate on Volkswagen's new "L" tail light that we also see on newer BMWs (e.g.: 2012 3-Series). The sat/nav is seemingly gorgeous but is left feeling like a gimmick (that is, it tries too hard) and their version of iDrive looks more like "iDon't". The GS is charming but I'm not a fan.

  • @andreuoid i have to admit that Toyota/Lexus are finally ditching their boring look to a more fresher look, and i was bit impressed. However, it does not strike to me as original nor innovative as you said. It's just an updated Lexus, and its design will become boring after couple months of its launch. Most shocking to me was the rear tailights... I could not believe Lexus made a design that resembles Hyundai Sonata...

  • @preventor333 You're an idiot. It's not worth the keystrokes to highlight all the fail in your post.

  • @andreuoid Hmmm... I didn't know an updated Lexus IS-inspired tail light from 2006, is somehow copying a 2012 car. Yet, another envious dumbass.

  • buying it only 48,000.

  • I wish they'd bring back the SC300/SC400 coupes, i loved thoughs, 1UZ-FE one of the best engines I've ever owned.

  • There's no way the 4th Gen GS is better looking than the 3rd Gen. This new one is just ungainly, does not flow well, and looks like Lexus was trying to 'out BMW BMW'. I hate the that 3rd gen didn't sell as well as the 5, A, or E. But it wasn't because of the design. The last 5 series BMW was not an attractive car either, but it had the right logo on the hood.

  • @169PercentTroof agree in every way!

  • I would not operate that navigation screen while driving. Icons are too small and looks like it would take too much focus to operate.

  • @Arguemento No, dummy. The new GS was leaked and spotted WAY before the warmed over 'new' 3 Series, was ever seen. You fail.

  • I see no reason to give up my LS400 for it.

  • @wholeNwon You drive an LS400 ... not even a 460 ... which means your car is about 5-9 years old. That in its self would be reason for me to get the new GS 460. In many regards, the new GS has tecnology and features, that aren't even found on the current LS 460/600hL. Not to mention, you're comparing two totally different cars. An LS is a soft, vanilla, luxurious ride, geared toward older people. The GS is a sporty, engaging, luxurious ride, geared towards younger people.

  • @Neno8403 No, my LS400 is 14 years old now. Yes, when I wasn't looking, I got old (how did that happen?). The car has stability control, traction control, ECT, continuously variable valve timing, a superb audio system, built in radar detectors (front and rear antennas), etc. With tire pressure at 32 psi, handling is very acceptable (relative to 2 new M-B "sports sedans" I've owned). Reliability, of course, has been much better than the M-Bs.

  • Bah!

  • yea yea everything is a copy of everything.. but the front looks like audi? are you crazy?

  • rearview and tail lamp = copy of sonata

  • @agentscu11y No, dummy, how about the Sonata is a copy of the Lexus IS, which is much older than the wannabe Sonata. You fail.

  • do you know if theres a sport version??

  • @MrAmar343  lexus.com/GS-2013/FSport/?cid=­GS11NBPREFSPORT

  • @autospies thnx

  • @MrAmar343 gs-f sport

  • They had me until you got to the interior....why does every automaker feel the need to create a miserable digital interphase for all the controls? Just give me simple tactile controls and my smartphone will do the rest!

  • Sweet! The front end looks pretty aggressive! Love the new navigation interface!!!

  • so what if you guys think is not original, this car has a bit of everything , which is amazing

  • @wtf000000000000 yeah Lexus needs to send Audi a paycheck! This car copied everything from Audi except the L badge. Fail!

  • yea,maybe u right,but stil could be seen in the morning,unless u have black tints lol

  • LOL. I love reading comments on Lexus videos just to see the idiotic comments! Dummies stating the new GS's rear "looks like a Sonata!" and "looks like a Bimmer" ... this despite the FACT That these tail lights are blended evolutions of the current Lexus IS and LS ... two vehicles that were both out years before the current Sonata AND BMW which ripped off Lexus, not the other way around!! Dummies stating Lexus ripped off Audi's LEDs. Are they crying foul over Mercedes + Chrysler who did it too?

  • Look nice,but the navi is to deep in.

  • @deedee2284 I think they did it so it doesn't attract too much attention if parked in a bad area.

  • Excellent! BMW's Technology and reliability - they're CRAP, they'll never catch up to Lexus. BMW would probably be reliable if you take away all the technology. Going back to Lexus, no more German cars for me.

  • Epic.

  • Looks like they copied all the other auto makers style and came up with this car. BMW like interior and tail lights, Audi style front grill, and leds, Infiniti clock. lol.

  • The exterior is alright but the interior disappointed me a lot! The navigation screen looks like a BMW and the controls for it as well. I loved it when it was touch screen... I love Lexus but nothing seems original on this one!!

  • Well executed. Design is very strong and unique. Excellence first look review from a guy who clearly knows the industry. Well done Lexus, well done 001.

  • Front is elegantly sporty and beauthifully understated. Rear unfortuneately looks like a cheap-ass Kia.

  • I think this design was safe... Step it up next time Lexus!!! However the fact still a nice car..

  • @jugerknott09 Yea I think they played it safe to see how the masses react. They may make some slight tweaks between now and when it launches next year. But what I am looking forward to is the redesigned Lexus IS

  • The interioe and the rear lights(when on)looks like a Bimmer!

  • nice car...ugly ass IMO

  • Really liked the interior...

    But the exterior is just so dull

  • EPIC CAR.... Sweet sedan !

  • pfftt the rear looks like a sonata

  • OK front, ugly rear and far behind the competitors inside look, and definitely it is not for car entusiasts. thats's lexus.

  • There's is nothing like it...Lexus has done an awesome job this time again. I love that in your face front facia. Excellent car. Can't wait for it to be at the dealership.

  • clumsy

  • i hate so much right now lexus!!! 9 years u didnt change the look of the gd!!! and we were waiting all this long time for what!! to see new gs just look like a camry ??? really desipointed!!! i really wish that u just stuck with the older look :(

  • @xfahoodx How the fuck does this look anything like a camry?

  • @NafisC I was wondering that the Audi A6 look like a VW Jetta, especially the back end.

  • Comment removed

  • Everything looks like Audi these days... Nice car!!

  • Love the exterior but the interior is too bimmerish. Not that it's a bad thing it's just not original. I'm sticking to my ISF

  • They did an amazing job in the front, but the rear is just an ES feeling, should have done better job. Overall, good looking car. 

  • Since when was it a bad thing that The competition is catching up to european auto makers?.. Should make us consumers happy. Lol..

  • where do i sign>>

  • its a bit is-F like.

  • sick metallic color

  • ill get that girl pregnant

  • nice car

    

  • 1. front grill looks like predator bad

    2. interior design from LF-A good

    3. overall design cannot match BMW MERC or JAG

  • @claudeleason Design destroys the Merc and has more presence than the Jag but not as pretty as either the Jag or BMW.

  • @claudeleason Yeah, I agree. This GS FAR exceeds the drab, boring, dull designs of the 5-Series, E Class, and wannabe Jaguar. Someone finally speaks the truth!

  • is that porn

  • spy before u buy!!!!!

  • keep up with the EUROPEAN hot carshow babe introduction in the future. Thumbs up if you agree with me!

  • bmw interior

  • Comment removed

  • Hey buddy I didnt call anyone out of there name... But anyways its knida hard for me to be an idot with a masters degree. I'm letting you know that the Audi r8 was the first in the automotive industry with full led lighting technology in its headlights. A full led headlight....on the other hand the LSh had led's for the low beam only. Thats a huge difference right? So the question was who was the first to have leds in the front of the cars right? I answered correct with the audi s6.

  • Agent 001 saying diff parts of the Lexus look like Audi and other elements of other companies is radical. Its a Lexus, it looks like an Lexus. Nice evolution from the previous GS. The cars original to the tee...Only thing it favors is its own siblings like all other companies cars favor each other. All Acura,Bmw's, Audi's, Infiniti's, Mercedes and so forth favor there car, and suv siblings.

  • FUGLY

  • in the rear it looks much the same as ((hyundai sonata 2011))

  • Honestly, I am not impressed by new design, look too confusing with new ES, although not to the lexus owners. especially both front and rear lamps look too similar shape with ES, i was hopping to see slip front lamps like prev one, also tail like 2nd gen, but oh well

  • Omg!

  • this car is great but i dont think that it is as eye catching as a 5 series

  • Lexus is gonna use that front grill as a trademark. There is gonna be gs350-F SPORT but no gs-f. Ls-F sport, rx-F sport and ct-F sport are soon to come.

  • @eulluisgtr34 but how do you know that???

  • @whippedful cuz i work at a Lexus dealer and we had a meeting on all the new stuff that's coming out.. They want to unveil gs350-F SPORT at SEMA.

  • I do not believe that the next gen GS looks like audi or bmw. It's in a totally different leag.

  • 3:25 "second to none"? 3rd to bimmer/merc... i drive an ugly evo and this thing is ugly also...some cars are too good no matter what looks are

  • i fear a ton of dust will get on that gps

  • nice car

  • the only thing i like about this uly thing is that it will make the beautiful 2007 GS price go down

  • BMW interior... fucking idiots

  • Audi copycat outside

    BMW inside

    Steering wheel looks like they just took it from GX

    And this guy is brand snob.... Not worthy qualified for review editor....

  • I like the exterior...looks original and lexus-like. Inside looks exactly like a BMW. I just wish Lexus stuck to its authentic interior design.

  • Looks ugly

  • looks like a fake BMW M3's face

  • all i can say is WOW!!!

  • hmm, 've been used to touch screen thingy so much. Thus, not quite sure if this new interface 'd do the trick or not...

  • Absolutely amazing lookign car. Best looking lexus ever and one of my favourite saloon cars of today

  • So... it also comes with a driver! Thats insane!!

  • The most sexy sport sedan ever

  • i want to cry because it's so beautiful.....

  • THANK YOU FOR THE DEMO.

    I AGREE WITH YOU, IT'S NICER THAN THE OLDER MODEL, ALSO SPORTY BUT STILL LUXURY.

    I LOVE IT. .GREAT JOB LEXUS.

  • Also I agree that Lexus Ls600hl was the first LED lights

  • I think I am going to BUY when it's will come

  • Comment removed

  • So wheres the BMW logo?

  • Dear Santa.........................­.

  • looks nice that rear end looks like an IS/LS combo....what about the chassis is it new? looks like they might be using the same one?

  • cant wait to see the GS-F i bet it will eat the M5 !!

  • MY GOD.... this car is just sex on wheels.... inside and out this car is just SWEEEEEEEEET !!!!

    Awesome job Lexus. This car jumped to the front in its class.

  • This is a nice lexus! Nice exterior and interior. I'll buy this anyday over a bmw or mercedes. Btw lexus was the first with the led front lights, not audi. LS600hl was the first.

  • @Abel12V hahaha lexus lol it looks like audi 0:39

  • @Abel12V There is a difference between LED technology for Projectors and LED Day time running lights. Audi was the first to introduce LED DRL's on the market. Lexus simply had LED technology in their headlights, just a step up from Xenon headlights but the LS never had DRL's. And if you want to take it back as far as LED technology then the Infiniti was the first to introduce LED tail lights on all of their cars back in 2000.

  • @Abel12V

    dude i wuld love to see a prooff as i am a lexus fan i wana now coz led front lights is only been famous by audi

  • @TruTube911 Uhhhm if you do your recearch you'le see that the first vehicle with daytime running LED's were actually the Lexus LS600h uveiled in 2008
