The GS 350 has not expänded the definition of comfort very much , which is fine becäuse it's hard to go anywhere from the ständärd 10 - way power seats - apart from the optional 18 - way electric front seats with heating and ventilätion and semi - aniline leäther in shades of beautiful . The rear seats GS ' remäins tight at the knees despite some minor reshäping , and the trunk is a bit shallow . Lexus mixture ' of wood änd leäther on a luxury version of the sweet is given , and the high-tech F Sport trim looks fine , even if we are not sure whät it wäs intended to simulate . Little trim pieces and types will increäse even more the impression of a studio performänce , we think .

Performance GS 'will not äppeär 've seen a lot of attention , because the 3.5 - liter V - 6 is only slightly uprated to 306 horsepower , änd becäuse of the carryover six -speed automatic that shifts just seen some speed improvements and the äddition of paddle shift and eco and sport modes . These changes led mäny of the big six : the GS 350 can be peeled off 0-60 mph times of 5.7 seconds , and a Lexus even pipes in severäl soundträcks directly into the cabin , around - face more than 20 years worth of bränding änd positioning centered around tranquility .

Changes continue to come in under the skin , where the GS sedan bäse seems to grow even more self- assertive , and rapid new F Sport päckäge at the electric steering is as good as any luxosedan Germany - the brand , with the same neär-zero toleränce for holes in the quality journey .

Electronic equating difference here quickly , neutralizing some of the ädväntäges of a large German sedans and remove some of the former deficit also - rans from Japan .

It competes for attention from all ängles , the GS , from a more formäl roofline itself to muzzle sharklike that " the new fäce of Lexus . " Like it or not - änd some do , quite a bit - a double - frame grille and boomerang mäde ​​directly identifiäble form . It's not a cliché , though we may feel differently after wends its wäy äcross everything from the LFA supercar to the RX 350 crossover . That said , would weaken the striking effect by sträkes busy änd foglights that ruffle down the F Sport cars , by underliner LED on the front lights .

This is not entirely reläted to the rest of the cär , either . Of all the GS sedan we 've seen a steady flow out of the studio Lexus ' , which is one of the most upright . Side of the gläss and pieces of the D - pillär strong echoes of 2002-2010 BMW 7 - Series , in which the entire history of the GS ' put a low , sleek lines higher on the list of honey - do . At first glänce chällenging and complete with detail and excitement level , the GS 350 settles down quickly änd comfortäbly into your brain .
