I live in Germany and took this car over a German premium car (but the GS460 V8 since GS350 is not available here). This is as fast as German V8 of equivalent power, full options, very comfortable but a looooot cheaper in maintenance, even in Germany. The value depreciation is about the same. No German car is as reliable as the GS.
@@michaels4640 lmao. The g37 looks like an off brand sc430. I’d much rather have another Lexus and one with a 3uz nonetheless than some mess of a Nissan
BornToBeFamed I’m sure it is, but brand new paint vs 8 year old paint that’s seen water, dirt, will not look the same over time. Even if it’s a color match.
***** That's nice, you're lucky to own such a gorgeous car. :) It's a shame that is always gets forgotten on the internet, and IRL also, cause everybody prefers BMWs or Audis. I also don't like the fact that the 4th generation is not half as good looking as this one. Although its back doesn't look bad, the front is just completely ugly, mainly on the facelifted version. Yep, it's also a good point that it's a "Toyota". I'm thinking of getting one after finishing university, but that's quite far. This is one of my 3 favourite cars.
The design of this vehicle is somewhat forgettable? This GS was probably the best looking of all 4 generations even though I have a soft spot for the Ital designed 1st gen. The L finesse design of this car is one classy design.
Right, it's like that sexy milf that has a pleasant demeanor, works out everyday, makes nutritious and tasty food for the family everyday, has a college degree and works or volunteers part time...you know, that one you want for a long relationship.
Have had a 2010 gs350 for almost 6 years now and this thing is amazing! Not one complaint. Bought it with 80,000 miles on it and have 125,000 on it now, still going strong! We have the AWD version and it’s a tank in the snow here up north. I never want to get rid of this car. I have a 2011 Nissan maxima full loaded with only 71,000 miles on it. The Mrs and I usually take her car (Lexus) to keep my miles low as possible. Both are paid off and definitely don’t want another car pmt anytime soon
The ES is roughly the same size as this car but it is a FWD platform based on the Toyota Avalon now. The old one was essentially a fancy Camry. The two cars are designed to appeal to a different spectrum of buyers... and the ES is cheaper as well.
Correction: You said the GS bridges the gap between the IS and LS, when in actuality, it's the middle-sibling of the ES and LS, with the IS at the bottom of the Lexus sedan heap.
The ES is a different line completely and more like a luxury Camry. The IS, GS and LS are the three levels of the same lineage. So no correction needed, he was right.
@@kgisabeast it is getting discontinued technically. They're upgrading the ES to basically get rid of the GS. So essentially GS will become the forgotten Lexus.
Your opinion when it comes to Japanese luxury vehicles is always so negative. I think everyone here would agree that when reviewing vehicles, even if you don’t like them just leave your opinion out of it and speak facts about the vehicle. Most viewers are looking at these videos for insight on a purchase.
I STILL want this car. I had a 99 and it was the best car I ever had. I sometimes wish I didn't sell it. Ready to get back in the GS as my day to day runner.
It's definitely better all around with RWD along with the 18" wheels and Z rated 245/40 tires. It's still no sports car obviously, but with the extra couple of hundred pounds taken off, along with the two sized wider z rated tires, along with the optional adaptive/adjustable suspension that comes in the GS 460, the GS 350 rwd holds it's own and definitely drives a bit more sporty versus the awd model. I recently bought a fully loaded 2011 Lexus GS 350 RWD with under 40k miles on it, and I couldn't be happier with this car!
Drove the GS300 for 4 years when it first came out and now regretting selling it. Awesome car! Sad that lexus no longer includes the GS class in its lineup.
I have had a 98” Gs300- 202,000 plus miles when I sold, then I got another GS300 2005 325,000 miles when I sold it and now I have a 2006 GS430 .. i will always get a GS model. It’s quality at its best.
Just looking at it, it looks like this particular car was in a rear end collision or something and the bumper had to be replaced. It's not the same color as the rest of the car..
@@siseesan3147 Yeah..but the car is so good I really don't care :lol:. That should be the worst of my problems.Like the perfect wife that wears clothes that don't match.
forgotten is very accurate. You see much less of these than say an LS or ES. the 1 st gen models are especially rare. But overall theres not much to complain about. Great review.
Well I'm biased, as I own an IS250. I feel that Mercedes are cheap and chintzy with way too much Chrysler influence unless you pay upwards of $75,000. However, BMWs are generally excellent, but do cost more to maintain
I just found a 2007 gs350 awd with 65k miles on it for 10k one owner you think that’s worth it I want luxury but reliability also? Thanks hope you answer how many miles you got on yours and what maintenance have you had to do by chance?
German cars sell so well, because people think it’s a flex to waste money on lack of reliability and low quality. Anyone who thinks German cars are of quality, are poor. You’ll never see rich people by a Mercedes, BMW or Audi. They lease them. Hell, the owner off, I think Ford even owns a Lexus. OWNS! So people thinking your cool and what not owning a vehicles where the value drops faster than bank account owning a German car. You’re not. There is no flex is wasting money. Yes, I’ve owned BMWs, American and Japanese cars. I’m speaking from experience. The guy in the video talking about “soul”. You don’t by a Lexus to be sporty. Hence why Lexus own the VIP community. It’s for the stop of the comfort experience. Yakuza. Duh. Lol.
Is it just me or do you guys hate the way this thing looks to becuase my whole family hates the way it looks my mom just bought a 2014 LS 460 I know this is a 2011 And the refresh model looks way better than the old one!!
The 460’s are incredibly rare/hard to fine. I ended up getting a 430 a few years ago. It was perfect but I traded up to a newer GS350 f-sport. I plan to get a GSF in a couple years.
Over half of the information he is giving is wrong... There is a hybrid model, there is all wheel drive available in all states, there is a 2012 model, the screen is about 11" not 12, etc...
Actually sofyan, toyota/ lexus smart key system is designed to give added convenience. So locking the car requires a push of the button on the handle, but unlocking only requires a simple grab of the handle.
I agree the is 250 catches my eye specially the front the way it’s design, but it’s so small like a Corolla 🤣. The ES 2011 model has like cat eyes, & it’s just big 😩
I'm currently saving to update my ride to this. I have a 98 lexus gs 400, not too sure on what trim to buy 460? Or just go with the v6 cheaper on gas but I want the V8 POWER since I'm used to my gs 400 anyways but its killing me on gas lol
These were the best looking Lexus GSs made. Good video! But I'm curious, in the beginning when you talked about the trim levels for this car you forgot to mention GS330. I'm so confused because the only 2006 models I have seen were 330s and I have never seen a 300 in this body style. My cousin has a 06 RX330 and I believe they used the 330 badge across the lineup of V6 cars lexus made.
Just picked up an 07' 2 weeks ago. I've wanted one since I graduated high school in 2009. I am in love with this car. Easily the best car I've ever owned.
It looks sexy even tho it old and beat up, can’t say the same for a late 90s early 2000s car, but I’m personally not fond of 80s and late 90s early 2000s car designs too many ugly oval shapes and bubbles.
Sure the German cars drive differently and probably more fun but when the repair bills come you gonna wish you was driving a Lexus! I had BMWs, MB and Infiniti and the Lexus by far is the best brand for your money periodt!!!
German cars can’t compare to the quality and reliability of Lexus they only thing Mercedes and bmw have over Lexus IS performance but they don’t out last Lexus and the German cars will break you there Electrical nightmares and Audi too
I simply think the driver in this video isn’t a confident driver. My 06 gs430 is perfect enough that I want to buy an awd v6 one so I can drive in style still and snowboard next year while supercharging my 430
Much rather take this over a 5 series of the same year because you don't really see this car on the road as much as the bmw. plus the inside is much more luxurious and it's just as fast
I bought one of theses in 2020 as a work car with 170k miles for $5500. Bought from a 1 owner CA guy drove from LA to sacramento weekly. Put some BC coilovers, 19s on it and installed a tesla screen with carplay. $9k all in. It drives brand new. Super quiet and great gas mileage for the power. Had a BMW years ago and it was a never-ending maintenance pit. Other than oil changes and changing the brake pads once, I've had absolutely no issues with this car despite it now having 219kmiles now. Flawless car.
HI. THANKS. IS A 2011 LEXUS GS 350 A 3RD GEN OR 4TH GEN ? IM TRYING TO BUY THE LAST YEAR 3RD GEN GS 350. THANKS. ANYBODY KNOWLEDGABLE PLEASE REPLY SOON.
u said it yourself...this car "isolates" u from the road...exactly why i hate toyotas/lexus...i would choose one of the german competitors in a heartbeat no matter how ridiculously expensive or unreliable...
Why is he handling the car so roughly & did he just say the design is forgettable? This GS is one of the best looking four door cars ever designed.
I love the GS line with LS as second choice, but obviously first in comfort since it's high end
***** That'd be the Lexus ES.
+flunk77 ES is the fancier camry the GS is a fansier avalon and LS stands on its own.
Alex Bystrov The avalon is FF isn't it? and the GS is RWD
+Alex Bystrov nope the newer es is based on the avalon
My moms 07 v6 Camry has 220k and it pulls like the day she bought did. Toyota/Lexus are one hundred percent, the best cars money can buy.
Here’s my four years’ experience driving this car: it’s not boring to drive and it does give you all the pride and puts a smile on your face.

Other than oil changes and changing the brake pads once, I've had absolutely no issues with this car despite it now having 219kmiles now. Flawless car.
Is power mode essentially sport mode?
HI.
THANKS.
IS A 2011 LEXUS GS 350 A
3RD GEN OR 4TH GEN ?
IM TRYING TO BUY THE LAST YEAR 3RD GEN GS 350.
THANKS.
ANYBODY KNOWLEDGABLE PLEASE REPLY SOON.
i think its ugly
I consistently get like 5.5 secs to 60 in my 08
In my younger years, I loved this car... but then I grew up and became a MAN! and moved up to the LS460 😌
u said it yourself...this car "isolates" u from the road...exactly why i hate toyotas/lexus...i would choose one of the german competitors in a heartbeat no matter how ridiculously expensive or unreliable...
Do a 2004 Mercury Marauder
Why that's a crappy ugly car
Why does he keep saying it’s forgettable it’s not I own a 2010 pearl white I love the car! It’s better than the 4th GEN witch looks like the IS model!
