Not one word about the elephant in the room - reliability. A few years ago I owned a 2009 M3 for one year - best driving car I've ever owned. But I'd never buy another one because of the repairs (2 wheel speed sensors, door opening issues, DRL burnt out, steering wheel and door trim peeling, bad rattle behind glove box). BMW has recently improved, but they are clearly focused on driving experience when new - not long-term reliability. I bought a Lexus GS350 F Sport a couple years ago. Slower and duller, but far better put together, and no issues at all. If I were leasing and just looking for a fully warrented drive for a few years, BMW all the way. But since I'll be buying and keeping, the GS F will most likely be my next car.

Well said. I came from a similar experience to yours (albeit much lower budget), I had a Honda Civic Type R FN2 and owned it for three years without a SINGLE issue, everything "Just worked", I sold it and upgraded to a 2011 Mk6 Golf GTi with all the bells and whistles and I've had nothing but issues in 6 months (Weather strips are falling off, windows don't work half the time, gearbox issues, touch display issues). Sure my older Civic Type R interior wasn't as flash and luxury, but I'm willing to suck up these first world problems if it means I won't have to wait another four days and cough up more $$$ to send my Golf back into Volkswagen to get fixed again. I'm definitely putting this up for sale once I've payed off fixing the issues and moving to another Japanese hot hatch. Edit: Forgot to mention, my god how much it costs more to maintain a german car. $$$$

You're right HodsBroo! A 400bhp car will feel no different to a 500bhp car on the road. And that's the thing, performance cars like the GS-F and RS6 never go to the track. You'll never be able to exploit that power difference so you might as well go for the best experience possible, not the most performance. And that's where the GS-F steps in, all about the experience, with its fat, old school NA V8.

I wouldn't necessarily say that it's better. The S6 and M550i (which isn't out yet) are built to be low-key but maintain an high level of performance, so they have a certain appeal because they don't really stand out: the wolf in sheep's clothing. To be honest, that's my type of cars, very subtle, but with the little details and the unexpected performance. The Ghibli S Q4 is all out. Weirdly enough, it's not quite as fast as these (or as fast as it looks tbh), but it certainly looks better than the rest, it sounds like nothing else, and overall it's more exotic because it's a bloody Maserati. So it's for another type of people, the ones who want more emotions. The GS F is somewhere between these. It has the performance of the M550i (i think) but probably not the quality, composure and tech of the S6, or the appeal of the Maserati, but sounds as good as the Maserati and looks more bold than the M550i and the S6. It's an alternative, not an upgrade. The M5, RS6 and E63S are upgrades. That's why they cost that much more.

Not the best in specs, but the NA V8 is a huge selling point. If it were supercharged and making the same power levels, it may not find as many buyers.

I love this car. Regarding the indicators, that's how indicators have worked for tens of years, it's the same in our Fabia and our A3. It's how it's supposed to be if you ask me.

I'm a huge german fanboy, but I think Lexus has finally made it. A car that' s awesome in every way. I really really hope it' s going to take a good chunk of german sales to make them regret putting turbos and shit. New german cars aren' that exciting to me for a couple of years now already.

If u want a better quality interior go for the presidential line of the Gs 450h, it has an incredible interior and if it wasn't for the new lcd screens on the E class the Lexus blows it away completely. The choice of materials and craftsmanship is flawless with far less plastic than What's in this car. The truth is all the cars in this segment have some plastic in them, there is not one competitor without plastic materials. What matters is that the plastic is soft touch and that's what is in the Gs 450h 2017 presidential line.

The majority of people would prefer to have a reliable car that has performance that is applicable in the real world.

The quality of this channel is great! In my opinion it deserves so many more subs!

Also much more reliable compared to German super performance competition. Speaking from experience really, do not smack me :-) Owner here :-)

in who's eyes is this a pleasing monstrosity to look at. I can't believe Lexus actually moving these much better than I expected.

In the C63, it makes 469 horsepower $144,900 to $173,990 for the C63 S and C63 S Lexus gs f with a 5.0L V8 producing 467 horsepower The 2020 GS F starts at $85,010 That's insane Maybe only rich people can afford to buy German cars and when it breaks you will cry homie

it would be interesting to compare it to the Holden / Chevy Impala SS. Same approach different budget. I'm not sure the Lexus would really stand out, for the money.

I think this is one of the best car shows on you tube. But comparing the E63 vs a GSF is a bit unfair no? The price difference of a fully loaded E63 is much more expensive than a GSF.

Why did he not mention reliability and maintenance? The number one reason why ide buy one....

You're trying to downplay the car....it has a lot going for it, it's stylish, has a 471 hp V8, comfortable, reliable and keeps a good resale value. Not sure what else you could want.

GSF > S6, M5, and AMG63 .... I don't buy a car for 2 years only. The daily experience matters most.

The reason why you're having trouble with that infotainment system is because you have the steering wheel on the wrong side. If it were on the correct side, ie the left side, then you would probably be using your right hand for that mouse thing. Vast majority of people are right handed.

The Nintendo analogy is apt, designed for the less skilled and more timid in mind. Designed for the lifelong corolla driver who has a good deal of money to purchase something familiar, like transmission lag.

Why on earth take a high powered high performance car for a test drive in the New Forest on 40 mph limited roads? C'mon you guys are really good at this but this video is just letting yourself down big time.

This car would be much more reliable than the German cars, guaranteed. Thats why old stuff is used; naturally aspirated engine, a torque converter automatic and not a dual clutch etc. Lexus knows that these things work and will be durable because theyve been perfected over years. If youre not that rich, you'll have much greater satisfaction owning a car that is reliable but not as technologically advanced.

I think it's a pretty cool car because it's different. If you used it everyday you would no doubt love it. Well made, reliable. It's only when you compare it to the Germans it comes unstuck. Turbos and AWD have turned the German super saloons in to true giant slayers and this can't compete with that. Regardless, I do think it's pretty cool.

I've never driven any M series or AMG cars so my opinion is irrelevant but on videos the Lexus looks more special than the German counterparts

Is the transmission really that bad? Will Lexus put a better transmission for it in the future?

How are the same people that made the LFA? I was expecting a v10 with 560hp.

what I find weird is that German Cars and Italians are measured on their own terms. everything else is likened to them. I have yet to find a car measured for what it is in this class. That said I am a fan of cars not made in Germany so...

Good video but a bit odd...the interior has too much plastic? I drive a 2015 BMW 335i M Sport and one of my best friends has a 2014 BMW 550i M Sport and our steering wheel, which gets tons of praise, has some of the cheapest plastic in the automotive universe and no one ever comments on that. I would also say the interior on the GS is better than the 5 series and my 3 series by a pretty hefty margin. While my time in the GSF is somewhat limited I"ve got a lot of time in the GS350 F Sport which is a far nicer car than my 3 series or my buddies 5 series AND it drives better too, especially in Sport or Sport plus. The suspension is tuned better less wallow and roll, the steering is tuned better which inspires confidence, throttle tip in is great, the transmission is on par with the 8AT sport in the BMW products. Only area where BMW wins in my judgement is brake feel, and even at that its a marginal win. The brakes on the GS 350 are a touch spongy, can't really comment on the GS-F with regard to brake feel.

The minute you called the GS's interior cheap I stopped listening to you and started merely hearing your words. Everyone knows that even in its middle age, the GS has one of the highest quality interiors out there. Much better than BMW, Audi and Jaguar for sure. You also called the car heavy, when a simple Google search would tell you that it's actually the lightest in its class by several hundred kilograms. That's my issue with reviewers, you guys don't like differences. And that's wrong. What is a car if not for its differences. You complain about Lexus infotainment system for example, but if you actually use the thing for more than a week you'll see that it's actually very easy to use. It's irritating that you guys expect everything to look and behave like something else. BMW uses a knob. Mercedes copied and started using a knob. Audi joined the fun and started using a knob. And Lexus said fuck y'all sheeps, I'm using a weird mouse thing and giving my customers a reliable, NA high revving V8 to play with instead. And for that I say good for Lexus. If I had the coin, my money would speak all day to the tune of the GS-F. Sorry Germany, but you can keep your fragile duel clutch transmissions and turbo engines with fake stereo engine noises. This car is everything German cars don't have the balls to be. German engineers will never swallow their pride, step down, and say "I'm gonna make a fun car with usable power for my customers to have fun in". Instead it will always be POWER, POWER and more POWER. Let's throw more power at the car, even if the tech isn't proven. Even if it breaks. Even if the power isn't usable, let's just throw power. I'm so sick of this "big d**k contest" that has plagued our automotive world.

Funny thing. German engineers want power, power, power. Yet Tesla still blows them out of the water in acceleration. So German fanboys, its not all about power, is it?

The fact u say the gs has better inteiror than bmw or merc of same class is just too funny😂 look this car is overall worse in performance(by ALOT) and overall build quality(uses chepaer materials).but big deal its got a great sound NA v8 that prob wont have too many issues. Lexus fanboys are some of the worst on the internet calm your fucken tits be happy u got reliable NA motors in your cars and stop trying to bash other car companys (specifically german ones) that make better cars.
