    Lexus needs to bring back the GS. I’m keeping my 2016 GS forever, because that’s a true Lexus.

    Lexus needs to bring back the GS with a naturally aspirated V-8 and V-6 all wheel drive. All Lexus vehicles need to come standard with the Mark Levinson sound system and triple beam headlights, and all Lexus vehicles need to come standard with genuine leather interiors.

    They didn't build what everybody needs. They built what everybody wanted

    I just bought the 2026 IS 350 F-Sport. Naturally aspirated V6, made in Japan, over 300 HP, fun to drive, beautiful interior, super reliable. Couldn't be happier.

    I don’t mind platform sharing between Toyota and Lexus but A LEXUS HAS TO FEEL “SPECIAL”. The only way you can do that is a combo of unique powertrains, drive characteristics, and interior material (which they already know this). Just shocked they only just care about sales numbers now…

    Lexus need to start taking this seriously and lock in, if they ever want to improve their business

    When the LS got rid of the V8 in 2018 , I decided to buy a used 2016 to keep that reliable legendary V8 and it didnt disappoint,  I kid you not 10 years later not a single repair ! Only regular maintenance..

    I still have my mother's 1990 Lexus with only 189,500 miles. It's clean and runs like new. She took great care of it and I continued to take care of it.

    I've owned a 2022 camry LE and now I own a 2017 Lexus ES 350. I can confidently say that I love my Lexus way more and will keep it for many years to come.

    It's interesting that it was pointed out in this video that Lexus was losing its way by building the IS and the LC, because those are my favorite two models. I did like the GS as well and was eagerly waiting for an updated model, but instead they phased it out.
