This car is handling more and more like a German car. Not typical of Japanese car, steering has more feel.

Really fun to drive. Love the F Sport Instrumentation. Like the adaptive cruise and lane keeping. Extremely comfortable front seats and quality of finish and materials is outstanding. Feel like I got a good price since it was a new 2016 at $8000 discount from list. Only one with this equipment I could find. Had wanted a used LS but could not find one with the safety features. Decided to buy this and consider new LS coming out in the fall at a later date.

If you are looking for a quiet , smooth ride with great acceleration this is not for you. I just bought the car and it is pretty noisy. The tires Dunlop Sport max 050 are very noisy tires. You can feel every bit of the road. It averages over 70 decibels and I get 73-75 decibels of road noise. That was a disappointing. Other than that it is great in all respects leave aside the navigation. Oh and no storage for bottles on the side or a compartment for your glasses. I like the car but not the road noise. Seems each Lexus comes with different tires. So check those tires and make sure you have Michelins if you want a quiet ride. After 7 months I feel the car is a bit underpowered on normal drive mode. Only on Sports mode does it feel sporty and powerful enough. My 10 year old Acura MDX feels more powerful and responsive. So I have to drive it in Sports mode most of the time to feel somewhat good about driving it. After 1 year , I do find the car underpowered in normal mode. I now drive in sports mode all the time and it’s good. After 2 years my feelings are the same. It’s an underpowered car which is basically a city car. After one hour of driving you need to stretch since it starts to hurt. After 3 years the car has grown on me. I realized that the tires have to be inflated with just the right amount of air and then the car drives like a dream. If tires pressure is low then it starts to drag very quickly. All in all it’s a good car. My only complaint with the car after 3.5 years is uncomfortable seats. You cannot drive more than an hour without your butt hurting or going numb - something I have never faced in my Acura. So for me this remains a city car and I don’t take it for long drives. After 6 years, the car has grown on me and I have found a way to make sure it drives well. Tire pressure is key and regular oil changes and it does a good job and decent pick up and a good ride. And Lexus reliability is great.

I owned a ES300 for 15 years and loved the entire experience, including the <$1000 on non-maintenance repairs in 200,000 miles, so I bought a GS350 this time around. Of course the technology leap is huge, but I am getting the same great feeling about the car as my last Lexus experience. Build quality, ride quality, (with more power and handling this time around), comfort and features are all fantastic. Love this car.

Defective Navigation System - 2016 Lexus GS 350

Now January 2019 and still the same issue unresolved by Lexus. I just drove a 2018 Lexus and it has same nav defect. The Nav system is still defective and Lexus/Toyota has had 4 updates and still doesn't work correctly. The corporate management (or lack of) in Torrance and Irvine,CA don't respond to certified letters or calls to their 800#. My 2 portable Garmin gps units work perfectly but Lexus/Toyota doesn't. I even used my Garmin in the dealers car and his didn't work but my Garmin worked perfectly. I have written certified letters to the US Torrance HQ (VP Bracken) as well as their Western Region office (Irvine) and have never received a response. they just ignore me and the issue. Both the Riverside Dealership and the Newport dealership cannot fix the nav system. Lexus 800 # is totally useless. Navigation system goes to dead end road and says home is 0.2 miles away.
