Still Amazing After Three Years Of Ownership!
I just purchased a 2016 GS350 F-Sport (White Exterior, Red Interior) five years ago & I'm super impressed with this car overall. It replaced a 2017 IS200t F-Sport that I drove for a little under two years & loved that car, but needed to go back to a larger mid-size sedan (Previously Drove a 2015 Toyota Camry XSE V6) & for a few other reasons as well, mainly the engine & cupholders. I've driven several ES's & RX's as loaners which have soft seats & a cushy ride with secure handling, but bland driving dynamics. The ride & seats in the GS are both firm compared to those vehicles, but still agreeably comfortable & typical Lexus smooth even in the firmest Sport + driving mode & does a better job at soaking up bumps than my IS did. Handling is agile & much more fun to drive than the ES & RX. I'm in my late 30's & prefer more fun & agile handling with a small sacrifice in comfort. The V6 is a gem of an engine. It's very smooth, sounds great & is a perfect match for this car with just the right amount of power. The interior is true luxury quality with lots of leather & soft touch surfaces even on the lower parts of the dash & doors. Mine has the 17 Speaker Mark Levinson audio system which sounds amazing as expected & is easily the best sounding system I've ever experienced. I bought mine used with 41k miles for $31k after taxes. It even has the original window sticker in the glovebox & was priced at $58k when it was new. It looks & feels much more expensive than what I paid for it & has over thirty more features than what my IS had. I put almost 50k miles on my GS & has been perfectly reliable so far as expected. The car has been absolutely amazing with plenty of features for the money, I'm really into cars in general, mainly sedans & is extremely hard for me to find a car I like better than this one as I would easily buy another one as of now & I'll likely be saying that in five years from now! It's that good! It still puts a huge smile on my face every time I drive it, especially on the highway at higher speeds. I know there are better cars out there, but this car is as good as it gets for me at least for now & will likely last for many years with little to no problems.

The Importance of Being GS
Ideally designed as a conservative, red-state, luxury performance car, the AWD GS 350 looks modest in every direction one approaches it, that is until you put it into drive. Then, any notion of modesty slips off, the sports-mode turns up the heat in red, and you leave the ordinary playlist of luxury sports cars behind. It eats Jaguars and Maseratis like so much breakfast cereals. It impales BMWs and Mercedes Benz of similar class like Count Vlad of of Transylvania. And it does so with minimalist effort, as though dropping off the kids uniforms at the cleaners.Nothing about this car speaks of its great style and handling better than owning one and driving and driving and driving. The only drawback is that it is a beast in sheep's clothing. Never knew that gas could be consumed so quickly, by such a fuel efficient engine. But, test drive it. You'll see what I mean.

Some call it old. I call it old reliable & nice
Over all value and performance for this price is outstanding. Has luxury and power My two complaints. Heated steering wheel is heated on just two spots. 9 and 3 on the wheel. Sort of ridiculous. And the infotainment is distracting toy. But luckily I’m not into that’s stuff
Japanese mfg finally listening to consumers.
This car is handling more and more like a German car. Not typical of Japanese car, steering has more feel.

Love this car
This is a really phenomenal car at a great price point. I personally refuse to buy any German cars due to political reasons and as German cars are notoriously unreliable. The ride is quite quiet, and it is very smooth.
