Exterior - What the Auto Press Says

The GS offers a conservatively sophisticated look and excellent build quality, but many reviewers feel it's a bit bland next to some of the more aggressive-looking luxury sedans.

  • "The GS expresses simplicity, yet the car is thoroughly sculpted throughout its length. The design is perhaps a little predictable, yet the combination of this sleek shape and careful work to reduce aerodynamic turbulence beneath the car has produced a remarkably low 0.27 coefficient of aerodynamic drag, and this promotes a quieter interior and fuel efficiency." -- New Car Test Drive
  • "A well-defined sense of style, as Lexus adopts a ‘more passionate' styling direction." Forbes
  • "A long hood, "pulled-back" cabin and shorter rear end recall classic sports sedans. " -- MSN
  • "Long side glass and a steep back window enhance the GS 350's performance image." -- Cars.com
