I FLEW TO HOUSTON, TX TO DRIVE MY "DREAM" CAR! | 2015 Lexus GS350 F-Sport Review | Brotherly Reviews

I was finally offered the opportunity to review and commute with one of my "dream' cars - the Lexus GS350 F-Sport! Review and drive. Hope you enjoy!

[@Charlie_Tea]

This is actually my first car in obsidian with peanut butter interior. I've never seen this car before until the day I've bought it. Didn't even know it existed

[@danielproulx7288]

I have a 2015 white with red leather GS350 Fsport RWD 8 speed. I bought it new and I have 35K miles on it. I love this car I am planning on keeping it forever. Best car I have ever owned.

[@pankajmistry4600]

The 2015 is my fav too. I prefer the 6spd auto for aggressive takeoffs. But it looks like the 8spd is no slouch either. Nice review bro!!!

[@nac9845]

Great review thank you hope you get yours

[@David-qt3th]

Great video brother! I have a black on black 2014 F Sport and I absolutely agree with everything you said. Only con I’ve found is the front brakes are expensive to replace. The OEM pads/rotors are actually from a German company and there’s no aftermarket support, so that will set you back about $1k. Even with that I still plan on driving mine till the wheels fall off Lol.

[@Healthylifelex]

I bought my dream car last Monday. L/Certified 2017 Lexus GS 200t Atomic Silver with black interior. I’m the 2nd owner, it just came back from a lease and my car is spotless with 34k miles. I have wanted a GS since I was 15. I’ll be 30 in August. I love cars!!! Thanks for the video.

[@abnernoboa7771]

Great and informative video!

[@BrotherlyReviews]

Thank you brother 🙏🏾

[@DisneyMusicVideos]

These cars are absolutely amazing! I love my white on red 2016 GS350 F-Sport that I bought used four years ago with 41k miles, now with almost 80k miles with no problems so far as expected & not planning on replacing it anytime soon.

You’re welcome 👌🏾

I have two Lexus (SC 430 & the GS 350) and the BOTH have been fabulous. Normal maintenance and that's it. Very nice review, enjoyed it.

My favorite Lexus, hands down. Such a shame they stopped making them 👎🏾

[@plaboy80]

I just bought a 13. I definitely love her man. Beautiful car. I bought mine with 56k one Owner

[@powerfulallah3556]

No problems?

[@Txcowboy80]

Just picked me up a 13 as well. Most comfortable car I have owned to date and I have owned a ton of cars. Has 29k miles one owner. (older family owned it and I have all the records to it).

[@TheHybridQ50S]

This was honestly a good review bro, also admire this car but The 2016 and up.

[@BrotherlyReviews]

always appreciate you bro

[@kingyoung5228]

Really? That's new most people prefer 2013-2015 because in 2016 they had redesign it so it's not as sporty or fast due to emissions or sum shit

[@gswade4368]

King Young it is a matter of preference. Both are sporty, and as fast as each other. I love the 2016+ LED tail lights, but the 2013-2015 front end.

[@thatlexusguy7629]

New subscriber 🔔🔔 Congratulations on your 2015 Lexus GS350 F Sport!! I am honestly a big fan of the Lexus GS where last year I had a 2015 Lexus GS350 F Sport that was in black with the red interior. 2 months ago I decided to sell it and get the hybrid version which is more affordable and great in gas!! I have currently a 2013 Lexus GS450H Luxury and I am really in love in that car. I love the sportiness driving that it has and it has more features than a Lexus ES or IS which refers to the huge navigation screen it has. In the future, my goal is to get my dream car which is a Lexus GS F!!

[@BrotherlyReviews]

Thank you for your support 🙏🏾

[@georgedoughly8682]

An Amazing Car! I love it!

[@oldsklteg]

As TL-S owner my other dream sedan is the outgoing GS-F. I will own that car in the next 5 yrs.

[@BrotherlyReviews]

I wanna get that and do an exhaust mounted twin turbo setup 🤤🤤🤤

[@oldsklteg]

@@BrotherlyReviews that would be a nice setup. I just want a clean white or blue one to take over the role of long distance cruise missile from my TL-S which is almost at 220k miles

[@jayhill4045]

I just traded my white 2015 Gs 350 F sport Awd for my dream car! I picked up a 2016 grey Gs F with 30k miles! I’m in love!

[@brandon6541]

I have this car in Forza it's a great car exactly like yours very nice!

[@georgetabaghua209]

I own also GS but not F and I whant to tell you people that it is greatest car which I have ever driven

[@johnkennedy3663]

Love mine. Almost identical to this with the exception of mine having the Flaxen (dark tan and black) interior - much prettier than plain black IMO.

[@BrotherlyReviews]

Two-tone interiors are always more attractive, in my opinion

[@momtazjee]

cant believe they stopped production on this.

[@BrotherlyReviews]

me toooo! I was so upset when I found out

[@rts6793]

I own a 2019, now regarding the transmission, you need to have it in manual mode, that’s why it wasn’t responding to your up shifts , I learned this from my advisor at the dealer

[@BrotherlyReviews]

I thought I was in manual mode lol I had it in Sport+ and was using the paddles

[@lukasbuslavicius6894]

What is your mpg on city driving? And aprox how much miles you can expect on full tank? thanks.

[@kingyoung5228]

I'm 17 probably gonna get this as my second car on this exact same color and I'm also on Texas what a coincidence lmaoo

[@DirtySouthRider]

Nice car, Is the insurance high on it for full coverage?

[@BrotherlyReviews]

Not really. Don’t remember how much he pays but it’s less than my Acura lol

[@730F-Sport]

I pay 184 through liberty mutual.

[@BrotherlyReviews]

Not bad. I pay 177 for my Acura and ford.

[@Hummer999xx]

Any issue with then engine knocking? I am thinking about buying the regular gs 350. It has about 105k miles. I am concern about reliability.

[@BrotherlyReviews]

No issues at all. It’s a Toyota engine. They’re damn near bulletproof!

[@Abdul-ce6zz]

I came from Lil Ayy

[@BrotherlyReviews]

Thank you!! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@Classical416]

I am new to Lexus. What's the difference between shifting with the paddles and the shift stick? Do they perform the exact functions?

[@BrotherlyReviews]

They do the same thing. More of just a preference, but the paddles serve better in terms of keeping both hands on the wheel instead of removing one hand from the wheel to shift with the lever.

[@mitchellkato9954]

Looking at a 2014 model year and it’s tempting. Luxury and reliable! Idk if I should get it or no 😂😅

[@johnlewis5731]

I’ve owned a 2015 f sport for about a year and a half now and I absolutely love it I feel like a kid every time I get behind the wheel the feeling never gets old! Only down side to the car is the tires don’t last very long you get about 12 k out of the rear depending on how you drive so as a broke college student it hurts my pockets😂

[@mitchellkato9954]

@@johnlewis5731 I’ll keep that noted and I was thinking about waiting to get one of the newer ones. Like 2018-2020. Any thoughts on those years model ?

[@angelbluerider9588]

Did you ever test drive a is350 ? Would you say gs350 is better then is350?

[@BrotherlyReviews]

I’ve driven an IS250. Fun car but too small for me lol

[@tangelomax]

3 years later how is it holding up ? As far as maintenance etc thinking of getting one 2015 GS 350 F sport currently at 93k miles

[@BrotherlyReviews]

It’s been holding up great! Only problem was the oil filter housing needed to be replaced a few months ago, but other than that the car has been extremely solid, and currently sitting at 67k miles.

[@martygreen3145]

Bro! We love your video. But don’t ever compare a Ford to a Lexus. Not Cool there brah. And Ford’s are decent vehicles but nah, 😂 Anyway, I’m looking at the BMW 435 I, 440 I Coupe or Convertible vs that 2015 GS 350 F Sport! The Lexus Reliability, Red or Tan interior, and the Mark Levinson 14 speaker system may be the deal breaker for me.

[@BrotherlyReviews]

Only did the comparison for the turn signals 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@Maliy0204]

Hey man. Just curious as to what you paid for this?

[@BrotherlyReviews]

It’s not my car so I’m not sure how much he paid tbh. He traded in a 2016 Altima SR for it though.

[@wagrj5738]

No mark Levinson and triple led, should ve picked one w those options

[@BrotherlyReviews]

I didn’t know about the triple led?

kinda late but anyone know if the insurance would be high on this car for a teen ??

[@BrotherlyReviews]

Insurance will be high on pretty much any car as a teenager. You’re better off registering the car under your parents and going under your parents’ insurance. That’s what I was doing until I turned 25. Saved alotttt of money.

[@arialvarez5278]

@@BrotherlyReviews but if you crash them insurance won’t cover it because it’ll be under my moms name tho?

[@BrotherlyReviews]

No, you’ll be covered. You’re listed as a driver on the policy.

[@Gowork796]

How much you pay for it

[@BrotherlyReviews]

Not my car, but I’m not sure what the total cost of the car was. He traded in a newer Altima for it and I think he only had to pay 14k

[@razelllamanzares5368]

Go for 2014-15 GS with the 8-speed. Those are the best years. 2013 had a lot of problems from what I’ve been seeing/hearing.

[@BrotherlyReviews]

Personally I would stay away from German vehicles. Maintenance gets very expensive. But the performance is unmatched.

[@truonghthe]

dream car? the car is very attainable. They go for low $20k all day here in Houston. You couldn't give head up when you are in Htown lol. BTW I am living in Htown lol, if you ever buy one of these make sure you aim for the 2014 or later as they come with 8spd gearbox. The 2013 has 6spd gear box.

[@BrotherlyReviews]

Not everybody has 20k laying around lol I hate payments . They go for over 35k here in Florida still. And honestly I thought about making a post on the TL page while I was out there but I was only there for 4 days and had a lot of plans made so I didn’t see there being much time. I’ll be out there again soon 👌🏾 and yes, the 2014+ with the 8at was what I was always looking for from the jump 🙏🏾

Other option not available as well like center armrest, 5spd MT gearbox. 06 GS300 has carbon build up issue and GS430 is new body with old motor. 2007 they came out with 3.5 motor D4s fuel system and the other engine choice is a 4.6L with Aisin 8 AT. 09 ISF has the next gen infotainment system compare to 08 and they are not compatible. 2016 GSF HUD is optional in 2017 its standard. 07 LS460 has valve issue where the 08 got corrected. I don't see Acura/Honda goes through that much drastic change. Trust me I owned a few Lexus as well.
