Lexus GS (S140/S160): The Japanese philosophy of speed and luxury

Back in 1983, Toyota's president, Eiji Toyoda, set out to develop the world's best car, codenamed Flagship-1 and released in 1989 as the luxury sedan Lexus LS, which shook up the Germans and their luxury car market!
However, it's worth noting that the LS wasn't launched alone; it debuted alongside the lower-tier Lexus ES, which was essentially a rebadged Toyota Camry Prominent or Vista. The ES had a rather mediocre and even dull design, coupled with front-wheel drive, which further distanced it from competing with anything premium, but today, let's talk about the car positioned between these two models: the Lexus GS!

The 2006.5/2007 is by far my favorite model! I wish could find a good condition 400h. Great video!

Oh yeah, the third gen GS seem great too, although I'd prefer the 2nd one, either way, great cars, thanks for the comment!

@@RedLine_Car_Show absolutely are. Only weakness is suspension and high mileage automatic transmissions.
