So we got a 2013 Lexus GS 450h F-Sport hybrid


Truth be told, we weren’t fans of the Lexus GS 350 we drove earlier this year.

Let’s face it, we didn’t have high expectations for the 2012 Lexus GS. We never drove the old model, which was never taken seriously anyway, and we didn’t like the way the new model looked in pictures, like a photoshopped Honda Accord. But then we started hearing good things about it in the foreign press, like how it was somehow better than the BMW 5-Series and the Mercedes-Benz E-Class.
