2013 Lexus GS 350 F-Sport


The Lexus GS 350 F-Sport has an appearance that looks like it would rival the BMW M5. Though, the aggressive styling and detailing may be misleading; its 306-horsepower and 277 pounds of torque would only compete with the twin-turbocharged BMW 335i or the Infiniti G37.
It is a true sports sedan with rear-wheel drive system and a zero to 60 time in about 5.5 seconds. This acceleration allows the GS 350 F-Sport to complete the quarter-mile in about 14.0 seconds. The only sport aspect the car lacks is a stick. Instead, the car is equipped with a six-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters. It delivers a decent 19 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway.
The base price for the 2013 Lexus GS 350 F-Sport starts at $53,465.



The Lexus comes with an active rear-steering system, which allows sharper cornering. Also, the suspension is adjustable to a Sport+ mode for stiffer and more sportier handling. The sedan scores an impressive 0.91 g's of grip. Thus, the GS 350 F-Sport handles like a charm. It also decelerates from 60 to zero in 105 feet.
