Perhaps to take some attention away from a certain leaked sports car, Lexus has announced pricing on the all new, fourth-generation 2013 Lexus GS 350 and it is exactly the same price as the last generation: $47,775 including an $875 destination fee.
The 2013 GS 350 goes on sale in February and comes with bi-xenon headlights, LED daytime running lights and a 3.5-liter V6 making 306 horsepower and 277 pound-feet of torque. The all-wheel drive model will start at $50,325 -- a price hike of $600.
Pictured is the 2013 Lexus GS 350 F Sport which gets F Sport-tuned adaptive suspension, F Sport 19-inch wheels, F Sport badging and will add $5,690 to the price of the GS 350.
Other options priced out on the GS include a $5,750 luxury package which gives you variable suspension, adaptive lighting, espresso wood trim, 18-way power front seats, 18s and a wood-and-leather steering wheel; A $1,400 premium package with rain sensing wiper and heated/ventilated steats and; and a $1,735 navigation system.
No pricing was announced for the GS hybrid.

Is Lexus trying to compete with Acura for the ugliest nose award? YIKES!

Interesting that the front end, head on, looks like Honda's VFR1200 moto

Unlike some, I don't find the exterior looks offensive, although the interior look doesn't appeal to me. If this generation can comfortably seat a driver taller than 5 ft 8 in, and if it has some actual steering feel and precision, it is an improvement over the previous generations of GS.

I don't get the "camry" comments. Obviously some are clueless as to the platforms these cars ride on.

Agreed with silverscion1 - the front end doesn't look stylish nor functional
I'm sure it'll be a nice car, but I can't see how anyone can look at the Audi A6, the BMW 5-series, and a Mercedes E350 then decide to go with a GS350.

The ES is a Camry in a cheap tux. The GS is its own car.

IF you've ever owned the rivals of the Lexus out of warranty, it's VERY easy to see why you would buy the Lex.

$5k less than a 535i
$3k less than a E350
And will drive better than BOTH!

I'm not a fan of the nose, but from what I've read that sounds like not a bad price for the car. It certainly is a big improvement over the outgoing car, so keeping the price the same is pure added value.

$10K more than a "overpriced" SHO.
