Lexus GS-F will soon hit the market

2012 Lexus GS-F

Lexus is planning to bring down its big competitors like BMW M5 and Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG with the new F version of the GS model. The GS is the last model from Lexus that will receive the sport version, as the IS has already received it. Lexus want to impress the American market with the aggressive look of the GS-F but also with the fact that this car will feature a big 5.0 l V8 engine that is also mounted on the IS-F. The difference is that the GS-F will have more BHP: 465 to be more precise.
More power was needed as the GS is heavier than the IS, even if the bigger model has been put on a diet: it now weighs about 3,700 lbs (1678 kg). The car can now accelerate from 0 to 60 mph (100 km/h) in just 4.5 seconds. Performance comes with a cost as the new Lexus will probably have a price tag from $90,000 to $100,000.
