I FREAKING love this car and there is something a lot of reviewers forget. The climate control is all Auto and it intensifies on the side the Sun hits on the car and also works for the heated and cooled seats. I this would outright last longer than any S-class or BMW. Awesome review as usual
I love that you include night shots!!! Lets you see the cars from a different perspective and you see the lights and how they all look at night!! Bravo!
There's nothing else on the road that even looks close to or stands out like this car! Damn! Exquisite and exclusivity right here!
Gio S6 Every video I watch I see you in the comments. We clearly like the same content 😂
@@qwezesony2006 That could very well be true man! Hey, we like what we like right👌
@@giofromtexas2679 yes
This is better for hybrid.. if you only with gas it keep getting overheat and broke most the plastic part...
I adore this car, I just wish it had a 5.0 L V8 Lol. That’s why I LOVE my 2008 LS460L
The v6 it has ain't a slouch when you drive it
Yours have 4.6 v8 not 5.0
Kudos to you for showing night mode, not to many reviews do that. PS I would wait for the four to five year depreciation before I would consider it.
OMG! My favorite car reviewer and my favorite car it doesn't get any better. Great in depth review Forrest, quality work as always. Keep up the great work bro.
Impressive review! Quality is definitely on the rise keep up the good work
Those headlights are sick looking!!
Nice video man. I really like the LS 500 F sport. The power drain is so incredible. But in China we do not have this model. We only have LS 350 and LS 500h. What a shame
so comprehensive! so many details!
Beautiful ride. 30 MPG on the highway is really impressive! I'm with you on the rear amenities, though. For $102k, they should at least have peasant blockers in the rear windows.
I heard the 2022 version has all the pheasant blockers standard
Appreciate and love the review bro I will say this on some of the comfort features most of the time you're going to window tint the vehicle anyway and will probably never use sun shades. You won't fully loaded go with a higher trim level💯👍👍
Just got mine...I love it!!
Yeah.. on a lease..
lovely review!
Nice crispy video. Greeting from the Netherlands
this is a nice car, thanks for the review.
Great review!
Yeah man top notch..luv it Japanese flagship 👍🏾👍🏾worth every penny
In Dubai the fully loaded one comes with TVs massage heated and cooled in back !
Last time I was in Cleveland 1982 i had a great cup of soup👍 I would totally get that package!
This is one mighty fine car. But it would be so much nicer with the glass inserts rather than the aluminium one...I also would prefer the non f-sport as I feel it suits the car more. The f-sport grill seems to cheapen the look of the car a fair bit I feel.
Lexus much better & bullet proof than mercedes
Have u ever owned a benz?
Yes, it is
@@suhailahmed4449 i owned one, the e-class diesel, and i decided to change the car because it was always broked down, and now i have the GS who never broke down with almost 190.000km
Beautiful car! But, Lexus could have done better with the ambient lighting, Merc nails it! That red interior look awful should be darker red.
I really like the POV driving in this video. What camera do you have for that?
@@forrestsautoreviewsofficial Thanks.
The LS sounds fantastic and not fake or monotone, stop picking on the beautiful handsome and aggressive LS .And I think it’s a good idea to pipe in the engine notes for more driving excitement listening to the revs and shifts in Gears
I got mine.. used.. 2018 F Sport for $71k out of Maryland. Fully loaded without the executive rear package. Which i didnt want or need anyway. Same color as well -) I get more questions asked and head turns than any mercedes, audi or bmw on the road as not many people have this car in my area. Actually, never seen one around my area yet.
Ton of them in Chicago. Beautiful car!! I immediately notice it when I see it on the road.
IBeWhipNYoAzz I’ve seen the 2018 for as low as $58 grand already
In Orange County I thought the Asian community would gobble this up but I’ve only seen 1 in Irvine. Mercedes, BMW, and Range Rover galore over here. I actually thought this wasn’t fully released yet until I saw this video today and it’s November 2019. Lots of other Lexus models every like IS, RX, ES in OC.
You should have reviewed the top of the line LS with all the extra options - Full Massage seats, Kiriko Glasswork with hand-folded Alcantara door panel, right rear full recliner, rear center console control, etc.
with all that being said ~ and still Toyota Camry 😁
PL888 中美日 - Then the Camry is better than an Audi, Mercedes, and BMW. Sure. 😉
@@PL888HIToyota better quality then all German cars only difference is the reputation and price
Do you have a review on the 2019 ES 350 F Sport? I can’t find it.
So quiet inside, especially the hybrid.
THIS CAR IS REALLY SICK IN WHITE! F-SPORT
Lexus offers a special backseat package (because China) that has everything you could imagine. Also, the F type is an appearance only package, there are no differences in the suspension tuning.
Take a look at the European/ Australia versions. It’s so much better than our US version. They have better color options and HAS dual rear dvd screens, rear seat sun screen, etc. I dont understand why they left out those options on the North American markets.
Lexus is coming out with a 600hp engine! Love to see they'll place it in this car!!!!
When???
2022 and still no 600HP 😂
Sound of the car seems to be purposefully held back probably because its still a flagship luxury sedan. Can't get that loud, would be what LSF is for.
They should have fog lights. Looks better at night.
Quite a few empty button switches on the lower dash and console shifter area on a flagship Lexus.
It deserves an inline 6 diesel petrol plus V8 turbos to compete
I have a 2005 LS and have those missing features in the rear seats such as heated and cooled seats, reclining seats and sunshades. Plus everything else that you mentioned. Funny, they took those away? Maybe it only comes in a certain package.
Maybe they come/not come on certain markets? Here in Europe they are rare, bur always have heated rear seats and automatic side shades
Can u get the ls500 f sport with the executive package in the back seats?
This sport trim should have higher psi for the turbos, like 20psi
My 2015 Genesis has manual rear side shades and Heads Up Display. This is why I traded my 2014 GS F Sport.
Lol
I'm almost certain that the heated rear seats and sunshades are exclusive to the ultra luxury models not the F sport models... I think I'm not too sure haha
You sir are correct. As my F Sport, which is the same color combine as he test drives, doesnt need tor come with that package I believe. But TRUST ME, you will get heads turning and questions asked about this car! haha
@@sleyzfury4012 True... Folks loving my LS
No one does Ambient light better than german
I totally agree with you but only thing bad about that when that ambient light 💡 goes to it's very expensive too fix
What phone are you using to record this?
it's not a phone 1:47
this TwinTurbo v6 should be in new Supra along with new light rwd platform that they are going to put in upcumming Lexus is.
For bmw 550i xdrive money might as well upgrade and get this car instead
550i costs alot less then 102k
S. Bor Lol righ... this is like 750/850d money
Where is the rear seat entertainment system?
Phew! 100k. For what it is though, not terrible
Song name at 0:15?
Stunningly beautiful? ABSOLUTELY!
Cramped, loud engine, no toe space, no head room, unluxurious ride and terrible controls? Yes! Lexus needs to fix this!
I wonder if anybody used a compass just once in life, especially in a car
It's alright
2 weeks ago I looked at a 2018 LS500 at my Lexus dealer. 16,500 miles. Sadly, it's interior had issues, the center armrest was broken, letting me see how it was made. Cheap plastic. To say I was disappointed is an understatement. To be fair, it was in the backlot, just taken in off lease. The armrest will be repaired, but, ugh. It had other issues due to the crappy leasee, rear bumper was very obviously damaged, and a number of scrapes down the sides. Again, I'm sure the dealer will address everything, but it left me disappointed.
You’re a liar and the truth ain’t in you….
I have never driven Lexus nor Toyota. Are they qualitatively different? Or is it just a brand value that’s making the difference in pricing?
There is a quality difference Lexus is priced up market Toyota is more midrange economical
Francis Fernandes So you can tell right off the bat what’s Lexus and Toyota soon as you take one for a ride cuz the former is definitely more upscale, having better ride quality, right?
@@junsevens go check out both 2019 Lexus ES 350 and Toyota Camry V6
Put it this way, u need a minimum 10 years of Toyota work experience before entering the lexus segment.
Yes, it's disappointing to know that a luxury Lexus flagship sedan has no heated/ventilated seats and sun shade. I think you need to option it which is ridiculous. One thing I am not fan of is the Lexus steering wheel styling it's so basic but the exterior look is beautiful.
Johnny Tampocao same thing I said. That steering wheel looks so plain and doesn’t fit the car, and I think the interior could use some extra styling like the exterior. Otherwise this is a very striking car in person.
Remove that orange Passenger Airbag light, JEEZ
its 2 speakers in the roof not 3 one of them is a mic !!
The extra glass pane in the c-pillar looks very strange. Like the rear door was designed to fit in an estate/wagon for a European -only model.
Cant wait till its worth $25k used in 6 years 😁
Honest to god I want one in red
Lexus’s don’t depreciate like that lmao
In 15 years i am gonna buy this with 4k €
ᴍᴀx you can get a 2016 Lexus LS for $35k, so yeah they do depreciate like that.
@@B9Max LS models tend to depreciate faster, in 6 years this will be about 30k-35k with 100,000+ miles which is nothing for a Lexus. Can't wait haha
Super!
Wow, What a nice Toyota Camry !!!
PL888 中美日
This shares absolutely nothing with a Camry, it’s got its own engine, it’s own platform, and is build in a completely different factory.
It's an fsport that's y it does not have the items that u was looking for the regular ls500 l or ls500 has every thing u wanted
Please use a gimbal
I have to say, for a $100,000 sedan, I am a little underwhelmed. It is missing a lot to me for a car that is supposed to compete with the s class. I would buy an S Class over this LS. The exterior is beautiful and it does have impressive features on it. It is fast and turns nicely also. I would think that the Mercedes Benz S Class would have more features on this than the LS does.
Edit: I would expect to get a V8 egine for this price because you can get a Chrysler V8 for a lot less.
The base S class has a V6 engine (the S450). You can upgrade to a V8 engine (the S560) but it will cost a lot more. The V12 engine models can run up to $200k, so you can't compare the V12 Benz with this LS
@@armoplaya323 You are right. Well, if Lexus wants to compete with the whole S-Class lineup, they should release a V12 LS, if they haven't already.
@@DiecastShowcase or at least a V8 version
People choose the LS over Benz when they want reliability and not having to have an M-B Master Tech with his computer move into their guest room.
I would never buy a German car over a Lexus. I don't like the race car stocky feel, and I don't want spend costly repairs like one usually do on German cars.
19:07. U r right. No excuse for less features. Fsport is more like Fstupid. They think that s as long as they throw the useless term “sport” in the name they can fool enough customers into being satisfied with less. And that engine is TO DAMN LOUD.
Not compare to S-class. Maybe E class, but only Maybe.
its sharper than s class, better driving car, its pure quality car and its more reliable as well..still much respect for s class
Unreliable? Seems you never have owned one! They are at its best! Beside Porsche most reliable cars i ever pocessed!
Why did lexus change the entire ls line up into basically a sports car. They already have a sports car in their line up. I have owned 5 ls and the ride in this one is harsh on bumpy roads. Because of the state of this countrys infrastructure i shall hold on to my 2017 its much quieter and smoother engine and cabin.
Angry Vacuum Cleaner hahahha
I love the car but it's too long 205" in length.
Mua Lan that’s the whole point
This was a great car until they introduced the new ES which looks exactly the same and costs $35,000+
ES looks nothing like this, go get your eyes checked dummy
ES doesn’t even come close to this in terms of looks, power, smoothness, comfort, luxury, road presence. ES is based on the Camry, LS on the other hand is something else.
This car's lines scream for 21"s ASAP!
No ambient night light yet going to skip and get a merc s class
What? No heated or Cooled seats and no side window screens and rear seats that don't recline. I thought that this was a Top of The Line Lexus. I don't believe that this is on par with Mercedes, BMW, Audi
happy welshguy I don’t think that option is available on the F Sport edition. There’s an executive edition that has a fully reclining seat on the passenger side.
First of all ... this is the F sport model... that’s why it doesn’t have the side shades , cooled and heated seats soooooooooooooo.... and btw the engine sound isn’t synthetic... that’s the sound of the intake ... dude u r cool but but u should’ve checked the other specs before u test the F SPORT model
Ur voice we can’t hear it during the key scene
I think I know your secret identity forester. Sound awfully familiar to a favorite tv reviewer of mine. R you into the samsung q90r at all....hmmmm. you never see his face because he wears a deadpool mask so you have to spend more attention to his voice. Quantum!?
Why do you have to say Japanese coolest sedan??If it was a Mercedes,BMW it Audi,will you say Germany coolest sedan??You guys need to be fair with your reviews. Lexus are better than German cars anyday.
This motor should have been in the new SUPRA! 🤦🏻♂️
@Joshua Jacob atleast you understand that. Most people would say the RC with it's V6 or have a Lexus motor in the Supra. The smoother Inline 6 is the way to go for the Supra
Nah I would rather take the lc500 instead or gsF.
tommy13965 don’t compare GS to LS. LS is the ultimate Asian sedan. Oh and the Genesis G90 too.
lucas huang why not Gs F is not cheap has a v8 with over 400 hp but I would rather take the LC over both.
@@tommy13965HP don't mean anything in ultra luxury class. everything is about comfort. quietness and ride quality. not sure why you even mention LC because your comparing apple to orange. LS460 competes against S class. 7 series and the new Genesis G90.
lucas huang not comparing just saying I prefer the other 2 if I were to spend around 80k.
Nate Barry ?
Silly to have a v6... it needs more power.
.....but it makes more than the old V8....
@@forrestsautoreviewsofficial well, why not a v8 making like a v10?
The grill looks the worst on the RX and the best on the LS
lmao our rx has heated seats and sun shade
Fusion Beat every Lexus has heated and cooled seats lol. My ES has power sunshade
DIAMLER I’m talking about the rear seats not front
Probably the slowest $100,000 car you buy. Lexus really messed up here.
If I'm spending $100K, I'm not gonna want a Turbo V6. And it sounds horrible. No cap.
@Joshua Jacob yeah Lexus hasn't updated its GSF in forever. It doesn't even have AppleCarplay or any Collision avoidance features. A Camry has better tech than a 2019 GSF.
Just, this is a cruiser and not a sport car. And people who buy this gey driven and don't really care about the sound of the engine. Cheers😂😂
The current generation Audi A8 has a twin turbo V6 with less horsepower than this. The Mercedes S450 is underpowered as well. Did you complain about those cars too?
@@alwaysiyi272 Really ? LEXUS Is tarnishing its F-SPORT badge in that case.
@@IceColdKilax F-sport is kind of like Mercedes' AMG line and BMW's M-sport package. You get the styling and badging AMG and M models have but not the performance.
The ambient lighting at night isn't as good as the BMW or Mercedes s class
No remote start...please not worth a 100,000
better than s class
Kidney anyone
I'll buy this car if it was free.
You can buy an m5 for that money which crushes this Lexus in every way
If you want a smaller sportier car. And don't care about reliability. Then that might do it for you
A grandad car
But the yakuza won't buy it
They would rather buy a toyota vellfire
If you think this Japanese luxury sedan is lacking things then what do you think of american cars. Americans are good at schooling others but they suck at what they are doing.
Lexus over pos german cars anyday!!!!
Germans car shits on Lexus everyday
@@aryans4519 Lexus /Acura is for people who want a fine balance between performance and luxury. bmw is mainly performance with touches of luxury. Mercedes is essentially the same as Acura / Lexus but beefed up in every category except reliability. Reliabilty kills German cars in the American market.
Sssoy.
Not in the league of the 3 Germans
Right? By far surpasses them
Especially in being reliable the germans are at. The bottom
Nice, but stupidly overpriced!
LuisManuelHdez compared to competitors not really..
I would have loved the total review rather than at the 5 minute 25 minute Mark having a commercial and now you've lost me I don't think I'll watch any more of your videos with commercials
No one needs you
It's called an advertisement. This man has to work for a living and pay taxes to support your "sedentary lifestyle." The only way he gets paid is if there are ads.
C V T
It can beat the bmw but not the s class
Save yourself the gas money. Get a Tesla.
I would rather buy the hybrid version .I get reliability, style, and excellent dealer support without getting fucked. My issue with Tesla is the monopolization of repairs ; that is not for me .
