- 2019 Lexus GS F Review by The Straight Pipes. With 467hp and 389lb-ft of torque from a naturally aspirated V8 engine, this aging GS F is a gem in the world of turbo's and hybrid's. But at $100,050, there are a lot of other options with more horsepower. Would you take it over the Mercedes-AMG E63, BMW M5, Lexus LC500?

What do you think of the Lexus GS F? Would you take it over the Mercedes-AMG E63, BMW M5, Lexus LC500?
TheStraightPipes whhhaaaaaaaaaatttttttt
I would definitely take the lexus, i know toyota/lexus often take a long time to really upgrade their models, but i don't care! There's something about driving japanese sports cars that just feels natural
Here is my list M5 second GS F then LC 500
Would take rs5 over this
Always would
Im buying one. Don't give a crap its not the best car ever. Good day!
I highly encourage this purchase - Jakub
savagegeese but this car needs proper oil maintenance! This ain’t no Honda! PS. Sorry to hear about your recent accident; hope you’re doing well still!
You might like my civic better ;)
@@rubinixcube8866 Dang, did not hear about Mr Goose's accident. Sure hope that he's ok.
FX he posted it on social media just a few days ago. His Civic was tboned at a decent speed (crumpled most of the driver side) but thankfully he came out without injury. Damn, gotta love those Civics. EDIT: okay, he does complain of chest pains in that video. instagram.com/p/B5BD1KjnLKs/
3:58 you can go in the settings and lower the sensitivity which makes the joystick heavier. Never seen a reviewer figure this out.
Yes you can. If I remember correctly, it has 5 different settings for sensitivity
Yeah i have no problems with the mouse control, I find it very intuitive to use.
Does it work on a 2015 gs350?
The engine sounds nasty, in a good way. Crazy how Toyota still makes this gem of a motor. Yuri, how could you not like that noise!?
bought 2016 used CPO at dealer. Chris Harris vetted its fully useable performance; Dougie advocated stellar used buy. Climate sys and stereo easy to use real buttons. As for the infotainment, fixable with a $600 part to get Apple Carplay and what CarToys estimated was $300-$600 labor. When I care, I'll do it. Meanwhile, I'll be able to own it long after warranty (owned LS-400 and still own LS-430). Only thing is wrapping my head around handling of such a big vehicle when I am used to Porsche 911 and Boxster. Canyon roads early am and that torque vectoring diff coming up soon. BTW, manual mode is really manual. Put into ECO mode on hwy yet left it in 8th to stop it hunting gears, but when a passing gap opened and I floored it, well, nice sounds but not much oomph because 60 MPH in 8th gear. I'll probably drive this to retirement in 13-15 years. Gas prices? I only drive 5,000 miles a year anyway.
Lol “peasant blockers” I laughed way to hard at that 😂
I can’t believe people regularly watch your videos without subscribing. I’ve always thought you should have way more subscribers than what you currently have.
Feeling like I’m part of an exclusive club right now.
The great Lexus reliability gives the owner great confidence knowing it will always be reliable from new to when the car is old.
Jakub and Yuri: Gives proper Canadian not mad, but disappointed look, "We see the stats guys... we know you're watching with out subscribing and notifying..." User looks around: hangs head in shame and subscribes.
The Gs-F performance with the Es interior
Lexus is just such a great company I love their N/A 5.0, people don’t get that they’re less about out and out performance it’s about comfort and fun the numbers don’t matter in a Lexus
7:41 and the leaf is stucked in the grill 😁
I find its amazing how quickly you guys grew! When I started subscribing, you were on 200k! Well done
EDIT: I'm talking about the channel that is, obviously Yuri didn't literally grow :(
My face hair grew
We really need an lc500 review guys 👍if yo with me
So authentic to see Yuri scratching his itchy back into the lexus seat :-)
It'll be nice to have a M5 which is slightly more manageable and starts everyday!!! I'm so buying one!!!
Great review, and thanks for mentioning reliability which is what matters in a car that you will daily drive it. Lexus any day!

@@kristians2704 😂 😂 😂
Been waiting so long for this😭 dream cruiser machine!
It takes mature taste to enjoy these cars. I have an IS300 and a GS300, hopefully I can get a GS F before the GS line is discontinued and prices start going up.
I'm thinking of buying one just like this...Ultrasonic Blue Mica...maybe a 2018. I am saving my pennies.
Take out a loan at 1.9%. Don't lose all liquidity paying cash, that's what morons do.
That Mission impossible reference was hilarious!
The car is absolutely beautiful and aggressive looking at the same time.
For me a bit too expensive so I may keep my Camry as my daily and replace my S2000 with a two door version the RC-F, but this would be way more practical I think.
And the Lexus quality.... what is there to say. It is the best. I used to have an IS300. I sold it at 254k miles so somebody else could enjoy it.
If I could get over the used price and having this as my only car, I would do it.
You guys should def review the LC500
Like the IS-F, the GS-F and RC-F wont be appreciated until they’re gone. First tier attention to detail, first tier quality, and first tier luxury. Not as fast as it’s direct rivals, but much more more charismatic.
No doubt my next car will be an IS-F with low miles or a low mile 2020 RC-F.
The fact that it’s a lexus, N/A V8 engine, RWD and it’s reliable as tank I can over look all it’s tech faults
Would you guys ever consider reviewing an Abarth 500? I know it's not very popular in North America but it's a very quirky and fun hot hatch
You’re videos are awesome
Get the Gulia Quadrafolio on here next!!!
I have no issue with my BMW turn signal stalk. I don't understand how people forget their turn signal is still on...Either you see the arrow flashing in the display or at least check it you need to tap it again...people should know their own cars.....i just use the light tap and it goes off after 3 flashes when changing lanes for example. It's not that hard.
Peasent blockers... 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Never grows old😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Nothing better than a N/A V8 in a sedan! Fuck turbocharging. Wouldn't mind a biturbo c63 though. Or a supercharged e55
I really like this car, but I struggle with its lack of features & infotainment system. I just really like technological gadgets. It’s competition has much more to offer in that department. So idk. Tough call
Great car for daily. Never have to worry of it crapping out on you. But I do love the LS500 a bit better for a big car.
Videos started just now, like it now anyway.
are you guys going to review the 2020 alfa romeo giulia?
and keep up the good work
I love it. Lexus does it again. Reliable
Damn, I forgot the GS still existed, lol!
Yes!
I wish you guys could review a 79 series V8 Land Cruiser
Drifting or sliding, sport sedan or luxury sedan furthermore estate or saloon
Kinda wanna unsubscribe the more they beg but good content is good content
M5, E63, then Lexus.
I love your videos. Amazing just brilliant. But I feel disconnected. I love seeing these awesome Powerful and luxurious cars. But the majority of your fans can't afford these cars. Just like me. I found your channel because of your Kia Rio review. Which I now have.
I feel your reviews can cater to car enthusiasts and your average consumer.
I really think you should start making videos on more affordable cars.
I hope you don't take this in a bad way as I love your videos but you guys are the best on TH-cam for car reviews and I think it would will help.
Thank you.
Last week was a used gti for under $10,000
@@TheStraightPipes there's a big difference between a used golf GTi that does 15mpg to a family hatchback or a affordable saloon or sedan as you call it in your part of the world.
Lexus GS F vs. Charger Hellcat? which would you rather have?
I love how the Lexus just doesn’t give a damn about the german horsepower competition
Steve Jovan i guess u shud be looking at their world wide stats. Lexus sells twice more than mercedes bmw audi together combined. I drive a merc, I would love to get a lexus
So you love something that doesn’t evolve or improve over time
Steve Jovan this is frm stats my friend u can google it out check lexus as a brand they just simply outsell all germans
@@adilsulfiqar in 2014 Lexus sold 584.000 units, while BMW sold 1.811.719 units. -numbers are from wikipedia
Reliability is really a thing for long term.
Does it bother anyone else that there is always a leaf stuck in the grill
Nature in Canada got to represent dawg! Lol j/k
It’s a delicious snack for the car for being a good girl.
Landon Olson i didnt even notice till i seen this comment
I leaf in a grill in nearly every review... I’m guessing it’s a Canadian thing.
Yes! I was about the say the same thing.
That car will last a lifetime !! No turbo , supercharger ... just a good old V8
V8s are amazing. The GS430 had one too.
BMW: I6, V8 TT, V10, V12
Audi: I4, I5, V6, V8, V10, V12
Mercedes: I6. V6 TT, V8 TT , V12 TT
Supercharged engines actually can be very reliable. You might need to replace the supercharger eventually but they're good.
@@Dance1617 Like with most things on a car, you just got to take care of it and maintain it properly.
Never mind the fact that it’s a Toyota/Lexus engine, so it’ll run forever either way.
There is no replacement for displacement. And this is coming from an import enthusiast. The displacement is so good for everyday livability, its so smooth and quiet. I dont even mind the terrible gas mileage.
It’s better then all it’s competition for the sole reason that nothing will ever go wrong with it
Good point. But, since most of these cars will be leased, ppl don't care about reliability since that's on the dealer.
Oh something WILL go wrong with it. Owners will get so mad at the infotainment system they'll eventually throw something heavy and hard at it and it'll break stuff.
This car is basically Japanese E39 M5. And it’s 5.0 V8 is the main reason why I bought as my daily.
Than*
Its*
Until they have a headlight blow out and it’s not covered by the warranty anymore
please do an lc 500 review
"that is the sexiest car alive"
-jakub 2019
The convertible just came out. That wins sexiest car alive now
Please do the LC guys
@@TheStraightPipes Pls do an lc500 performance pack review, plsssssssssssssss
Omg defo!! It is stunning!
I have a video of the Scottish LC500 if you want to check it out?
th-cam.com/video/dCtRee5rxbM/w-d-xo.html
Review the LC500!!! In person the car is stunning. Undoubtedly the best looking coupe at the moment.
I’d still pick the Lexus because I would be daily driving it
It's 100k... It's actually worth less than 40k... For that money you could get well... Take your pick... Almost anything else and it will be better as long as it's over 35k and under 100k...this thing is pure shit.
if you like 9mpg enjoy..
The GSF is like 80k, and most dealers are selling for less than that, you can get them for 65-70 new.
V1ralB1ack nah man. u cannot forget maintenance cost and repair. sure its expensive but it’ll last forever and u still get that sweet na v8
Best DD you can get and still take to the canyons on the weekend
I LOVE this car!! Yes it's outdated, but there's nothing like it anymore... The last of it's kind :(
There's nothing like it because no one wants it. The power figures are weak as fuck an A45 will smash it and is cheaper than it. All from a 2 litre engine.
@@FrozenDung Exactly. Needs at least 100 more hp.
Mikey okay, but in a 0-100,000 mile competition, guess who’s most likely to win without trouble?
@@FrozenDung Cool and how many races have you won? How many trophies do you have? For most of us its about enjoying what you drive. That's it. Any more HP is literally pointless on the street. Pointless for tire wear. And certainly pointless for useable performance when you can't go full throttle for more than a few seconds. Unless you're on the track often, which btw, plenty of broken German missiles around, there is literally no point. Last track day I went to, no Merc BMW Audi came close to passing and one of the M3's came apart on the track. Doesn't say a lot for German engineering.
@@FrozenDung yeap only track people care about horsepower and speeds, to most people it's about the driving sensation the v8 engine gives, the sound, the high revs
I love Lexus , unbeatable reliability and Luxury at the same time 👏👏👏
'meruca
-Ford GT: turbo V6
-Ford Mustang: electric
Japan: *hold my V8*
Ecoboost
Ford Mustang GT - N/A 5.0L V8
Ford Shelby GT350 - N/A 5.2L V8
Ford Shelby GT500 - S/C 5.2L V8
Ford F-150 - N/A 5.0L V8
When you're so late to the game that you're win simply by because everyone else already went home.
Japan: Hold my sake
Finally a Lexus review!!! I hope Lexus Canada lets you guys review the LC500!
We've been asking for one for a while. The new convertible looks nice
"It's like 5 steps above dad fast" LMAO
And won't breakdown as well
So this car is
fast
Comfortable
Japanese
Reliable
And I need 4 seater
Fun 😋
GSF, RCF, and maybe GTR are the only ones I consider trading in my ISF for.
Most likely an RCF
Ehh isf>rcf
@@shutupishful sure ISF is faster as mine is FBO. but GSF is more practical in space wise and I could use them at some point down the road
Idiosyncrasy yeah im just saying i would rather keep the isf over the rcf but i would definitely trade for the gsf.
Oh my bad, I read it as gsf on your comment instead of rcf ahaha
Why not a used LC500?
Im hoping they make an ISF in the next gen shape. I just feel a smaller, lighter and more agile car with the same powertrain is more ideal
OfficialMINIm I agree
This comment aged well
@@AliasProductions801 IS500 so beautiful
Oooorrr the Alfa Romeo Guila Quadrifolio which you STILL haven’t reviewed!
Smaller.
The alfa, the gt500, the new vette, any dodge v8, the civic type r... All are better than this and some are less than half the price...
go watch savagees's review in the meantime
V1ralB1ack found the moron y’all^^
I like how Yuri mouths Jakob's lines in the intro. lol
Jakob did the same lol.
Maybe that's how they always getting in the car so synchronized.
For future interested buyers: I traded in a 2017 BMW 340i mSport for 2016 GS F. I've not regretted that decision one bit... so much faster and stable into corners, sounds better, more responsive at high speeds. While the entertainment system is nothing like BMW's, I've gotten used to using Lexus enform system...it does the job but you will get frustrated with it.
This car isn't much to look at, but I kind of like how much of a sleeper this thing is. Plus, the legendary reliability never hurts with a car like this.
The GS F is one of the last cars with the NA V8!
FINALLY A LEXUS!!! Great review guys, I love this car
Great review! As an owner for two years with my 2017 GSF I would say most of the review is spot on! I enjoyed this review as much as the one Chris Harris gave on the GSF.
It also tracks very well and extremely fun!
Although the tech felt horrible at first, but after a month of getting used to it it's actually pretty good. I actually prefer it over my 2016 Audi TTs.
Too bad you guys didn't review my car 2 years ago when we met at Erin Mills and 401 at timmies meet XD.
This thing is beautiful..
This Yuri man doesn't like intake sounds from a N/A V8 smfh
"that's going to be a no from me dawg" LOL best line in any SP video
I just finished watching the Tesla cybertruck and now watching this.. it's like two different universes, and I live in both , love where the auto industry is in
You can literally feel their excitement when a car passes the VISOR TEST!
Are you a real fan if you didn’t set an alarm to watch this early?
That is a sad comment!
Looking forward for more Toyota and Lexus Car reviews! Lexus RX, IS, Highlander and many more !
Same here
I'm so mad. The ISF used to be price at 20k-25k on the used market when I was in high school... 2 years have passed, I graduated highschool and I've been saving some money to purchase one however they're now priced on average of 30k+
Yeah I could have kept my ISF and made money on it lol
*yuri drives any car
Yuri: I like this car, I’m more of a bright yellow convertible guy with no trunk space
I might buy this model when it's a decade old collecting dust at a lexus used car section of the lot with 50k miles on it since the GS is being discontinued. Everyone is buying SUVs now.
Good luck, a decade from now it'll be appreciating in value like clean isfs are now. Probably even more so as NA v8s will be gone for good and bullshite government mandates will have every new car be a hybrid of some sort.
He said that’s going to be a no for me dawg😂😎!
Car is still nice engine awesome!
theres no way toyota doesn't have the budget to get an infotainment system to rival ze germans. also wtf japan has always been known for tech. just get sony to do it
I'd take a Lexus over any German junk. Seriously, as long as my phone bluetooth's to the infotainment I'm gooood. V8 all the way.
It's also crazy that the GSF depreciates less than any of it's competitors. Good luck buying a used one with reasonable mileage for "cheap". They're still well over 40 grand a decade later.
as someone in the market for a GSF, you are right, but just want to point out they've only been around since 2016.
I just checked the prices on one of the biggest German websites. They have only 10 GSFs and they are around 60K EURO each. I don't know if this is good or bad because if the used price is too high there will be fewer buyers (if any at all) but maybe this is good for a better financing deal with the dealership.
@@bkhan_ if you include gs350's (I was looking for one for my dad) the depreciation is skewed up even MORE. Couldn't find a GS under 30k that has low miles. Ended up with an Accord coupe v6.
And yeah the GSF has been out for 4 years but compare to the same e63s that started at 30k more they're about the same price. Or heck the ISF and the LS 460's are still expensive AF only cause of the V8.
@@aquaphoenixx Lexus holds value harder than most cars. Lexus owners also rarely sell or trade their cars. They hold them for years. Have an ES350 5 years old...still haven't lost half it's value.
The tom's exterior accessory is a must on this car to make it looks like what it should look like from the factory
? can you clarify please? New GSF owner here, but I'm a 911/Boxster fan and know little of Lexus besides my LS sedans...
@@computerhelpcc Congrats! tom's is a Japanese aftermarket parts company specialize on Lexus and Toyota. Their exterior parts are hit or miss from time to time. But usually look good on last-gen lexus, especially their fender inserts.
Does any body notice the Canadian leaf 🍁 stuck on the grill for long time🍁🤣🤣🤣
Sad they're discontinuing the GS because it's one of my favourite new Lexus products
I’m one of the few on here that actually own a GSF. Reliability, rarity and naturally aspirated were my concerns. I don’t give a shit about infotainment or horsepower I can’t use.
hows it drive? saw a blue one recently, its badass
Same here, I own one but I can honestly say its kind of sad that its just a v8 camry.
I have an RCF carbon/TVD. Best car I could hope for. I considered both GSF and RCF before I bought. I liked the 4 doors on the GSF, but RCF exterior, stiffer, smaller size and lighter dynamics swayed me in the RCF direction.
Yes! You finally reviewed my attainable dream car! I'm buying a used one in 2021...goals!
Nope. It competes with the M550i, S6, E53AMG
You said something about an oil can? You think I need that if don’t track the car at all? I’m keeping my GSF forever.
“I’m not a subtle person”
“Ohhhh of course”
Hahah epic moment.
I don’t think the straight pipes are Lexus guys anymore. 😂 Too many supercars have spoiled them
I would take a GS F over a M5 and E63 any day 💪🏼
For sure. Once you reach a certain level of HP/TQ there's really nowhere you can enjoy it on public roads. Looks like this is right at that line and has Toyota reliability.
It’s so well balanced, it handles great, it has better steering than either the M5 and E63, it rides very well, and it’ll be really reliable. I also like the way it looks. Plus, it’s naturally aspirated!!
Simple rule of thumb:
Buy the Japanese, lease the germans
me too
Then you’re crazy
"It isn't totally a competitor, but it exists" sounds like the Porsche Taycan's attitude toward Tesla lol
what if we made the entire front end like a fish net was thrown over it?!
Starts at $85,000. There are TON of super sedans that you can buy that are faster, and better with handling.
If those two things would matter one bit in everyday commuting then yes. But they're not important. So, no.
@@jspr2k5 if they're not important, than what else sets this sedan apart from any other sedan with a nice interior? You don't spend $85,000 on a sporty sedan with a v8 with no regards to its performance.
@@MaxSpeedMike this car has value in the same sense that other super sedans have value. Comfort, plenty of redundant power, image etc, etc..
My point is that if you're spending 85k on this you have the finances to actually buy a sports car on the side.
@@jspr2k5 that point makes sense. Thanks
@@MaxSpeedMike I really appreciate your way of commutation. I must admit that I agree with your point that the competition in this price point is very heavy. I'd have a hard time choosing!
Whaaaat? Toyota has an outdated infotainment? Color me shocked. Damn this car looks good though
Nissan is worse, somehow
It's not outdated, quite new actually; it's just bad.
Check out BULLETS GARAGE on TH-cam for his Lexus GSF BUILD
I am in love with this car and I am on to buying one. I don’t give a damn thing about not having fancy gadgets and etc. This thing is so alive, so visceral, so honest as no other car on the market today. Thanks for testing it. 💯
The GS F is a rung below the M5 in both price and performance so its probably a better competitor to the M550i honestly. That being said the engine alone makes that car worth it (the Lexus).
love Lexus V8
The best sport sedan ever because it does what a sport sedan is supposed to do..look good, drive fast and handle better. All the infotainment shortcomings.. cuz yes its bad...is overlooked by performance and RELIABILITY!
The clip of Yuri sprinting past the car made me cry laughing😂
