5 reasons to buy the 2019 Lexus GS 350

1. Great V6 power 

All trim levels of the 2019 GS 350 get a standard 3.5L V6 engine. It makes an impressive 311 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque. The GS 350 comes in either rear-wheel drive with an eight-speed automatic or all-wheel-drive with a six-speed automatic. Whether it is for daily driver use or as a long-distance road trip companion, the 2019 GS 350 has you covered. 

2. Fun F Sport option 

The 2019 F Sport trim is a great place to start if you want to add more sport to your commute. Take a look at the rear-wheel-drive version, which has standard features like trim-specific 19-inch wheels, a sport-tuned adaptive variable suspension, and bigger front brakes. You'll get interior and exterior feature sporty upgrades as well that are specific to the F Sport trim. The F Sport AWD version is pretty much the same for 2019, but it doesn't feature the larger brakes. 

3. Loads of standard features 

The AWD trim is technically the base model for the 2019 model year. It has standard features like simulated leather upholstery, keyless ignition and entry, a sunroof, power-adjustable and heated front seats, driver-seat memory settings, and an automatic climate control system. Exterior standard features include LED headlights and heated, power-folding mirrors. If you are looking for leather upholstery, the rear-wheel-drive base model gets it as standard.  

4. Lots of tech 

If you are looking for some of the latest technology features, take a look at the 2019 GS 350. Standard features include a 12.3-inch display screen, Bluetooth® connectivity, a navigation system, voice controls, and a 12-speaker sound system. A variety of driver aids, such as blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert, also come standard as well.  

5. Luxury upgrades available 

You can search for the Premium package, optional on the base AWD and standard on the base RWD for 2019. It includes heated and ventilated front seats, automatic wipers, and a power rear sunshade. If you want more, the Luxury package (GS 350 RWD or GS 350 AWD) has additional upgrades like wood trim, upgraded power front seats, premium leather, heated rear seats, and three-zone climate control with rear-seat climate and audio controls.
