I own a GS and I would choose it over an ES at anytime. The GS is more of a personal car. The ES is geared more towards family.

I have both a GS350 F sport and an ES300h. GS for sports premium dynamic driving and ES for daily efficient comfortable driving. Both are different cars made for different duties and goals.

I am on my second GS - awesome vehicle. In addition to performance the fit and finish of the GS is superior and closer to the LS than the ES. GS comes from the original Lexus factory, which is renowned for high quality across the board. The fact that it changes little year to year is a positive for me - the machine has been perfected and doesn't have the reliability issues that come from significant redesigns.

Just bought the 2016 GS350 F Sport. Amazing vehicle!

The GS350 is a more expensive built car, that's the reason it's been discontinued. Lexus can build cheaper ES350 and charge almost the same amount for it, just by adding some cheap features, also GS has to be built in Japan to ensure quality standards to compete with the German.

The ES is that car that sells but doesn’t have a class, the IS competes with the compact luxuries like a 3 series or a C class. The GS competes with the big boy midsized luxuries like the 5 series & the E class. The ES is priced with a compact luxury but has the space of a midsized. Who knows where it places.... I mean it sells 😂

It surprises me when I go to dealers they don’t know anything about their cars and still got job selling cars.

I wish Lexus would add Android Auto and Apple Car Play to the GS. The GS is an awesome looking vehicle with RWD. The tech is what is holding the GS back

I'm on my 3rd ES hybrid. I love the comfortable smooth ride. That's all I care about when coming from a busy day at work. I'm also glad that I get to decrease my carbon footprint. I love the space. I've recently moved my parents in with me because my dad recently went into endstage renal failure. It's dependable and a great family car.

I have a 2013 ES350, 2nd owner bought it in April 2019 w only 30, 009 miles. I was considering a GS350 and an IS350 both were $3k-8k more. I don’t need AWD so one reason why I didn’t go GS. If I had to choose again I would go IS 350. I’d sacrifice trunk size and rear seat room for a more sporty ride and handling

GS 350 F sport with the 8 speed trans. Hands down! RWD and more horsepower no thinking necessary! Plus the GS is totally my style and stance 💯💯💯

[BamaScorpio]

Pretty simple, if you want more cabin space, comfort and luxury for an affordable price you go with the ES 350. If you want a sportier look with less leg space in the back you go with the GS.

My 2018 GS350 is my 2nd Gs. As you mentioned, being from Midwest, I need AWD. Also the added power is handy when needed. Very comfortable, quiet, and powerful. Love mine!!!

[CCANGEL]

The optional Torsen Limited Slip Differential is removed as an option on the gs 350 AWD. Also four wheel steering option available only on the rear drive GS 350. What I would want is the rear drive with torsen lsd w 4ws.

Just picked up a 2013 ES 350 with only 30k miles on it, one owner kept it cherry. Basically spent half of what it was new, but if you ask me, it's still new. Great car, great quality.

[frankp]

I absolutely love my 2017 ES 350! People sleep on them but it moves. Very smooth and comfortable car. The GS 350 is a nice car as well.

[WesLey-yvvi]

GS it is!!! Coming from an A4 and that cost is maintenance is finally getting to me

[tpolestarcyan]

Which one shall I choose?... The GS! It has the proper chassis not Toyota Camry based. Thee GS is a proper competitor to BMW 5 series and Merc E class. Rear wheel drives are for proper drivers. Having said that a RWD based AWD is an exception as it has maintain some or most of rwd character.

[gengstar]

I have a GS350. Tested the newer ES (coming from the ES330) went with the GS instead. It’s worth the premium.

[AHMEDMOOSAJI]

What the GS needs is a proper redesign
The tech and interior is holding it back a lot
Of course the es is going to sell more because it's a brand new vehicle
Now people are comparing the es to the 5 series and e class but it doesn't win because it ls not in that class that's what the GS is for
Yes the we feels more luxurious and techy but that's because it s new

If you compare a 2012 es with a 2012 gs pretty sure the GS will win it is more premium and you can feel it
So if the GS is updated it would beat the es anytime
