Back into a sedan. 2015 GS350 Fsport
I miss being in a sedan ever since the 2G TL.. Thought I'd make a build/progress thread since this won't be staying stock for too long.. 
Originally, I really wanted to pick it up in the Riviera Red but apparently they had none available in the West Coast so went with the Ultra White. Really cool car even without all the other options like blind spot mirrors, parking assist, power trunk, heads up display and what not. Don't think I would need the winter package in California..... lol
Picked it up for the company I'm working at back a couple weeks (May 18th) with 67 miles on the ODO.. enjoying it as much as I can in its stock form before we start making changes.
2015 Lexus GS350 F Sport (RWD) in Ultra White
Black Interior
So far.. I've got tint lined up for the weekend with a mobile guy for ceramic and 30% all around and Megan Racing Coilovers are in and dropped off for some work before it all goes into the car.
forgive me for the potato cam photo but a this is my visit today to check on the coilovers and where everything is at before I drop off the car.

I actually love the Predator look. 
It looks very distinctive on the road. Lexus has it down in terms of the corporate design theme. They wanted to attract more younger buyers, and they have done it over the past five years through its design changes and marketing.

It's a family sedan. Just do wheels/suspension/exhaust and be done with it.

Congrats! Love the color combo. The pearl white on Lexus' is just so perfect.
That's like three white F-Sports in the past few months on here, isn't it?

Agree with everyone else...love this car! 
Would definitely be my next new car if I was in the market. Good call on the coils though, this car desperately needs it. I can't get past how the front end rides higher than the rear. Can't wait to see it with a drop

good choice on the coils.
youll notice some of the more aggressive springs for lexus sedans are a good half inch difference in drop between F/R, just to achieve a level look.

Since my last post.. I've gotten tint done with Llumar Ceramic done by a mobile guy with a friend. I got 30% all around minus the front windshield and Ceramic on all the windows minus the sunroof/moonroof. In my honest opinion.. i'm not sure if there are any real temp differences in the cabin.. lol. to me... hot is hot. 
Other than that.. got some LED lights delivered only for a couple things since most of the lights in the cabin all come LED stock minus the doors, trunk and mirrors.. went ahead and got the mirrors done first.. definitely should have done this one sooner.
STOCK
LED
got a short video of the difference and the lights dimming in and out... waiting for it to upload.....

short video to show turning on and off... it dims on when i walk towards the car and in this clip.. i walked away as soon as it turned off so it dims out when nothing is done (unlock car or lock car again)
