2008 LEXUS GS Performance (Continued)
Optional equipment shown.
The GS 460 sports an eight-speed sequential-shift automatic transmission, while the GS 350 is equipped with a six-speed sequential-shift automatic
transmission. The additional gears in each of these high-performance sedans provide greater acceleration on demand and virtually seamless shifting.
Both feature an Electronically Controlled Transmission with intelligence (ECT-i) that can learn your acceleration habits and adjust the shift-timing accordingly.
And for those who prefer to have more command over their vehicle, the sequential-shifting feature enables you to manually shift gears by simply nudging the
gear shift forward and backward.

2008 LEXUS GS Suspension & Handling
Optional equipment shown.
The journey of a GS driver seldom follows a straight line. Rather, in the mind of this driver—the more curves, the better. Which is precisely why
the GS models include a multi-link rear suspension for responsive handling. And why the GS 460 sports a Variable Gear-Ratio Steering (VGRS)
system that automatically varies the rack-and-pinion steering ratio for optimal maneuverability and control. And because every road—straight and
curvy—must eventually end at some point, the GS comes equipped with an advanced braking system featuring front brake pads that yield a higher
coefficient of friction.3 Adaptive Variable Suspension (AVS), standard on the GS 460 and available on the GS 350, enables you to choose the
Normal or Sport suspension setting to best fit your driving style. The all-wheel drive (AWD) GS 350 isn’t particular when it comes to devouring
roads. AWD helps give added traction in many types of driving conditions. And, by allocating engine power to each individual wheel, it can help
provide the GS greater grip in corners than two-wheel-drive performance sedans.

2008 LEXUS GS Control
You never know what you’ll find around the next curve,
which is why we developed the highly advanced Vehicle
Dynamics Integrated Management (VDIM)4 system in the
GS. Using a series of electronic sensors that can anticipate
a loss of traction, rather than merely detect a loss of traction
once it occurs, the system can apply a combination of
individual wheel braking, throttle reduction and steering
assistance to help you maintain traction, balance and control.
Using a separate set of sensors, the available adaptive
cruise control5 can detect the speed of a vehicle traveling
ahead and automatically decelerate to maintain a pre-set
following distance. Fully anticipating that the GS driver will
likely spend as much time as possible on curvy roads, the
GS is available with an Adaptive Front Lighting System
(AFS).* To help illuminate more of the road around a curve,

the headlamps rotate into the turn. In a left turn, the left headlamp will pivot up to 15 degrees and in a right turn, the right headlamp will pivot up to
five degrees. Even those who tend to keep their pedal firmly planted downward have to stop and reverse now and then. So, for those select few times,
the GS is made available with a backup camera.6 Included with the available DVD Navigation System,7 the backup camera6 uses a tiny lens at the
rear of the vehicle to transmit a clear, wide-angle color image to your NAV screen the instant the GS is placed in reverse. By enabling you to see
objects you otherwise might have missed, the camera helps provide greater assurance than mirrors alone. Because while reversing may be the last
thing you want to do in a car like the GS, it’s the last thing we would ever ignore. For added assurance, the GS comes standard with side mirrors that
automatically tilt down when the car is placed in reverse. A particularly useful feature when parallel parking or when there are low objects around you.
*Standard on GS 460; available on GS 350.

2008 LEXUS GS Interior
Optional equipment shown.
Majestic sunrises and sunsets are like nothing else in the world. The brilliant shades of orange and red. The flickering sun on the horizon. The glare. Yes, even
meteorological wonders have their problems. Not that the driver of the GS would ever notice, mind you. Because the faces covering the instrument panel gauges
in the GS are all part of a larger Electronic Chromatic Device (ECD) system. The system is activated by a sensor in the rear window that detects the amount of
light being projected into the cabin of the GS. In the case of a setting sun, for example, the faces automatically lower their transparency level to help reduce glare
and maintain optimal visibility. When the vehicle is off, the ECD system is inactive and the faces are 100% transparent. When the vehicle is on and the ambient
light level is low, the faces are 70% transparent. When the ECD system becomes activated by light entering the rear of the GS, the faces automatically reduce
their transparency levels to as low as 30% to reduce glare. While anticipating your needs is one component of luxury, adapting to your personal preferences
is just as important. Hence, features like dual-zone automatic climate control and heated, 10-way power-adjustable front seats with available internal ventilation.
With Lexus Personalized Settings (LPS),8 you can tailor nearly 40 different options to your taste, from the automatic opening of the moonroof when you unlock
the doors to the volume of the remote entry beeper. And what could be more personal than a car that detects its owner’s presence? With SmartAccess9 you can
operate the door locks, open the trunk and start the ignition without ever taking the key out of your pocket. Sure it’s unconventional. But, then again, so are you.

2008 LEXUS GS Interior Lighting
In a car like the GS, the driver’s seat
is a destination in itself. Accordingly,
it even comes with its own tour guide.
Whatever corner of the world you travel
to, the mark of a superior tour guide is
the innate ability to identify which areas
you’ll find of particular interest along
your journey. The sequential lighting
system inside the GS functions in much
the same way. Using a combination of
its 18 lamps, the system sequentially
illuminates different areas of the interior
based upon where the driver will
most likely need light during the entry
process. From the first illumination of
the puddle lamps before you even reach
the door to the final illumination of the
ignition button, the GS was designed
to intuitively predict and assist you in
every movement until the engine is
started. Of course, where you go after
that is completely up to you.

2008 LEXUS GS DVD Navigation System with Backup Camera
Not the type to ask for directions? Have your cell
phone do it for you. For those hesitant to swallow
their pride and ask for directions, the GS is available
with a voice-activated DVD Navigation System7
that, through the use of Bluetooth® technology,10
can interact with your Lexus-compatible cell phone.
So, should you not know a commercial location’s
address or GPS coordinates to search by, the
system can oftentimes search by simply importing
the location’s phone number directly from your
cell phone. You can even place a hands-free call
through the system, notifying the expectant party
that you’re on your way. And with nearly nine million
preprogrammed points of interest, the system can
assist with everything from guiding you to the
nearest ATM location to recommending a seafood
restaurant for dinner. And while the Navigation
System7 helps guide you forward, its screen also
helps you move backward. An available backup
camera6 uses a tiny lens at the rear of the vehicle
to transmit a wide-angle color image to your NAV
screen the instant you place the GS in reverse.

2008 LEXUS GS Mark Levinson® Audio System
Optional equipment shown.
There are hundreds of reasons to stop and explore the scenery. However, we’ve given you 7.1 reasons to keep driving. This was the motivation
behind the available Mark Levinson® Premium Surround Sound Audio System11 in the GS. Utilizing 14 strategically placed speakers and a powerful
11-channel amplifier, this fully discrete 7.1-channel surround sound system was engineered to produce the purest sound available. Where, unlike typical
5.1-channel architecture, the “sweet spot” of sound encompasses all passenger-seating locations. So that, quite literally, every seat is the best seat in the house.

2008 LEXUS GS Safety and Security
With the GS, intuitive luxuries abound. Like
available windshield wipers that automatically
turn on when the system detects rain on the
windshield and adjust their wiping speed to
accommodate for the rate of rainfall. And tires
that are individually equipped with sensors that
continually monitor the tire pressure.12 Should
there ever be a critical loss in pressure, an
indicator light will alert the driver. While liberal
doses of exhilaration are doled out mile after
mile, the safety of you and your passengers
will always be a priority. Which is why the
GS is made available with a Pre-Collision
System (PCS).13 With PCS, a millimeter-wave
radar system can calculate the distance and
speed at which the GS is approaching an object
and determine if a collision is imminent. If so,
the system will automatically apply increased
braking force once you step on the brakes, while
simultaneously retracting the front seatbelts to
help prepare the occupants.

2008 LEXUS GS Safety and Security (Continued)
The safety features of the GS can actually help prevent
collision. A system called Vehicle Dynamics Integrated
a
Management (VDIM)4 can help control loss of traction during
a turn. When a series of sensors detects a problem, the system
uses a combination of individual-wheel braking, throttle activation
and steering assistance to seamlessly correct the situation before
a skid actually occurs. A technology called Brake Assist14 can
gauge how quickly and forcefully the driver steps on the brake
pedal and if a panic stop situation is detected automatically apply
additional braking power until the driver releases the pedal.
Furthermore, in those rare instances when a collision does occur,
front and rear crumple zones are designed to help manage
the forces of the impact on the driver and the passengers.

airbags15 strategically placed throughout the cabin. To help protect
front and rear passengers in certain severe side-impact collisions,
the GS models features full-length side curtain and front seat-
mounted side airbags, while rear passengers also benefit from
rear-seat mounted side airbags, all of which come standard. And
knee and frontal airbags can help provide additional protection
to the driver and front passenger. The dual-stage front airbag
system is designed to deploy at different speeds depending upon
such variables as the severity of impact and the distance between
the driver’s seat and the steering wheel.

Tire Pressure Monitor System alerts the driver when tire pressure is critically low. For optimal tire wear and performance, tire pressure should be checked regularly with a gauge; do not rely solely on the monitor system. Please see your Owner’s
Manual for details. 13. The Pre-Collision System is designed to help reduce the crash speed and damage in certain frontal collisions only. It is not a collision-avoidance system and is not a substitute for safe and attentive driving. System effectiveness
depends on many factors, such as speed, driver input and road conditions. Please see your Owner’s Manual for further information. 14. Brake Assist is designed to help the driver take full advantage of the benefits of ABS. It is not a substitute for
safe driving practices. Braking effectiveness also depends on proper brake-system maintenance and tire and road conditions. 15. All the airbag (“AB”) systems are Supplemental Restraint Systems. All ABs (if installed) are designed to inflate only
under certain conditions and in certain types of severe collisions: frontal and knee ABs typically inflate in frontal collisions; side and side curtain ABs in side collisions; Roll-Sensing Curtain ABs at a severe tilt degree, roll or lateral G-force. In all other
accidents, the ABs will not inflate. To decrease the risk of injury from an inflating AB, always wear seatbelts, sit upright in the middle of the seat as far back as possible and do not lean against the door. Do not put objects in front of an AB or around
the seatback. Do not use a rearward-facing child seat in any front passenger seat. The force of an inflating AB may cause serious injury or death. Please see your Owner’s Manual for further information/warnings. 16. 17- or 18-in tires are expected
to experience greater tire wear than conventional tires. Tire life may be substantially less than 20,000 miles (17-in tires) or 15,000 miles (18-in tires), depending on driving conditions. 17. Continuous average power, all channels driven, at less than
0.1% THD; 20-20,000 Hz. 18. Run-flat tire technology is designed for limited emergency use only. If air pressure is lost, vehicle speed must remain below 55 mph; cornering, braking and accelerating must be done with extreme caution; and the
tire should be replaced within 100 miles. Please see your Lexus dealer for details. 19. An active Lexus Link® subscription (including a signed Lexus Link Service Subscription Agreement) is required in order to receive Lexus Link services. Lexus Link
services require vehicle electrical system and wireless service to be available and operating for features to function properly. Lexus Link uses existing emergency service providers as well as wireless and satellite technologies. A one-year subscription
to the Safety Plan is included with the purchase of a new vehicle. Other plans are available at an additional cost. 20. Functioning XM® Satellite Radio and SIRIUS® Satellite Radio require a compatible receiver and monthly service fee. Please see
Available only in the 48 contiguous United States. 21. 2008 EPA MPG estimates. For model year 2008, the EPA has revised the way the estimated fuel economy is determined. Actual mileage will vary.
