The GS F Sport feels like a serious sport sedan. All the Jello has been squeezed out of the suspension and steering, leaving an athlete that responds instantly to your inputs.

The GS F Sport feels like a serious sport sedan. All the Jello has been squeezed out of the suspension and steering, leaving an athlete that responds instantly to your inputs. In fact, it's a bit too twitchy: It tends to dart left or right in response to seemingly slight steering inputs, bolt forward at the tap of the gas pedal, and stop in its tracks if you so much as brush the brakes. The steering isn't as heavy as I'd like, though it does communicate rather well. Overall, the driving experience is not quite as fluid as in a Jaguar XF or an Audi A6. But, then, a Jaguar XF or Audi A6 will probably be nowhere near as reliable as a Lexus GS, so nobody's perfect.

Dyer Consequences: Going Postal - Automobile Magazine
Thanks to posts from my Automobile Magazine-reading Facebook friends, I'm aware that the readership of this magazine is politically divided.

Thanks to posts from my Automobile Magazine-reading Facebook friends, I'm aware that the readership of this magazine is politically divided. The government takeover of General Motors is a particularly volatile issue, one that will doubtless be debated over the months leading up to the next election. But whether your tastes run toward blue or red, I think we can all form a bipartisan consensus on one topic: Chevrolet Corvette ZR1s should be used to deliver the mail.

COMMENT: Industry naming style pro_cee’ds towards MINI fudge-up!

Stay connected Subscribe to our RSS feed
A small but perfectly formed email debate has been going on between various just-auto staff writers and freelancers today, following an edict from yours truly in the role of, for my sins, editorial style watchdog. Do we finally bow, at gunpoint in my case, to grammatical travesties such as Mazda5, Kia's pro_cee'd, VW's up! as well as MINI and SEAT's insistence on capitals or do we do it the proper way some of us can remember being drummed into us as much as 50 years ago?
