Lexus Announces Pricing on New 2007 GS 350 and Additional 2007 Models

Lexus announced today the Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) on the new 2007 GS 350 and the following 2007 models: GS 430, IS 350, IS 250, SC 430, LX 470, GX 470 and Lexus RX 400h.


Lexus GS 350 / GS 430

The 2007 Lexus GS 350 replaces the previous 245-horsepower 3.0-liter GS 300 model with a new 303-horsepower 3.5-liter V6 that produces 274 lb.-ft. of torque. The GS 350 is available in rear- and all-wheel drive (AWD) models. The new Lexus GS 350 builds upon its predecessor's already significant levels of performance, advanced luxury and intuitive technology, and it becomes the most powerful six-cylinder model in its segment.

For the new model year, both GS 350 models receive the high-performance front brake pads and larger front brakes found on the V8-powered GS 430 and an 18-inch wheel option for the rear-wheel drive GS 350. For the GS 430, an active stabilizer is now available to help achieve a greater level of vehicle control during cornering.

Standard features added to all 2007 GS models include a shark fin-style antenna which supports satellite radio operation and Lexus Link communications, a VDIM/VSC cut-off function, and rear-seat side airbags. Previously an option, the one-touch open/close moonroof is now standard on all models. The fifth generation DVD Navigation System with a high-resolution screen and enhanced voice-recognition technology is available as an option as is Lexus Link. The GS also receives five new exterior colors.

With the moonroof now standard, the GS 350 carries an MSRP of $44,150, with the GS 350 AWD at $46,100 and $52,375 for the GS 430, an increase of 2.3%, 2.2% and 1.9% respectively. Pricing remains unchanged when compared to 2006 models equipped with a moonroof. For added value, a savings of $400 applies to GS option packages that include the Navigation System.



Lexus IS 250 / IS 350

The popular IS sport sedans also add a shark fin-style antenna and VDIM/VSC cut-off function as well as foglamp indicator, illuminated fuel opener and illuminated trunk opener to their list of standard features for 2007. In addition, the High-Intensity Discharge (HID) headlamps with the Adaptive Front lighting System (AFS) will now be available as a standalone option. New for 2007 is the X Package option for Lexus IS 350, IS 250 rear-wheel drive and Lexus IS 250 manual models. This package includes a sport-tuned suspension, alloy sport pedals, illuminated scuff plates, front lip spoiler and 18-inch five-spoke wheels.

Pricing for the 2007 IS line-up (with the exception of the IS 250 AWD which remains unchanged at $34,285) reflects an increase of $265, or less than one percent. MSRPs for the IS 250 manual and IS 250 rear-wheel drive are $30,255 and $31,425 respectively. Base pricing for Lexus IS 350 is $35,705.
