2013 LEXUS GS350 Version L - Maybe The Ultimate Driving Machine

Post by arfs »

Pendahuluan singkat:

2013 LEXUS GS350 Version L dengan warna Obsidian Black dengan warna interior hitam ini dibeli di awal tahun 2020 dengan odometer 85.[cencored] km sebelum pandemi COVID-19 merebak dengan kondisi full service record tanpa ada kendala dengan budget dibawah 400 juta Rupiah.

Kenapa meminang LEXUS GS350?
Awalnya kami (saya dan kakak saya) diberikan budget 400 juta Rupiah untuk membeli mobil perusahaan yang dapat dipakai harian dan dinikmati di akhir pekan. Opsi pertama apabila meminang sedan berukuran sedang bermesin enam silinder pastinya yang dilirik pertama kali adalah BMW yang terkenal dengan mesin segaris enam silindernya. Beberapa unit BMW 535i pun sempat kami lihat namun tidak ada yang cocok. Mulailah kami mencari opsi lainnya, dan ketika membuka website jual-beli kendaraan mulailah dilirik Lexus GS350 dengan spesifikasi tenaga yang mirip dengan BMW 535i.

Setelah melihat beberapa unit LEXUS GS350 ketemulah yang cocok sesuai dengan budget.
Sebelum meminang kami membawa unit tersebut untuk dilakukan pengecekan umum di salah satu dealer resmi LEXUS di Jakarta.
Hasilnya bagus tidak ada kendala sama sekali, dan setelah dilakukan transaksi dibawahlah pulang GS350 ini.

Impresi pengemudian setelah memiliki.

Mobil ini memiliki empat mode pengendaraan: Eco, Normal, Sport dan Sport + dengan shock absorber adaptive.
Ketika sehari-hari dipakai biasanya saya suka memakan mode Eco agar konsumsi bahan bakar yang digunakan minim.
Apabila di akhir pekan dan ingin berkendara dengan entusiasme biasanya saya memakai mode Sport agar respons tenaga nya lebih sigap.

Lalu kapan mode Sport + digunakan?
Mode Sport + ini biasa saya gunakan apabila rute jalan yang akan dilalui melahap tikungan dengan kecepatan tinggi.
Di mode ini selain throttle & transmission response menjadi sigap, shock absorber adaptive pada mobil ini juga menjadi sigap juga untuk mengurangi body roll sehinga memberikan pengalaman mengemudi yang berbeda. Karakter pengendalian mobil terasa netral tidak understeer atau oversteer saat dikemudikan di ambang batas.


Kecepatan maksimum pada mobil ini dibatasi di 245 km/h secara eletronik padahal baru di gigi kelima.

The Pursuit of Perfection
Kualitas pembuatan mobil ini sangat terasa unsur perfeksionis nya dikarenakan saat mobil ini dirancang - slogan Lexus pada saat itu adalah The Pursuit of Perfection. Majalah MotorTrend USA pada tahun 2012 sempat melakukan komparasi antara Infiniti M37S, Audi A6 3.0T, BMW 535i dan LEXUS GS350. Hasilnya LEXUS GS350 meraih peringkat satu pada komparasi tersebut. "Great steering. Balanced, communicative, properly weighted. Just a joy to drive. Neutral without being leaden. In fact I say all this having driven the car in Sport instead of Sport Plus." - kata jurnalis otomotif terkenal Jonny Lieberman.

Experience Amazing
Ya pengalaman yang menakjubkan, ketika memakai LEXUS anda akan merasakan Omotenashi - melayani dengan sepenuh hati khas negara Jepang.
Ketika anda datang ke sebuah diler resmi LEXUS anda akan dilayani sepenuh hati tanpa memandang latar belakang anda apa.

Final Verdict

LEXUS GS350 adalah mobil sedan berukuran sedang bermesin enam silinder yang cocok bagi anda yang suka mengendari mobil secara entusias namun tetap dapat nyaman disaat anda sedang ingin santai.

nice review om.

tahun 2022 saya bantu ipar saya beli gs350 2013, black on cognac itu di 430 jt haha, sudah di facellft. dapet dibawah 400 jt tahun 2020 sih mantep bgt itu om.

yes saya setuju ini mbl enak dan tidak rewel. layar tengah super besar, heater dan cooler seat, head up display, mark levinson audio, bagasi elektrik, pengaturan jok elektrik jauh lebih banyak dr sedan jerman kebanyakan di indo dan segala gimmick2 yang di rival eropa jerman pun tidak ada. bener2 mobil mewaah. sebelum transaksi, colok scanner dl, dari hampir 40 major things yang ke scan, yg fault cuma 1, itupun hanya suspensi (yg sudah di ganti coilover), flawless.

tdnya adik ipar saya pgn mercy bmw, karena umurnya cukup masih bocah dan masih belum kerja cuma dikasi budget sekian beli mbl dan maunya sedan besar, saya push ke lexus gs350.

sampai saat ini mbl masih strong, tidak ada rusak2an meski minim (sekali) perawatan dan suka di geber2 200++. ga kebayang kalo dia ambil mersih bmw wkwkw.

raun v6 na nya juga enak mesin pun halus, reliable, pun mesin ini dipakai di Lotus Evora. bisa dikilik dgn kasi turbo atau supercharger. kurang nya, agak boros aja. tp tergantung kaki sih.

Pernah sewaktu sehabis isi bahan bakar lalu kena macet parah, hasilnya latihan memiliki supercar.


Pernah juga dari Citeureup ke Pluit berkendara secara hemat hasilnya 16.3 km/l.

Buat saya, review yang dibuat om arfs mendalam meski tidak begitu panjang artikelnya.

Anyway, GS350 ini masih punya prestige meski umurnya sudah 11 tahun walau menurut saya tampang depannya tidak termasuk desain yang timeless.

nice review rief

kebetulan dulu pernah miara yg SUV nya, RX300. emg mobilnya termasuk paling nyaman & empuk dikelasnya + durable juga. 4 tahun melihara sejak beli secara seken, cuma ganti oli sm servis rutin aja + pelayanan beresnya juga sangat baik menurut saya. cuma emg minusnya driving feel sm handlingnya ga seenak bmw aja hehehe

somehow untuk sport saloon, si cap L ini paham betul gimana bikin sport saloon. Naturally aspirated engine, banyak silinder. skrg pun masih punya portfolio V8 N/A. coming from a company that produces the most beautifully sounding V10. opa akio ngerti banget seninya ngebikin mobil enak dibawa. not crazy 0-100 figures or such, tapi just balanced, and the sound....

believable kalo lebih enak dari 535i F10, emang EPSnya BMW jaman itu kacrut ampe M5 nya juga.

cuma si gs350 ini gear ratio nya panjang2, meski 306hp rasanya kurang nendang.
cm kalo yg suka sedikit santai, ya mbl ini enak sih.

suara v6 nya kalo di modip agak mirip gtr r35 :big_biglaugh:

Pengalaman pas masih di LN dititipin mbl temen 350 tapi base model non adaptive suspension
dulu impresinya mayan kenceng tp klo high speed agak sedikit body roll tapi balik lg cara stir ane aja
mungkin yg ga cocok sama karakter mobilnya :mky_01:

Nice review ini, Penasaran ini yg adaptive suspension harusnya lebih mantep,
yg pasti ini mobil sih reliable dari beli 2nd sampai dijual, malah rugi temen ane beli extended warranty ga pernah claim :big_biglaugh:

Naksir sama GS200t yg facelift tp harga kuat bener dan barang susah :big_think:
LEXUS GS saat facelift di tahun 2016 ada beberapa technical improvement di struktur bodi nya.
https://media.lexus.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2021/06/1517227368180125MGSfullrelease.pdf wrote:Increased body rigidity
From 2016, the GS has a more rigid body, achieved by adding 188 extra spot welding points,
increased use of structural adhesive across 2.25 metres of body part joints and 132 additional
laser screw welding points around the door apertures.

Together these measures improve ride comfort and secure even more precise vehicle
movement in response to the driver’s steering inputs.
Lalu ada penambahan Performance Damper
Image

GS200t F-Sport versi Indonesia ada pengurangan fitur dibanding GS350 sebelum facelift seperti kursi depan 18-Way Electric Seats menjadi lebih sedikit 16-Way.

Mungkin bisa cek instagram @lgarage.id kadang ada unit LEXUS yang menarik disana.
