Reviews of the 2009 Lexus GS 450h

CNET Review
The Good: The 2009 Lexus GS 450h produces plenty of power while turning in excellent fuel economy for a car of this size. Its optional premium audio system sounds very good, especially with CDs.
The Bad: The navigation system lacks advanced features found in comparable cars. Audio sources are limited, with no iPod integration available.
The Bottom Line: The 2009 Lexus GS 450h offers power and luxury, without costing a bundle at the pump. But merely average cabin tech suggests waiting for a model update.
