Autocar Rating
Just as the IS can't quite summon up the last few degrees of flair and involvement to better the 3 series, so the GS ultimately can't get a fingertip to the benchmark provided by the Five. It's a smooth operator all right - easy on the eye, comfortably appointed, outstandingly refined - but the ride isn't up to the mark and the handling fails to inspire.
