Lexus GS
This midsize luxury sedan features ultra-dynamic handling. The GS 350 is powered by a 3.5-litre 306-horsepower V6 engine. The hybrid GS 400h has—you guessed it—hybrid technology, while, at the other end of the spectrum, the F variant is practically a sports car with a 467-horsepower V8. The F comes with an 8-speed transmission and a suspension capable of supporting all that power. And it's reliable to boot!
