Rear seat room in the Q50 is definitely better than the G and I drive people around a little bit and haven't had complaints in the G. I've had to tweak my seat up a bit but I don't think I'll have to with the Q.
The GS is nice. Looks like the incentives are on the 2013 with the 14's right around the corner.
If I recall, the GS backup camera doesn't have guidelines to show where the car is headed. Not a huge deal but it bothers me in my wife's RX and it should be included.
The infotainment in the 2013 GS is subpar if you ask me, I actually like the mouse input but the GPS just seems old and clunky. I'm not a fan.
I love the interior of the GS and with the incentives it gets close to a Q lease if you are leasing.
See if you can sit in a Q at least before making your decision. I am going to guess the driving dynamics will heavily favor the Q but I haven't driven one so I can't say for sure. The Lexus cars tend to be more luxury focused in their drive feel.
Tou decision with similar leases on the 2013 but the GS falls short for me as I want all if the tech goodies and that starts to ramp up the price pretty considerably with Lexus.
Take a look at some of the threads and do a search. Simpsontide did a nice write up of the GS if you can find it.
Good luck - both cars are nice and I don't think you can wrong with either. Maybe wait until the 2014's come out fortune GS to see if they add or change anything substantially. The 13's should still be on sale or even better at that point.
