My Take: The ES and GS are current enjoying lower MFs. That also is partly because they aren’t as popular as the IS. Residual values are terrible for the GS though, I think that care is in need of a redesign. No worries though, Lexus will be rolling out the LF (which happens to be the car on the banner of RIDE with G) in the near future. Expect it to be VERY expensive.
