Buying a Lexus GS - hybrid or non-hybrid?

I am looking at changing my 10 year old Lexus IS and am considering the GS range at 3-4 years old. Choice being GS450H, GS250 or GS300H. Question is, do I go for hybrid or non-hybrid?

I tested that range here: www.honestjohn.co.uk/road-tests/lexus/lexus-gs-201.../ We also tested the 200h here: www.honestjohn.co.uk/road-tests/lexus/lexus-gs-300.../ And we ran a GS450 long-term here: www.honestjohn.co.uk/our-cars/lexus-gs450h/ Np reader reports of anything going wrong: www.honestjohn.co.uk/carbycar/lexus/gs-2012/
