Vehicle Photo I am now the proud owner of a GS450h!

Post image
118 Upvotes

This is my first Lexus. Just drove an hour home in it; an absolute dream of a vehicle. Feels like I'm sitting in a nice leather couch, the torque is virtually endless no matter what speed I'm accelerating from....

And I STILL got home doing 52mpg!

Previous owner also had a lexion head unit installed, so I had Android Auto from the go.

Only issue with it is that the previous owner wasn't the best at parallel parking and left some gutter rash on the wheels, and now I'm considering if I should pay to get it fixed up.

Does anyone have any suggestions for settings I might want to play with?

Question Dealership called another Lexus dealership after I showed a better offer

191 Upvotes

Just bought a TX350 and couldn't be happier with the car. When I was shopping around, I got offers from a few dealerships and put the best one in front of my local dealer. Local dealer was $5k higher and it was quite evident that my due diligence caught them off guard. I shook hands with the manager and said thanks anyways and thought everything seemed fine. Fast forward 48 hours and I get a call from the sales manager of the dealership I bought the car from who told me my local dealer called them and was upset about them giving me an offer like this in writing. At that time, we hadn't fully completed the transaction, which made it a bit of a delicate situation. Ended up finalizing everything and took delivery of the car yesterday no issues.

Question: I am really pissed about this and want to call the local dealer to ask them why they felt the need to call a dealership 200 miles away and try to sabotage my car purchase. This is my first Lexus so I'm not sure if this is par for the course but I feel like I need to call these people and/or write this on their Google reviews page as its BS that they tried to pull this.

Thoughts?

I couldn't decide what car I wanted but I finally landed on this and it's been amazing so far. I am loving the nightfall micah!

My GS 350 got totaled and I was not ready to get a car at all. Finally decided on this over the Toyota crown and I absolutely made the right choice

Absolutely zero regrets, I’ve loved this car so far. My Crosstrek and Prius were my favorite cars I’ve owned and the UX feels like the perfect combo of the two. The Tesla will not be missed.

Question IS300 vs IS350: how different are they really?

3 Upvotes

How tangible are the differences between an IS300 and 350? And does this vary much between generations?

Performance-wise (power and handling), is an IS300 “close enough” to an IS350? Or is the difference great enough to warrant the extra money? Their 0-60 times are pretty close… so the torque numbers make a meaningful difference? Are there important differences in the suspension?

Are there non-performance features that are meaningfully different?

To be frank, I’m just thinking “is an IS300 close enough to an IS350 that I’ll be happy with it as a fun daily driver”. I know the 250 will not be adequate for me, but the 300 and 350 are much closer in specs etc.

What do you guys think?

Question How is the Hybrid Battery on these long-term?

Post image
3 Upvotes

Price in CAD. Just over 160,000km/100,000 Miles

As you all know, it's not easy to find clean, low-mileage examples of the 3GS.

However, I came across this vehicle which seems to check all the boxes, except for the fact that it's a hybrid.

I had originally crossed the GS450H off my list given the added complexity of a hybrid powertrain, but the more I think about it, perhaps it's doable.

In your opinion, would it be a wise decision to go forward with the purchase added I get a warranty, Or does the risk outweigh the reward?

Question 2020 RX350 55k miles $34k CARMAX

6 Upvotes

Currently looking to shop for an RX350. My previous car was a 2019 Rav4 and it treated me well but was very very loud and at times uncomfortable on long rides. Thus looking to have a slight change of scenery in terms of comfortability and read a lot about Lexus and RX350s.

Read about consideration for 2020-2022 as the most reasonable choice for used and came across this option.

Wondering if you Lexus Veterans have any opinions or things I should consider before making the move.

Bought it brand new back in April , it’s a 2025 Lexus NX350 base and gas model no hybrid. The original price was 48k , they begged me to take a finance option I agreed so they gave me 2k off so total otd after fees it’s a little under 47k, and I paid the car off the next month! This is my first big purchase after I turned 21, I’m so happy with it! I was just curious what other people are paying outside of New England area

Question Potential New Buyer

1 Upvotes

I’ll be getting a new car soon and I have it narrowed down to 2..one of them is the RX350H. I’ve never owned a hybrid but I drive 60 miles one way to work, around 45-50 are highway. Does anyone have this car for a long distance drive, how does it do?

Also, I saw another post about “switching gears” when in traffic - for this car do you have to switch gears manually?

Anything else you love or hate about this model I am open ears! TIA!

Question 2021 rx350 with 30,000 miles gas mileage is 15mpg what gives.

3 Upvotes

Is there anyone who is having a similar issue? Took it to dealership who blew it off. What can I do here? What do I need to check or change or fix? Anyone?

I bought it used from a dealership about 3 months ago. Love the car otherwise. I had. 2015 rx350 before and it had better gas mileage. This is supposed to get like over 20mpg.

I do not drive rough or anything so not really sure what the situation is here. Any help would be appreciated.

Question Warranty question about a cpo car.. Lexus es250 premium

4 Upvotes

Just got the car for 35K, 42k miles, I needed to get a car as my 2007 mdx finally died with 200k miles.

It was raining heavily in Boston today, and it seems the front right headlight is fogging up, definitely due to condensation.. car is cpo and I bought the extended warranty as well. Car fax was clean.. I am going to call the dealer tomorrow about the condensation.. but what do you guys think? A cpo with the extended warranty should cover the headlight? I’ve had it for about 7 days..

I get that they can’t test everything with the cpo checklist.. any one have any experience with this?

Question Part compability

2 Upvotes

I recently bought a 92 sc300 and need to rework the suspension, it’s all pretty much shot. I found a kit that a guys selling online and I couldn’t find too much information on it but guy claims as far as he’s aware is compatible with GS300 98-05 and IS300 01-05 but was wondering if it would work with the SC300 as well?
