Have had this care since 2002 and it has been the best car I have ever owned. The engine seems to be bulletproof and will not stop running. I an at 198,000 miles and still no oil use or reliability problems. I did put in my first alternator at 196,000. It is no wonder chrysler and chevy are bankrupt. They could never build a car this good.

This was car was given to me by my parents as the car I used to learn how to drive. Although this car had 300hp and PLENTY of torque at the low-end, this car has proved to be safe, reliable, and fast. We've had this car since December 1997, and recently surpassed the 104,000 mile mark. It has been through one major accident, yet this car runs like it just rolled off the showroom. It's fast, it's absolutely comfortable, it's silent, yet it has a subtle V8 growl. It exudes true Lexus quality and reliability. However, gas mileage has been pretty dismal (averaging 15-17mpg city/highway combined) and although this car has been dealership maintained, it gets pretty pricey to service or fix. However, take good care of this car and it will last for at least another 100K. This is the only car our family has kept for more than 5 years, and it is still amazing. This car is world-class.

This car just goes and goes. I've never had to do a major repair in 8 years of ownership and it's approaching 178k. It's larger that an IS250/350 but will still get you 18/25 miles to the gallon.

This is one of the best cars I have ever had. It performs very well for a midsize car. It has been a great purchase for the money and the minimal up keep it has need to to keep it running well. I will buy another Lexus in a year or two.
