2003 Lexus RX
300 AWD
300,000 mi
$6,322
Overview
The RX 300 featured minor improvements for 2002. The most notable was the faster and more efficient navigation system, which added multiple languages, and increased map database, and a route preview feature. The in-dash computer screen was also now able to display DVDs.
The RX 300 featured the same 3.0 Liter V-6, making 220 horsepower and providing 222 lb.-ft. of torque. The RX continued to surprise drivers who expected more SUV-like attributes. The gas mileage was quite high at 19/24 mpg, and the RX's unibody construction gave it a soft and cushioned ride.
Like all Lexus models the RX was marked by its reliability. Infrequent problems were reported in all areas except the engine. Many owners have noted the failure of two sensors (Mass Air Flow and Air Fuel Ratio). While drivers have generally found the RX 300's interior to be very comfortable and functional, many have commented on the odd hump in the center console, which is restrictive and easy to bump the knees into while driving.

Extremely clean interior with the exception of one tear in the drivers seat, made me want to buy this vehicle. The interior felt new. No stains, not even dirt. The exterior had been repainted at one point, albeit well done. The listing says no accidents but it had a minor cosmetic rear impact in 2014 (no big deal) and unfortunately also had a tree branch fall on the sunroof shattering the glass and, despite being repaired, leaving it inoperable at least consistently. When I tested the sunroof, it wouldn't close because broken glass particles were in the way. Those were cleaned up and the dealer says it’s functioning now, but you take on some risk. Not the end of the world. If I purchased this vehicle, I’d pull the fuse that operates the sunroof and leave it in the closed position. It drove smooth, drivetrain felt great, smooth transmission, alignment, breaks, suspension.

I’m the lady that purchased the rx300 with over 216,000 miles, it wasn’t a car, it was the SUV, and I saw the body change didn’t change much from 2006 . My vehicle looked like new when I washed it myself with dawn dish liquid and water , soaped it down, hose rinse , then soft dry auto towel, it shined like new. Leather tan interior, beautiful sunroof, state of the system direction and 5 cd changer system. All operational. I don’t want anything but a Toyota, that vehicle proved a lot to me. We went all out of town twice a week in that vehicle and it never abandoned me, always worked.

In doing research into my next vehicle, I found almost unanimous praise for the RX series from Lexus. I know 3 people with these vehicles, and none would even consider selling their RX. And with their reliability, they probably won't have to.
