Used 2006 Lexus GS 300 RWD for Sale near Wichita, KS

I must say that this is the first Lexus I've ever purchased and the longest I've owned a Japanese luxury marque. That in itself would speak volumes if anyone knew how I go through cars. I've owned over 30 cars in my lifetime, mostly BMW's. BMW's have great handling characteristics and a solid build feel about them. Problem is, they consistently need attention. Those niggling little issues that arise when least expected. Radio failure, engine overheating, complete cooling system overhauls, they all add up to big bucks. That being said, the Lexus GS300 has been completely reliable and has only required oil changes, other than the stated maintenance interval items. When it does require maintenance, I feel that the local Lexus dealer in my area has excellent customer service and never recommends anything I don't need. Heck, before the drought, they'd wash it for FREE every week! Can't beat that! All of the switch gear feels good and looks right in this luxury car. The audio system, Mark Levinson, is phenomenal. The rear back up camera and parking sensors give me great confidence when parallel parking and backing out of parking lot spaces. The only issues that I have, are that the handling does not feel planted to the road, like a BMW, and that aftermarket parts are more expensive than a BMW. What? Why? BMW has a broader aftermarket for parts and therefore pricing is more competitive. With multiple manufactures making the same parts drives pricing down.

Really liked the car's looks and handling and the mileage. The gas mileage generally exceeds 30 mpg for a mix of city and highway. With soaring gas prices this is even more important. The handling is tight and feels secure.

I wish it had a better response to my gas pedal acceleration. Love the overall build, quality and other amenities though...

It is a really nice car, great accelaration, very good mpg, great looks, but the interior build quality has disappointed me, the interior squeaks/rattles all the time. Also i didn't like how the suspension works for a big luxury sedan, it is noisy, a thing which you don't expect from a class like. The electronics are a little bit strange, sometimes they work, sometimes they don't... But as an overall it is a great car, and if you drive it on good, long roads i recommend it!

it's a cool car
