I have owned Toyotas for years and still have and love my Land Cruiser. My wife drives an Avalon which has given us great service over the years. I built my Lexus 300H online last year and got it just as I specified. It has exceeded my expectations for a year and I can't believe I waited until last year to get one. The Fire Agate Pearl color is just beautiful and I have no regrets in getting my first Lexus whatsoever.

7Bought the 2014 300H 7/2016 ( 7 years). Only got 48K miles on it. In the city, I get 35 to 37 mpg. Highway, it is more like 38mpg. In spring/fall like weather when I am not using either A/C or heat, in 45mpg roads, I used to get 45 mpg if it is not stop-n-go. MPG has gone down over the years. New small non-hybrid are getting close close to 35 mpg now. Car is very comfortable. Seat vents work great especially in the summer. Heated steering wheel is a welcome addition in the cold mornings. Since it was 'Dealer Certified', all maintenance (oil changes and other fluids, air filter changes, tire rotation and car washes) have all been free. Obviously this ended after 3 years. But now I have to pay. But watch out, every now and then, the dealer tries to 'sell' another service that is not covered (like wheel alignment - which is not necessary unless you have been hitting lots pot holes or curbs). The dealer service area is very clean - and full of light refreshments (fruit, hot chocolate, cookies, chips, soda, etc.) plus several rooms to watch whatever TV channel you want while you wait. Did I say they also have WiFi in case you need it. Be careful about 'Dealer' recommending 45K service or such. Ask specifically what will be done. For me they said the service was to check all the fluids, change oil and filter (all for $475). Its up to you what you decide. I got all that done at the Toyota dealer for $80. Am sure you can find a cheaper place just insist on synthetic oil. In 6 1/2 years, I have (apart for new tires) spent less than $200.

Of 50 years of buying all types of cars, I can honestly say that this 2014 Lexus hybrid beats them all hands down. As I trade cars every two or three years I have ordered a Tesla Model X and it breaks my heart to have to part with my 300h but no garage space to keep it. It's the best car I have ever owned.

I got this car and I loved it, i could not make any bad comment about it. But recently it start gives me headaches! The hybrid system stop working and engine turns off in middle of the road, I took it to dealer, and they kept the car for a week and gave it back without knowing what was the problem! After 3 hours of driving, I had to call thow truck to take it bad because of same reason! And still they dont know what is wrong !
