engine noise and A/C problems
I have had 50 cars in my lifetime. the last five were the Lexus 250, 300, 400,330, & 350 since Lexus became a car. This 2007 has 2 major problems which Lexus has not been able to correct. #1 the engine makes a noise when cold that sounds like the tappet noise of previous years the engine idles rough. Lexus tells me it is the fuel injectors and is normal. My 97 Nissan Altima was quieter and did not make this type noise or rough idle. #2 the A/C covers my dash board area with tiny white specs. Lexus has change the evaporator twice and A/C filters numerous times. It is still spewing and I think it might be causing me a health problem with my lungs. I really am disappointed in the year

Overpriced Toyota
Traded in 01 Merc E class. The Lexus rides very smoothly but understeers severely and feels boaty on curves. The ruby red paint quality is pitiful with the slightest impact even with such items as cardboard or plastic scratching the paint surface. The car was supposed to be a Lexus CPO but came with several problems including warped front brake rotors, dead batteries in key fob, floor board shimmy, unbalanced wheels and paint colored wax covering prior owner's scratches which washed off during the first car wash. CPO may only be worth the warranty, the rest is a gimmick.
This car is great except...
I have a major problem with the paint chipping on this car, I think its absolutely ridiculous that everyday I have another chipping on the hood of my car, and it only had 76,000 miles on it when this problem beagn. I have read other reviews and people have the same issue. it takes away from the value. In addition I have replaced the transmission and water pump. I get regular oil changes every 3,000 to 5,000 miles. I wish I could get another paint job, I would feel so much better about the money I've spent on repairs.
