One of the Best
After driving this car for a week straight, I have to say that I believe it is one of best cars on the used car market. Its got great style, not too bold, but not too understated either. The engine is a work of art; only making 225 hp, and yet it feels like so much more. The transmission shifts perfectly and is barely noticable. The handling is not the best I've driven, but is still great. The steering is amazing in both feel and weight. However, none of this compares to the interior. It is simple yet very functional, and everything is in great reach from the drivers seat. The seats are a little firm, but offer great lateral support. Finally, this being a Lexus, it will last a long time.
Personal genuine ratings of Lexus GS300
In general terms I'm very happy with this car and it's a great long distance tourer. By far the greatest quality of this vehicle has to be the beautifully smooth, quick well made, and durable engine. In short I have driven many thousands of happy motoring miles in it and it has proved to be the most reliable car I've owned up to date.

Lexus 4 years and Running
Overall good car. Had to replace battery at 36,000 miles and the front caliper at 51,000 miles.Had the front seat redied at 33,000.They were looking kinda worn. The transmission kinda acts weird on these models when they are cold. But have had no problems with it. I have had it in on all factory visits and the dealership has done the work.
Great car!!
I purchased this car used about 6 mos. ago with 36k miles on it and so far have been very happy with it. I could've gotten a BMW 5series at same price point but really wanted a reliable car and one that wouldn't be costly to fix when compared to the other luxury cars. The quality of the car feels very good even...much better than my friends Acura 3.5 Also like that you can set different climate control temperatures for the driver and passenger.
Lexus for life
My wife and I have had this car for 4 1/2 years, putting 81000 miles on it. Everytime someone new gets in, they are amazed it is a 99. We only take the car in for its routine service. We have had the battery go out twice, but the Texas heat is hard on batteries. The dealership replaced it both times, no questions asked, even when the car was out of warranty. Lexus service is outstanding. GPS is a must have, and extremely easy to use.
