This is my second car and I love it. I have changed very little things to it such as 3 tvs and the IS 19' inch chrome rims. I also have a spoiler on it. The car has a quiet ride and has a very smooth ride also.

Best Car Ever

I'm a salesmanager and travel extensively. I trade cars every 2 years until now. My GS is the finest most trouble-free vehicle I've ever owned. And my Lexus dealer is more than terrific. Comfort, handling, looks, are all top notch. The ONLY complaints would be lack of steering wheel controls for sound system and the requirement of premium fuel for a car with modest (200) horespower. A more accurate quote would be,"Lexus, there really isn't any substitute"

GS300 in Georgia

The GS300 caught my attention due to Lexus' reputation for perfection plus this car has a sporty element to the styling and handling. My only major dislike about the car is the method the climate control system uses in the winter to establish the cabin temperature that results in blowing cold air on the driver. This is by design and unfixable by the dealer. It makes driving in the 30 degree temps sometimes frustrating if you do not like cold air in the winter even in the manual mode setting.

Flawless, solid. Feels and performs like a new car after 48,000 miles. Build quality is beyond anything in its class. I know why the doemstics are dying.

GS is a great car

I think this car is great, you cant here the motor let alone the road noise, mine has navigation and it brings out the beauty of the dash. I also enjoy the frame work of the dash in relation to the windsheild. The heated seats work awsome for when I travel to the snow or on a cold night.- My chick really diggs it too. On the exterior I have onyx black paint with a spoiler. I dont care to much for the grill which I am going to have replaced, HID front lamps are awsome, dont care to much for the lexus crome 16 in rims so will be replacing those.

High mileage and still strong

I acquired this 2000 Lexus GS 300 sports for almost 7 years now. A hand me down from my brother in-law due to rear engine main seal leaking. The current mileage is 250K. I never had any major issues aside from normal wear and tear (i.e., brakes, vacuum hoses, serpent belts, valve cover gasket, oil pan seal, tires, etc.) I replace with OEM parts that can be bought on-line or junkyard and YouTube on how to DIY. Compare this car to my wife's 1999 BMW 328i that has more issues and the check engine light is always on. A rare 2JZ-GE Supra engine gives you the fast acceleration on the freeway but eats lot of gas, 16 gallons full tank last me only for 4 days of daily driving.

I have one to sell not because I want to, but because I am moving far away and need the cash

I wish I have all the money to own it since new, anyway, purchased at 66k miles for $12k, just put another 5000, so far, did tune-up, O2 sensor replaced. Looks new and still shiny paint.
