Used 2010 Lexus GS 350 Sedan Consumer Reviews
Serial Lexus Buyer
This is my 4th Lexus. My first was a LS400, I have had 2 GS300, and this is my first GS350. All of them I drove well over 200k with the only issues being due to normal wear and tear. The only things I find a little awkward with my GS350 are the truck lid (very heavy and hard to open when hands are full). The stereo for the price of the car is more suited for a non luxury vehicle. My daughters both drive Chevy vehicles and both of their stereo's are way better than mine. My last and final complaint is where the USB and Aux ports are located. They are basically hidden to the very back of the center console which makes them very hard to reach. I had to have my grandson to plug in my cords because of the lack of light and the awkward placement. Other than that, the car is wonderful and I look forward to my next Lexus purchase in a few years.

A nice, luxury car at a fair price.
Very enjoyable car. Compared with an Acura RL, Infiniti M and the new Buick LaCrosse. If the LaCrosse was RWD & had just a a few more luxury features, that would have been the car to own at $6,000 less. Nevertheless, very happy with the GS. Performance is great. Good time to buy a loaded GS as the 2011 model is coming soon with a re-design. 15 MPG in real world city driving and 29 MPG hwy driving at 65 MPG with a/c on.

Nice Car, Not a Race car
1000 Mile check up just done, nothing wrong. Reset computer options @ dealer to our preference ( 5 pages of options). Park assist a must as well as navigation with back up camera. Car has very good comfort programing. Such as Interior lights come on @ night when car is approached with transponder. Nag only goes to night mode when it is dark outside lights on or off. Flawless. Comfort car not a race car though. 3500 cc direct injection engine AWD gets 20 mpg city (all our miles are city) 2 mpg better than our 07 Honda Accord V6 3000cc. The $52K is a bargain compare to Jaguar 60K, BMW 65K, Mercedes 65K, or Audi A6 60K for the features and comfort. COMFORT!
Poor highway speed handling
Have complained about wandering at highway speeds. Car requires continuous steering corrections. Factory rep checked, realigned and dealer has changed tire brands. Still the same. I don't trust Lexus (aka Toyota) to admit any problem especially since factory rep says he has never heard of any probs like this. He admitted he never reads Lexus sites. Relationship between electric steering, wheel/tire and suspension doesn't seem to be near as precise as my mbz clk500 but this car is as my wife describes: "jittery." I don't Dare take my eyes of the road for a second. I might end up three feet into another lane or shoulder of the road. Have 7,500 miles on odo.
Excellent but miss my SUV
I purchased this Lexus in Dec, 2009 and traded in my 2007 Acura MDX. I really miss having an SUV. If you like sedans, this car is excellent. The car is super quiet and the ride is very comfortable. No problems at low or high speed. Equp.with Dunlop tires. The AWD is fantastic and this year was a good one to test this car with all the snow we had. Breaks and power steering are good with no issues. I only have 3200 miles but so far Lexus gets an A+
