New Lexus

Recently traded an Acura RDX for a 2021 Lexus N300. The car drives well and the basics are fine. I am currently involved in an argument with Toyota (the manufacturer over the discomfort of the driver's seat. When I sit on the seat it feels as if there are two hard objects under my butt, So far I am not getting any satisfaction, Toyota customer service keeps saying to take it up with the dealer and the dealer says they are all like that. Even the salesman agreed with me that something is wrong. IF all Lexus 300N seats are like that then I wouldn't recommend buying one. The car comes with four instruction manuals. Too many and too complicated.

This is my first Lexus purchase and I am incredibly thrilled! The warranty offered on a Certified Pre-Owned Lexus is unbelievable! You are better off with a used vehicle rather than a brand new. The smaller SUV is the best of both worlds. It is neither too large or too big. It is super sporty and has an amazing ride! Get out and test drive one today!

Fine for my wife, but not so much for me.

We got the 2021 NX 300 Sport for my wife. She is 5.1" tall and absolutely loves this car. She gave me the 2020 Toyota Highlander we bought her the year before because she felt it was just a bit big for her. Now having driven both cars, to me the Highlander is more comfortable because I am 6.O Ft tall and I feel cramped in the 300. The sporty ride is not as smooth as the Highlander, and jostles me around in the cabin. Rear compartment is a bit small, but works for small purchases at the grocery store. As stated above, my wife really likes the car, but for someone my size, I would consider other choices.

It’s a great car. Super comfortable, fast enough, great functionality, terrible value hold. Can’t believe how it went well below the residual value. But Don’t forget it’s a Toyota and will be a lot of rattling noises from everywhere. Service was fine, terrible Lexus dealership experience at the end of lease. Stay away from Tustin and other OC dealers. Lexus USA has a terrible customer service and brand team as well. STAY AWAY FROM THIS BRAND IN THE US.

Just bought a used NX with 23k. I disagree with the review and find it very fun to drive. The F-sport is sporty and sharp. I do agree that the touchpad is clunky to use. And I was surprised that the power back hatch wasn’t a standard feature. But over all I am pleased.
