RX 300 poor long term investment
A nice car for the missus - she loves it, size and drivability (except for the horrendous small turning circle) - Lexus reliability on this vehicle is a myth - the same things go wrong every two years - there is nothing worse than intermittent problems that leave you stranded!

Fix the Rattles
This is my second RX300. I had a 1999 and now drive a 2001 with the Navigation system. The Navigation system is accurate to within about 5 feet. Impressive!! It's great in Minnesota winters; very sure-footed. Great sound system, very comfortable, nice high ride that feels like a car. I drive a lot of miles and I feel very safe in this SUV.
RX300-What's There Not to Like!
This is my second RX300 (my previous was a 1999), and if Lexus keeps it up, I may never switch to another vehicle! It rides comfortably and drives instinctively. The gas mileage is superb for a SUV its class--19mph. On REGULAR gas! This is for around town in the Washington Metro area! The styling is appealing and the High Intensity Discharge Headlights are great.
I've Wanted One Since 1999
Since 1999, I have found this to be the best looking vehicle on the road. Apparently, so does everyone else as you can see one every time you're stopped at an intersection! I was between this car and the Acura MDX, and this car basically won out due to looks and the slightly more luxurious interior. The acceleration is slower than what I'm used to with luxury sedans, but you can get it going when you really need to. Very comfortable ride, and I just love driving this car. I'm only 28, so I guess I'm young for this car, but I don't care. I just love it.
