I am a tall person so the seat is a little short. The power locks have messed up and really pricey too replace/fix. This has been a great car. I have 272,000 miles on it. I have replaced the timing belt one time since I got it. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another one with a hundred thousand on it. ad of today, July 25, 2021, I still drive this at 329,000 miles. this us still the best automobile I have ever owned. I still only do regular maintenance on it.

6 years later and still loving my RX-300

Justed changed by rear tail-light on my 2003 RX-300 and got to thinking that besides a set of tires and oil changes I haven't had to do anything to this truck. It still rides like a new car and I'm getting 17 MPG in town and 26 on the road. What more could you want from a car. My dealer is great for normal service (but high priced, I guess they all are) but I always drive off with a job well done. Might go for a 2010, but it would take a lot to get me out of this model, and have car payments all over again!

Over all the RX 300 is a very good car! It is easy to drive as the steering feels effortless. The design is good but needs some refinements such as more room. The ride is stiffer than the MDX. Fuel economy is fair at best.

This Toyota MDT, knows all about the Toyota and Lexus lines. With this said, the Lexus RX300 AWD is one of the best cars ever made witch shows all it was designed to good. Lexus changed engine in 2004 and started making them heavier for a much more pricy RX. My first one,1998 RX2003 Lexus RX300Awd which is still in our garage. A SUV that I would drive anywhere with any road condition.(I bet you now know why I say this is best SUV on th300Awd saved my life when a BMW going to fast, ran a Red Light I was driving across with my green light. My drivers side with me having this BMW hitting me around 60mph into my drivers door. I after looking over knew I could drive my "Totaled RX" back to my Toyota/Lexus garage, which I did. I then bought my 2000 Lexus, my 2nd RXAwd which had 280 thousand when I bought it, I sold it a few years later with 330,000miles and bought my 2003 RX300Awd that had low miles. I can and do drive it where ever we want any time of year.
