Got my attention!
Great car, best car I have ever driven. Easy to drive, just the right technology, not too many gadgets! Outstanding in bad weather when placed in Snow Mode.

Can't go wrong with the RX 350!
Shopped extensively online until I came across a certified 2012 RX 350 with 45k miles. Got a great deal ($49k new - mine was $31k), and the vehicle has been superb in most every way. I knew what I was getting into, having read all the reviews, so I was not expecting a sports car like ride. It does what it is supposed to do with silky precision and great reliability. Service costs have been reasonable so far - it is not exciting to drive but it feels as good at 10 mph as it does at 90 mph. I'm anxious to see how it handles in the snow and up in ski country. the controls are intuitive and easy to learn (rain sensing wipers, Bluetooth, nav, sat, etc.) It is a very refined SUV, seems like all the bugs have been worked out. No breakdowns or problems - I'll be putting 200k plus on this one!

Great Car!!!
Pros: extremely reliable, I bought this car new for 8 years now and 112K miles. Zero problem. Comparing to 2000 BMW 528i, the problem arise as soon at first month and every other months for 4 years. This was German's most reliable car for 2000. Can't imagine on other German cars. Transmission fluid service ($10/quart plus $45 labor) is much cheaper than 2016 Honda Pilot Touring (9 speed) for $500. Just change oil, tires, brake pads and brake fluids and the ride is still awesome. Con: once a while the back seats have rattling noises on concrete roads around North Texas. Something with the rivets and dealer attempted to fix it once. The noise came back less frequent but I can tolerate this noise.

Almost perfect
I have had my Lexus for a year now. Purchased used it looked brand new. Beautiful vehicle - I get compliments all the time. Great acceleration, quiet, safe, not very good gas mileage... I love everything about it except the navigation! Okay around town but on long trips totally worthless; tells me to exit highway on almost every off ramp, tells me to turn around when I know I’m going in the correct direction. Honestly, this system could easily cause an accident and will, at the very least, raise your blood pressure. Bluetooth also cuts out which is very annoying. My mechanic says it’s a great car and I agree, just happy I didn’t buy it new and pay extra for horrible navigation. I am 63 and hope to have this car until I either die or move to Mexico - whichever comes first.

Top Rated Safety Pick
This vehicle was my 3rd Lexus and second RX. It is a very dependable car and I haven't had any problems other than unreliable Bluetooth connections. The dealer says it's the phone, Apple says it's the vehicle. I can connect and stay connected everywhere else so I'm blaming the vehicle. That's my only problem and it's intermittent so you know how that goes.
