1995 Lexus GS 300

Pros: quality, prestige, smooth ride, dependability

Cons: slow from 0-60, no-thrills performance, soft steering

The Bottom Line: Reliability, reliability, reliability. You just can not find a better car for the money that will look good, run forever and be prestigious.

Review: This has been my car for a very long time, now. I bought it used and still believe it is one of the best cars to buy used. It is a Lexus in every respect and is totally reliable. The factory paint job is one of the best I have ever seen. The only...

Pros: Dramatic styling, quiet, comfort, reliable

Cons: Lexus dealers

The Bottom Line: Soon-to-be classic car, quiet, luxurious, roomy, and just plain fun to drive.

Review: I have a suspicion that 20 years hence, the 93-95 models of this car will be regarded as classic. Th ...

Pros: Quality workmanship, comfort, prestige, quality of service

Cons: Cost of maintenance

Review: Leased a Lexus GS300 in 1995, before they changed body style to current style. I now have 140,000 miles on my car, and I have had absolutely no problems, outside of wear and tear. I'm on my third set of tires, and on the verge of having to do a brake...

Pros: Well built, trouble free

Cons: Slow, expensive to service.

Review: The car lacked low end torque, which made it slow, but it was well built and nothing ever went wrong. I never had to repair anything. The price of the vehicle was too high, and the cost of routine service (at the Lexus dealership) was ridiculous. ...

Pros: solid ride, quiet

Cons: Reliability, dealer service, service and parts costs, company response to problems

Review: I owned a Lexus GS300 and had the worst experience with a car in my 40 years of driving. I paid twice as much for the Lexus as any other new car that I ever bought and the Lexus was the only car that ever stranded me (twice) and had to be towed. The...
