    RELIABLE, COMFORTABLE, AND GREAT FEATURES

    Lexus is my favorite car brand. I've owned several over 25 years. I've never needed major service so maintenance costs are very low. The interior is extremely comfortable with many great interactive features.

    Smoothest ride ever

    We were very surprised at how smooth the Lexus was to drive. The interior is very roomy and we love the two tone leather. Surprised at the value for the price. Not the cheapest car but rides like the most expensive.

    Love the quiet ride & "toys"!

    I love everything about my new Lexus! I am a techie and this car is loaded with all the extras. And for my peace of mind, even though it is 4 years old, I was still able to buy a Lexus warranty. The ride is so quiet I don't even hear the engine running! It's a beautiful, high quality car...especially for the price!
