    I fell in love the 1st time I drove it!

    I purchased my 2000 Lexus GS300 a year ago, with 251,000 miles. Let me tell you, I have had nothing but great times in this car every time I drive it. With such high mileage one would think it's a dog but it's not. It has the inline 6 cylinder 3.0 2jz! Powerful and best running motor. The only problems I have had to replace is the O2 SENSOR, and a sensor in the transmission. All I did on my own, also replaced the alternator. Now this car is fast stock, smooth ride and luxurious interior. This is definitely a reliable car would recommend everyone to buy a Lexus in the GS series. GREAT CAR!!

    Best car I ever owned

    I had this GS for 16 years. Very powerful, smooth well built. Nice soft leather. Beautiful interior. Put $250.00 in repairs. That's it, Top notch fit and finish. 21 mpg average, 26-27 mpg highway. Not many luxury cars if any can match that reliability.

    Fast engine and luxurious interior!

    This is my favorite type of Lexus. The 2nd generation engine is fast and reliable. It’s brand new updated completely blacked out interior Makes this car a one of a kind.

    Very reliable. Maintenance-free car to own

    Perfect balance of luxury and power. Easy to drive and maintain. Spacious and smooth ride. This is my 3rd GS and I like the older body style 200-2006 much more than the newer design versions. All in all, you cannot go wrong with Lexus as a brand, and the GS is a good mix of size, power, and luxury compared to other models.

    My third GS!

    I started with the GS 430 back in '02, and later had two gs 300s back to back. I did not miss the extra horsepower. The 300 has plenty of pick up and is powerful enough in highways. Most of all, it is downright the most reliable car I have ever owned. I also love the body style more that the revised styling in '06.

    Incredible car with 117,000 miles!

    I have owned this car for 4 years now. Bought it in 2010 with 94,000 miles. CarFax certified 1-owner. Had good service records. I thought I had a major suspension problem until I changed the tires to Michelin! Improved the car's ride and performance substantially. This is a perfect mid sized car with excellent cabin space and considerable leg room. Engine is perfect and fast enough for me!

    My 13 Year Old Lexus!

    I bought the GS300 used in 2010 as my retirement car. It was a Car Fax Certified 1 owner with 95,000 miles. In the last 3 years I have put on about 13,000 miles and spent no more than $1,000 for repairs. It still looks good and drives very nicely. Surprisingly fast for a 6 cylinder (from the Toyota Supra) or maybe it is just me. Brakes are fantastic too! Repairs included upper and lower control arms, power seat, transmission service.... really more service items.

    Rubbish

    The car was average inside but reliability was terrible. The I6 was underpowered low down in the RPM range and wasn't economical. Then at about 100k miles the timing was out and a valve impacted a piston damaging the block. Lexus wanted $6k to repair so its just sitting in my driveway broken and collecting dust. Dreadful car avoid at all costs. I replaced it with an E class that has been perfection.
