    Best Car Investment I've Ever Made.

    All service done at Lexus Dealership. Original owner had a lease and traded it in after 3 years. I bought it and have had it ever since. Great car! Extremely reliable and rides awesome and great pick-up.

    Quick luxury car that is fun to drive

    I have had the 2007 version for six years, have put 50k of my own miles on it, and I still love the car. It has held up well and still puts a smile on my face when walk up to it- and when I put the accelerator down. It has lots of acceleration and gets about 26 mpg on a highway trip. Trunk is small but usable. I plan on keeping this car for a few more years.

    2008 Lexus Gs450h

    This is a car that has the mpg of a 4 cylinder but the performance of an 8 cylinder engine. A perfect combination of hp, instant torque, MPG and smooth ride.

    My wife won't ever get rid of it!

    We bought this car back in 2010 as it came off of a lease. I never thought we would own a Lexus and I never thought my wife could get any vehicle that could get 25 MPG or better consistently. She is an SUV kind of gal and when we owned one in the past she consistently got 15 MPG or less. It just killed our gas budget because she drove so much. After a car accident we found ourselves having to replace a good car. My wife wanted to get back into a SUV, but I was against it because of the MPG. Then she looked at this Lexus and I thought, is she crazy?!?! Much to my surprise, we got a good deal and could afford it. A greater surprise was the 26-27 MPG she consistently gets. The hybrid feature keeps the vehicle running in "golf cart mode" and saves gas like crazy. Great feel, great look, and it just keeps running. I heard that Lexus, while expensive up front, is the lowest "cost of ownership" vehicle on the road. I am a firm believer. It matters not, my wife will never get rid of this thing!

    Best Car for the Money

    Amazing all around. Great car for the money. It's basically a 4 door luxury sedan that's faster than a Mustang GT, hold its value better than anything in its class, while getting fuel economy of a 4 cylinder vehicle.

    Awesome GS450h

    I purchased the 2008 model a few months back and it has not disappointed. The quiet ride, power, included features, and performance gives owners more bang for their buck. The only drawbacks are the infrequent loud squeals from the front brakes, usually small trunk space, and nonmatching spare tire (which did not come with my car). Overall, I would rather be driving somewhere in my car than going to work. It has been on two long distance trips thus far without problems. AWESOME CAR!
