Used Cars for Sale in Elk River, MN

I leased this car because I have wanted one of these since the original one came out. I was originally looking for one that was older, around 2011 year model, but Lexus had a lease deal that was too good to pass up. My first impressions were great, it was good looking, fast, and felt really solid. I received something in the mail to give a review, but I didn't feel like three months was acceptable time to review a car. I have had the car 3 years and I just returned it. I didn't buy it out right and ill explain that. It started with the dealership experience, when I was younger, I worked for a Toyota dealership that treated their customers fantastic and I expected an upper echelon Toyota dealer to be better at this but unfortunately not. Ill talk about price first. It was priced a little much for what you get, and the service that you need to do is expensive. Getting an oil change is about $150 which is required by the lease to be done by Lexus every 10000 miles but it is the same price for the inspection that happens on the 5000 mile increments. Having owned a Toyota previously, I had it serviced at Toyota and the oil change was a fraction of that. Quality of the car was excellent. The only issue I had was with the brakes. The squealed almost the whole time I had the car. It was loud. Embarrassingly loud. I had it tiered all the way up to Lexus Corporate but all they would do is provide new pads, I had to pay for all the labor. Needless to say they got back a squeaky car. This car wasn't the only IS that I heard with this problem. The awd system performed excellent, the few times I drove it in snowy conditions, it never felt like I was slipping or about to be out of control. The suspension was great, it rode nice and handled excellent. The manual mode in the gearbox felt allot better than I expected and I enjoyed playing with that quite a bit. I was quite pleased with the mechanics. I would say the only gripe I have is that when I needed to pass something or just speed up a little, quite often it would kick down too many gears and tear off like I floored it with just breathing on the throttle. Not a deal breaker but kinda weird. Now to the inside. The seats were excellent, even the rear had enough room for passengers to be comfortable. The front buckets hugged me nicely and the heated option worked great. The HVAC was decent, the touch panel for the temp was a little touchy but cool to show people how to adjust it. The cup holder and storage area is very lacking, the center console and glove box was too small and oddly shaped. I think the cup holder area is better than the previous models but the size provided wouldn't fit a camelbak bottle and neither would the spots in the doors. The infotainment system is lacking also. The radio controls were awkward but that was something I knew when I got it based on reviews of Lexus in general. I think they have fixed this recently and I got a loaner that was a year newer and there were small improvements to some of the tech in the car. One of the gripes I have regarding the tech is that the car came with remote start in the app that you get for the first year for free but after that it is very expensive compared to other car company apps. I also was not told how to remote start the car from the key fob even though it does but only while the app is active. The keyless entry was only touch on the two front doors while other Toyotas that were older have it on the rears. The only problem with this, is that if I wanted to unlock only the driver door, I would have that programmed to do so but if I had a passenger, I would have to unlock the doors from the inside. I had mine set to unlock all. Another cost that isn't known is that some of the options are customizable, but you cant change them from the menu and you have to have the dealer do it. The dealer offered this once for free but there was a charge every adjustment after. There are quite a few cars where you have more adjustability on your own. The seats fold and the trunk fits quite a bit. All in all this was a very nice car, I would probably buy a newer used one or the one I was initially looking for or even an original one. These are very sporty and on the small side. I needed a truck, but I wouldn't have purchased this particular one because of my disappointment dealing with the brake problem anyway. We were planning on purchasing it but after a while we decided not to.

The RC 350 is a smooth ride, yet has a sporty look. It's easy to park in a tight parking space or parallel park. Has a nice kick to get you out of jam if need be. Recommended highly !!!!!

Love this SUV! Rides smooth and comfy. It's a total different experience for me and I love it. I have to get used to the size still but that slowly but surely happening. It was purchased used but looked as if it was a 2019 as opposed to 2016 with only $23K miles on it. No regrets on this Lexus and so far, others love it too!

The RC Coupe is a nice couple with real good performance. The seats in back are very tight and the car can use some weight reduction, but overall great car.

Love the Macan! You get the utility of a small SUV with the absolute drivability of a Porsche. Holds the road like a small sports car. The 3.0L V6 in my model S has enough power to be crazy fun without getting me too many tickets... Although the 3.6L would be cool. The interior is very comfortable with amazing fit and finish. Leather is nice and soft. Back seats don't have a ton of room for adults, but I don't ride back there!! It is pricey to buy and to maintain, but it IS a Porsche. When I'm ready, I'll buy another one.

This car has terrific comfort, and the drive is smooth and quiet. It feels very safe, and the styling inside and out is sleek and modern. I love it!

This car is wonderful , met all my comfort needs , smooth ride, exterior and interior is in perfect shape, low mileage, has 2 keys

Test drove it would love to buy one. Drive was great, has all the latest safety and comfort features. Only lacks apple car play. Rest is perfect!

This is my 6th Lexus, would never own any other car. This one is GS 350 F Sport and has all the options my LS had but a little smaller, no problem since it’s just me. Extremely happy with the 3 1/2 year warranty and 4 maintenance trips free.

Comfortable and dependable; a classy car that is well appointed and attractively styled. Preferred this model over the newer comic book styling. Lots of bells and whistles but not over the top.

This is a beautiful car inside and out. It really stands out, handles well and fun to drive. The hp is more than adequate, I can't find one thing I'm not completely satisfied with in the 1 month I've had the car.

This car practically drives itself with its lane safety and front radar features that force the car to stay in one lane and never have a rear end accident. Not to mention the cruise control that allows the car to accelerate and decelerate on its own.

Excellent overall quality, tons of power and sticks to the road. We enjoy all the features and interior space. Every piece of this SUV is refined. Lexus will be our choice in vehicles going forward.

Comfortable, classy, and nice quiet ride. Great styling and handling. Great on fuel. Very nice highway driving at higher speeds. Very pleased with the end result following research

My new caw=r is a 2016 Buick Enclave and I love it! White frost exterior w/ ebony leather interior; it's so luxurious! Best car ever.

Absolutely love the Lexus GX Luxury. We have owned several SUVS including an MDX, Explorer, Lexus RX330... This one was love as first drive. We have known Lexus to be one of the most reliable brands we have owned, but with children I didn’t want an RX again. I looked at Range Rover, Mercedes and Infiniti because we knew we wanted a larger sized SUV. I also wanted the “captain” seats in the middle. This car is loaded with features... Enough technology to make a tech loving family happy. I love the fact that I can start my car from an app. I love being high up off of the ground to see around traffic. I love the soft leather. We have had so much fun and so many compliments on this beast. Not regretting it. For those who say the ride is bumpy... it is slightly, but not more than any other pricey SUV. It’s actually pretty smooth. It’s a tall vehicle. It’s got a truck-like vibe with all of the luxury and bells and whistles you expect from Lexus. That’s what we wanted. We have the Luxury Sport package— only because this car was available. I would have been happy even without the spaceship like buttons and rear heated seats. Overall this family of four is in love.

Not a sturdy car, outdated in technology. Too much plastic inside and outside. Sports grill looks good but very delicate. Lexus must update this car. Doesn’t have the comforts for the driver or passenger.

It’s a great car I love the exterior styling, the engine is quiet over all until you step on it. It comes to life and let’s you know it’s there. It’s not sports car fast but in sport mode it’s swift and allows you to maneuver how you need to. The interior is well put together and the seats are more comfortable than Camaro or corvette seats. Which were the two vehicles I was heavily considering before choosing the Lexus RC 350. I chose comfort,proven reliability and a 10x better looking interior dashboard over speed , low reliability and much lower resale value. And also I want to give a shout out to Newport Lexus for great customer service and a great deal.

Absolutely love everything about the car. I would only say I’m missing a bit of storage in front (sunglasses, etc). Love the size, options, speed, comfort - smooth ride. Everything else is perfection!!

This car has been one of the best cars I’ve ever owned. And, I’ve owned at least 20 vehicles in my lifetime. I’ve not had any extra expenses.
