I've only owned 5 Lexus vehicles.
The best Lexus I've ever owned quality wise was a '06 IS250 AWD.
Worst Lexus was a '08 GS350 AWD.
Present RX350 has been very good.

"only owned 5 lexus vehicles." lol. If only everyone were so lucky...

I have only owned my is250... so far so good with it.

Not lucky with the money lost by not keeping the vehicles long like I should.
I'm slowing down now.

I thought they sorted out the issues with the AWD GS. I have only had 1 Lexus. I like the car but it would be great if it handled a little better. I cant stand the electric steering

Probably the award for most trouble free goes to the IS300. However, best driving satisfaction overall is the RX330

Hmm - I think the mid-late gen LS400s were pretty damn reliable. The '99 I used to own was great. I wanted something newer and a little more fuel efficient so ended up with an ES.

Even in the 2 months I've had it the O2 sensor went bad (under warranty). But I owned the LS as a third owner 105k miles until 166k miles and it never had to go in to the shop for a thing. Always started during the cold Chicago winters even after sitting for a week at a time outside and never left me stranded. If it wasn't for my fear of some big ticket items simply wearing out and needing replacement, I would have kept it.

I'm on my 2nd Lexus. I had 07 IS 250 and now have a 2010 IS 250. I love it. Was considering getting BMW 135 or 335, but I see way to many 3 Series out there on the road. I like the 2010 much better than the 07...but I guess anything new is going to be better.

our sc430 was easily the best lexus we have had out of the 5 we have owned.

Still own both of them, and both have been reasonably trouble-free although the IS300 is starting to have problems. Driving-wise? Definitely the IS. Comfort and features? Definitely the RX400h

RXSF

yes, even though I said IS300, it is starting to break down slowly. I have changed two O2 sensors already.

MadMax96

I wouldn't call that breaking down... O2 sensors do wear out. So unless you have less than like 80k miles I'd call that acceptable. In my case it went out with 38k miles so I'd call it more of a part failure than end of life.

I've owned 3. I drove my GS300 to 190k, it started seeing probs at about 175k. My fav by far is the LS460L, so far so good (w/ exceptions to the recalls)

I have only owned 1 Lexus and so fr my GS is ok...not to enthusiastic about some of the cold weather rattles but that is ok.

We're on our 3rd and 4th Lexus. Here's the line-up:

95 SC300
97 ES300
06 GS300 - still have
07 GS350 - still have

The GS350 is the fastest or quickest because the SC was older and was only 225 hp. I'd still have to say the SC was the best because it handled well after the coilover install and that was a lot of fun. It was comfortable and my long legs fit well. It was long and sleek, too. It was just too slow....but I loved it.

RXSF

it has 50 thousand miles, haha. And they broke within 3 months of each other. I think at the Lexus dealership, it was 300 each
