| Answer to: Which Lexus should I buy | 19Relevance | 4 years ago | Alex G | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| I think ( 70% sure from memory) that Lexus test their vehicles in all climates and make changes accordingly. So Lexus may be the better choice. If I was buying a car for my father I would pick the Lexus LS line. If you go off the wikipedia article, it mentions this: The 1UR-FE is based on the 1UR-FSE but lacks the D4-S direct injection technology. Originally used for Lexus vehicles in the Middle East, it was introduced in 2010 in other markets to replace the 2UZ-FE engine in truck and SUV applications. This engine produces 347 hp (259 kW; 352 PS) at 6,400 ... | |||||

| Toyota / Lexus Turbos | 19Relevance | 5 years ago | Mike in TN | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| Scotty, I watched a review of yours for a Lexus LS500 recently. (I don't recall the year, but it had a V8.) You said that it is a great car, and that the turbos will last forever, since Lexus has done a great job with turbo technology. I then saw a comment you made about the upcoming Tundra, and you said that since it has two turbos and a V6, you would suggest getting a 2021 Tundra with the big V8. I'm curious why you favor the Lexus with the turbos but not the Tundra with the turbos. Is it because the Lexus has a V8 and the Tundra will have a V6? Is ... | |||||

| There aren't really that many problems with the US made ones like other manufacturers have which is a good sign for Lexus and other factors are more important imo. But this is short term. There isn't recalls spreading on the news about us made Lexus products like there are with Hyundai and Kia, but we still don't know long term, though considering Lexus, you should be just fine with either. | |||||
| Trilogy question: 2020 Lexus Rx 350 F sport 2 or 2019 Lexus Rx 350 Executive? | 14Relevance | 6 years ago | KellyB | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| Community: Thanks to your previous help, I've got my options narrowed down to both of these options. It seems I can get a better "deal" on the 2020 model because of a much lower interest rate Lexus can offer. Both cars have about 5K Miles on them, but of course one is newer with less features and the other is one year older but fully loaded. Just wanted to know the opinion of the community of what the better value would be. Would you go with the lower payment less features newer Lexus or older fully load Lexus paying 5% in interest for the privilege of a ma ... | |||||

| Answer to: What vehicle to choose? | 11Relevance | 3 years ago | Chuck Tobias | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| Forget the Jeep unless you love huge repair bills. Compare the level of problems common to those vehicles: The low mileage on the Lexus is suspicious and should be verified. At that price the Lexus is being offered at about the highest dealer sale price listed at Kelley Blue Book. If you proceed, have the Lexus thoroughly checked out by a good mechanic before purchase. There's a lot that can go wrong with an old luxury car. | |||||
| 1998 Lexus GS 300 overheated | 19Relevance | 5 years ago | Sunny Dan | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| ... driving my mom's 1998 Lexus GS 300 sedan (~192,000 miles) (3.0L Inline 6 VVT-i) to go pick up my film cameras from repair, I noticed smoke coming out from the car after a minute I exited the I-5 motorway Northbound Los Angeles on Katella Ave towards the Disneyland District. I saw a little bit of smoke and didn't think much of it at first, then I saw more smoke and realized "Oh sh** the car is overheating!" and turned on the heater to full blast (thanks for that advice Scotty) and found a spot to immediately pull over. I opened the hood and propped it up wit ... | |||||
| Answer to: Lexus IS 300h just as reliable as other Lexus models? | 19Relevance | 6 years ago | Kerem | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| The Lexus IS can be very good vehicle. The one you are considering is the hybrid variant which combines the V6 gasoline engine with an electric motor. Now for a hybrid they are excellent cars but hybrids in general will be more costly long term than a traditional gasoline version. I wouldn't pay $20,000 for one if you don't need a hybrid which I doubt you do I would look into a regular gasoline version and pay less. Here are some videos Scotty talks about Lexus: Should I buy a Lexus or not buy one, and why did Scotty buy one? Scotty talks about the 2015 L ... | |||||

| ... with mechanics or check yourself thoroughly before buying and don't take the sellers words for it. They will say anything to sell you the car. There is a reason why there selling the car in the first place because if the car runs and drives fine who in their right mind would sell the car? But anyways Lexus is basically a Toyota with a fancier name focusing especially in the American market because rich people don't like to be driving in a Toyota. Lexus on the other hand can be costly to maintain since there luxury and Toyota is affordable and cheaper. Toyot ... | |||||
| 2GR-FE Fuel grade | 11Relevance | 4 years ago | ssmdmc_3 | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| So I'm looking at a 2007 Lexus ES 350. Its got the 2GR-FE engine in it and the owner insists in needs Premium fuel but I've been researching and it seems like the 2GR-FE is used in lots of Toyota cars that call for 87 Octane. The Lexus manual says: "If 91 rating gasoline cannot be obtained, you may use unleaded gasoline with an octane rating as low as 87" but also states it could knock with lower grades. Some people have said that Lexus just says you need premium so they can advertise a slightly higher hp. What is the truth? Is there any difference betw ... | |||||
| Answer to: Which full sized luxury sedan should I buy? | 11Relevance | 4 years ago | Whatchamacallit | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| Stay away from any used, high mileage German vehicle - period. You will come to regret it otherwise as it becomes an endless money pit. So that leaves the Lexus LS460. However, even a high mileage Lexus LS may need several thousand in repairs to keep it on the road and gas mileage will be mediocre. I am not sure I could recommend any of them even the Lexus especially if you intend to put 10,000-20,000 miles a year on it. But, if you absolutely were determined to get one no matter what, then I’d get the Lexus LS. Make sure to have $10,000 in emergency ... | |||||

| Answer to: Need to buy a USED car | 17Relevance | 5 years ago | Whatchamacallit | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| I would go with the Lexus RX350 (which has the V6) over the LX and GX, even though those are fairly reliable SUVs as well; however, since the LX and GX have V8s maintenance and repairs will be higher especially at higher mileages. I feel the Lexus RX350 with the V6 is a better compromise, assuming that vehicle is spacious enough and has the features he is looking for. If he wants luxury that will last the longest, go with Lexus (over Acura and Mazda). 2015 Lexus RX350 is the last year of that generation (and most refined as a result) with the 6-speed aut ... | |||||
| 2106 Lexus IS 200t - Overheating problem | 17Relevance | 3 years ago | galejo | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| Hi All, I wanted to post on the forum to help out my brother-in-law, and he owns a 2016 Lexus IS 200t and has about 72,000 miles on it. Essentially, the car overheated on him 3 times at freeway speeds. He took it to a Lexus dealership and the diagnosis was: "found head gasket leaking coolant" and quoted $8,000 for parts and labor. We took his car to a local shop for a second opinion and they found no issues. They performed a road test, leak test, compression test, and computer diagnostics. I also learned that this particular Lexus model has two thermostats ... | |||||
