  Go ahead, buy one. Dont feel guilty - 2002 Lexus GS 300
  By J. Y. - May 4 - 2:00 am

  What I liked about my Lexus GS300(Platinum edition) is that its simplicity. Every control buttons and gauge is in right place. No fancy, just simple. The car is very nimble and responsive. Although, the car can use some more horsepower but its enough for the city drive. The service is excellent and it shows why they are always ranked top in J.D Power survey. The only problem that I have with GS300 is you watch your head(I got hit numerous times and it really hurts) when you open the car trunk. Its kinda unstable when its not fully opened. Youll know what I mean when you go and open it.

  A GREAT car - 2002 Lexus GS 300
  By A Happy Teen - April 14 - 1:00 am

  I just got a used 2002 Lexus GS300 for a Christmas present (as my first car!). It is really an amazing car. Its 7 or 8 years old with around 96K miles on it, but it still drives like a new car. Im always getting compliments about it. The standard 6 CD changer is amazing, and the audio has an amazing bass system. The styling is absolutely amazing (but Im not crazy about the tail lights). This car hasnt broken down in the 7 years its been on the road. Gas mileage stinks, but its a big SAFE car (6 airbags). Id rather have a heavy safe car than a light car with good gas mileage any day. Take the weight and safety.

  The ultimate cruiser - 2002 Lexus GS 300
  By ShawnC - November 10 - 10:00 am

  Spirited, comfy, great stereo (Mark Levinson), and a GPS to boot. The first car I own where I can drive 350 miles straight and not feel a sore anywhere on the body.

  Buy One! - 2002 Lexus GS 300
  By LexusinTexas - August 16 - 5:20 pm

  Weve owned our GS300 for 7 years now and have had nothing but excellent service from it. It is a terrific automobile! In these 7 yrs., other than routine maintenance, weve only had to replace 3 bulbs. It has been a perfect car. Wife drives it mostly and loves it. Plan to go close to 200,000 miles with it.

  Sweet, serene luxury - 2002 Lexus GS 300
  By omegadoug - July 22 - 2:00 am

  My frame of reference, my last car, was a BMW 3-series so I definitely miss the handling. But had I wanted a car that handled perfectly, I would have gotten a BMW. I opted for the Lexus because it offers the silkiest, smoothest ride of anything Ive driven. Another 75 hp would make this car near flawless, but not at the premium required to get a 430.

  By RyansGS - September 28 - 8:06 am

  Ever since I bought my GS Ive had nothing but fun. I have 20 inch wheels on it and its dropped on tanabe spring. I would tell anyone get this car its worth every penny. On top of everything Lexus service is the best.

  Long Term Review 02 GS 300 - 2002 Lexus GS 300
  By jtrane - September 23 - 7:27 pm

  Bought new in 02 for $40k. Its been a very good car, now at 230,000 miles. Everything works. Gets 23-24 in mixed drving and 25-26 on hwy still. burns 1 qt every 2k miles but i can live with that. hazy plastic headlights are a problem, requiring one of those resto kits. thats a small item and the rest of the car is v good. xlnt leather trim. quiet engine. ill buy another gs and i hope the newer engine design is as reliable, quiet and fun as the I-6. dealer service is awfully $$$ and if you can find a competent and honest independent, go with that. better value than a 5 series or E300.

  lots of fun - 2002 Lexus GS 300
  By tootsie - September 10 - 10:00 am

  A very good overall car,fun to drive. It is certainly not a sports car. It has a plush and very confortable ride.Great on long trips. The seats adjust very nicely to you and the lumbar support is good.

  Great Car - 2002 Lexus GS 300
  By Baker 4 Real Estate - August 8 - 2:00 am

  Need a little more interior head room. Minor insturment glare on windshield at night. Passenger cant input addresses when moving (navigational system). A couple of steering wheel mounted radio controls would be nice along with a constant display of the outside temperature. All else is great.
