  Great experience - 2002 Lexus GS 300
  By Canton MI - December 24 - 1:26 pm

  Residents of south east Michigan (Motown)are not supposed to drive foreign cars. And until my Lexus, I only drove domestic. What a great experience. The powertrain and build quality are fantastic. Dealership service is only marginally better however.

  A GREAT CAR WITH THE RIGHT TIRES - 2002 Lexus GS 300
  By jedi - August 7 - 10:00 am

  Had my GS 300 (premium pkg.) for a little over a year now and I love this car ! Quietest, smoothest ride Ive experienced. No problems after 21,000 miles EXCEPT problems with the Bridegestone tires the car originally came with. One tire ran flat first 1000 miles; had fixed at dealer. Dealer could NOT balance these tires on the chrome wheels. Car shimmied at highway speeds (65mph+). Dealer finally replaced Bridgestones with Michelin Pilots AND WHAT A DIFFERNCE ! No problems AT ALL other than Bridgestone tires. Dealer experience the best.

  Love My GS 300 - 2002 Lexus GS 300
  By LuvLexus - February 1 - 1:30 am

  I have owned my 2002 GS 300 for 6 years. It now has 167,000 miles on it and it has been an awesome car. All I have done is had its regular oil changes, changed a belt or two and have had absolutely no issues at all with this car. I prefer driving mine over the newer Lexus loaners I have driven. My car is solid, still drives smoothly, quietly & is quite dependable. This is by far the best car I have ever driven and would definitely buy another Lexus due to its superior quality and performance.

  Fun to Drive - 2002 Lexus GS 300
  By fars - November 5 - 2:00 am

  I had just finished a bad experience with Jaguar and was looking for a sporty and fun to drive car that had that European flair.Looked at BMW but went back to Lexus only this time the GS 300 sportdesign model. I thought about the GS430 but figured the speeding tickets were not worth it. The GS300 is a great car,fast enough on the highway with a great ride and finish,if you can buy one.

  Lovin it (so far) - 2002 Lexus GS 300
  By Delta Diva - March 11 - 1:30 am

  I bought my car used this week and it was in excellent condition. Not too many miles for a used car. It is fully loaded, great sound system, wonderful AC, smooth ride, and so far no problems. I also got it at the blue book value (not overpriced).

  Lexus - 2002 Lexus GS 300
  By Bill Murray - January 17 - 10:00 am

  It is obvious that quality means everything to the people at Lexus. My car is without a doubt, the best built automobile that I have ever owned. I own the GS 300 and the six cylinder engine in this car is surprisingly responsive and you have to drive it to appreciate how quit it is on the road. When you put the "pedal to the metal", you feel the acceleration, but you dont hear it.! I look forward to getting behind the wheel and putting it through the paces. I am sure that I will enjoy this car for many, many years.

  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.
