This Year's Model Updates:

Other than the Nakamichi audio system value package no longer being available, there are no changes for the RX 300 this year.

Pros:
  • Well-appointed interior, perfect road manners, excellent crash-test results, optional four-wheel drive.
Cons:
  • Allergic to major off-highway work, cumbersome LCD screen in center of dash, feels more like a minivan than an SUV.

  • Love My 01 RX300 - 2002 Lexus RX 300

    Bought this car last Sept. brand new -- and I couldnt be happier. Very smooth, great acceleration & handling, awesome brakes and sound system and comfort... Love sitting up higher and great cargo space in the back. And this is AFTER owning a 98 Mercedes E320 sedan - No comparison!! And yes, Im a chick , and its definitely a chick car!!!

  • RX300-Whats There Not to Like! - 2002 Lexus RX 300

    This is my second RX300 (my previous was a 1999), and if Lexus keeps it up, I may never switch to another vehicle! It rides comfortably and drives instinctively. The gas mileage is superb for a SUV its class--19mph. On REGULAR gas! This is for around town in the Washington Metro area! The styling is appealing and the High Intensity Discharge Headlights are great.

    I drive, sell and study all types of vehicles. We recently bought a 2002, 4 year old RX 300, with 44k miles. It is excellent in every way. My wife loves the "fit", not too large, and not too small. The instrument panel, the mileage, the ride, and the overall performance is excellent. We are leaving next week for a 2000 mile road trip, and look forward to going in the RX 300.

  • Ive Wanted One Since 1999 - 2002 Lexus RX 300

    Since 1999, I have found this to be the best looking vehicle on the road. Apparently, so does everyone else as you can see one every time youre stopped at an intersection! I was between this car and the Acura MDX, and this car basically won out due to looks and the slightly more luxurious interior. The acceleration is slower than what Im used to with luxury sedans, but you can get it going when you really need to. Very comfortable ride, and I just love driving this car. Im only 28, so I guess Im young for this car, but I dont care. I just love it.

    I love this car! I had a 1987 Chevy Blazer for the past 7 years and now I know why people buy luxury cars. It has been the best experience ever driving this car and I cant imagine my life without it now. Very luxurious and comfortable. Its the perfect SUV.

  • After several months of driving - Review - 2002 Lexus RX 300
    By -

    This truck is excellent! Two things the are outstanding are the base stereo and the brakes. The stereo is crisp, clear, rich, and loud. It is the best sound system I have ever heard. The braking system is superb. Braking is smooth and effortless and is not touchy or grabby at all.

  • RX300 End of Lease - 2002 Lexus RX 300

    Extremely reliable. Luxury sedan with the benefits of higher ride position. Comfortable interior.

  • Best Car - 2002 Lexus RX 300
    By -

    I bought this car with 42K miles on it and have had it a year and a half. I also traded a Lexus ES 300 in on it b/c I wanted a SUV. Lexus is by far the best car on the road. Ill never drive anything else.
