2002 Lexus GS

Pros: Very stylish and sporty as well. Great family sports car.
Cons: CD changer in glove box and no audio controls on steering wheel.

I purchased a used 2002 Lexus GS 300 in December of 2005. I can honestly say this car was in better condition, had a better ride, was quieter and had more power and punch than any other car of purchase - even brand new.

I am a very big guy and the fit is tight, but - that gives the car almost a "cockpit" feel for me, which I like. The seats are very comfortable even at 6'4" and 385 lbs.! :-) Normal sized folks slide in with much more room - we've comfortably taken trips with 5 adults in the car.

The sound system is fantastic but would be the one feature I have complaints about - I don't like the changer in the glove box, it should have been in-dash, and they should have audio controls on the steering wheel.

We got a fantastic deal on this car at just under $23,000 - a bargain in this class if you ask me. If you are looking for a nice sedan but want to keep the sport feel then I can highly recommend this vehicle!

Pros: So far it's been a great vehicle.
Cons: Gas consumption higher than expected. Interior width narrow but adequate.

Very impressed with handling at high and low speeds.
Really like the automatic shifting up & down buttons on the steering wheel........fantastic idea, although it took me a little while to get on to it.
Nice looking lines, looks compact but lots of room inside.
Doors close and open easily and allow easy entry and exit.
Everything within easy reach of the driver.
Settings are simple.
So far (20,000 miles) have had no problems (can't say that about the Mercedes 300, I traded in on this car!)
Engine and wind noise level very low, even at higher speeds.
Storage areas well thought out and easy to use.
