Most Dependable Car I've Ever Owned
4.63 out of 5 starsMost Dependable , 04/05/2006
1994 Lexus GS 300 4dr Sedan
Have never had any major problems with car. Has outlasted every car I have ever owned. Drives and rides better than much newer vehicles I currently own.
A car that never gets the respect

1993 Lexus GS 300 4dr Sedan
This car is amazing, it may not be the fastest but it's capable of reaching 140mph on the hwy. It may not be the most luxurious but it knows how to coddle its driver and passengers.The BMW 5 outhandles it, but I can take it on a back road and it handles the curves confidently. But this is the most reliable car I've ever driven. BMW can't even come close on this point.
VERY reliable!!

1993 Lexus GS 300 4dr Sedan
Bought this vehicle preowned with 50K miles on it and it has been very very
reliable. I now have 190K miles on it and EVERYTHING is original on this
vehicle (except for wear item like brake pads, and one timing belt
replacement which was done at 175K miles!!). Although structurally it's not
as solid as the German cars (i.e. MB) the reliability and comfort are top
notch. Whats … amazing to me is that this vehicle accelerates, drives,
handles, and sounds just like the day I bought it. You really can't go worng
with a Toyota product, you might pay more for it but it will more than pay off
in the long run.

1994 Lexus GS 300 4dr Sedan
Owned 7 years and it's my favorite car ever. I've spent more, but enjoyed less. Always 20+MPG, lots of top end speed, and comfortable. It won't beat anybody racing to the end of the block, but at highway speeds it has legs. Had to make a 180 mile one-way trip to deliver emergency bio-medical supplies, and when I returned home I got a call that the parts were wrong and would I please … make another trip. No problem. Went to a movie that night with my daughter, and I drove! My spouse keeps hinting that it's time to get a new car, but I'm resisting.
