I’ve had this car now for almost eight years. April 17, 2025 will be eight years. It had 16,000 miles on it when I got it. It now has 83,000+ miles on it. I’ve taken it on the NY to FL run, or vice versa, perhaps 7-8 times. It is a phenomenal highway cruiser. Other than those trips, and a few shorter trips to upstate NY, it is lightly used around town for just a few miles a week. Its performance has been flawless, with the exception of needing a new AC compressor in summer of 2023. Other than that, maintenance has been limited to two alignments, two batteries, two sets of brake pads, two new sets of tires, and of course a new cabin and engine air filter every year or so. It’s clearly the best car I’ve ever owned, and I think I count 17 cars owned, half new and half used, that I’ve owned in 48 years driving. It is superbly quiet and comfortable. It feels very solid. I really have nothing negative to say about it. Im in the process of moving it to Florida now, where I’ll insure it and register it and hopefully the sun doesn’t ruin it as it finishes out its useful life down here. The paint on the hood does seem prone to rock chips. I’ve had the hood repainted once already, three coats of paint and two coats of clearcoat, and it’s already gotten a couple of small chips again. I’m not sure if this is a design flaw, or simply from all those thousand mile highway trips. I’ll be looking to add another cat for use in NY, and will probably choose another CPO RX 350 over say a new Honda CR V simply because I’ve seen how each of these cars holds up over time, and their comfort level. This Lexus just holds up better than most, including in comparison to my ‘17 Acura RDX, which is an extremely reliable and competent car too, but at about 600 lbs lighter than this car, it’s not quite the same as far as ride/comfort/quietness.

Solid family SUV

This vehicle is excellent. My wife loves her RX 350 and even though it's not as fun to drive as my Jaguar I can say with complete sincerity that if I had to choose between the two the Lexus would win every time. Handles well. Quiet. Extremely comfortable seats and ride. I'd highly recommend this SUV to anyone with a family. There is plenty of room for the kids in the back.

I bought a 2014 RX350 with all wheel drive and 19 inch wheels as options, not the Sport which has a sport tuned suspension also and is not recommended here. This set up gives great handling and a quiet smooth ride. After reading about a cushy ride and lack of feel for the road my biggest surprise was just the opposite with this set up.

Love my car

I leased my 2014 Lexus RX 350 last October, so it's been almost one year. Has all bells and whistles. I really love my car. Very quite ride, comfortable seats. Back seat passengers are pleased with all the leg room. Car feels very safe. The worst part of my Lexus experience was dealing with Lexus of Sacramento. But I have found other Lexus dealers much more professional for which I am very thankful.

My first lexus was amazing bought this in 2014 the quality all around is gone down that goes for parts mechanical and quality of the materials to make it.......just a lot of quality issues, heated seats work sometimes not all, when you have heat on windows fog up a lot so its a constant battle of getting right levels, carpeting inside not the good quality of my last car over all the whole thing much cheaper in quality than my orig lexus of 2002. now at 11,000 miles they want to replace pads and rotors and call it wear and tear, tells me the quality of their products is poor. UPDATE I WORKED WITH THE DEALER AND CORPORATE AND THEY REPLACED THE BRAKES
