Nothing really, some of the text on the CD player only shows half, but it is still readable.

This car is just amazing; if you're on a budget and want a luxury car - this is it.

I test drove a 2000 BMW E46 318i, and this thing was several thousand cheaper, and honestly the build quality is night and day.

Just hop in the Lexus, the seats are massive & very comfortable. Electric everything, which still 12 years later works fine. The engine will go forever, being a Toyota.

The Lexus GS300 has everything; a brilliant stock sound system, dual climate control, seat memory... it's fully loaded.

For an older car, it is just amazing. Boot space is huge, the doors make that nice clunk quality when you close them, airbags, 6 stacker CD, cruise, auto lights, fuel economy is good, relative to how you drive it.

Power is not massive, but it's not a sports car, it's a cruiser; you feel like you don't want to rush anywhere, as you're enjoying the drive.

Everyone in the car is comfortable, and there is loads of room. It really is a great vehicle, and I hate cars... (true).

If you find a nice one, buy it - you won't regret it!!!

Since I bought the car, I could hear all the bumps on the road. Replaced worn out front passenger's side lower ball joint. I can still hear the thuds over bumps. I have to take it back to the dealer.

The steering wheel tilt switch sometimes does not work.

Stereo jumps sometimes.

As far as I am concerned, I will get all of them fixed.

Lexus leather quality sucks.

Very fast car for a 4 door sedan. According to Wikipedia and some other sites, it produces 300 HP, does 0-60 mph in around 5.4 seconds to 5.7 seconds. The car engine is smooth.

Nakamichi stereo sounds awesome when it doesn't skip.

This car needs good roads, which are rare in Canada. I just can't avoid potholes and bumps here. Ruins the car's bushings on control arms.

I only look at the good qualities of this car. After all, it is a used car. I have to fix all the problems and get it working like new to enjoy it for a few years. Gas consumption is very good for a V8.

My kids love it. It has all the luxuries of a fine car.

This car even at 391000 is a dream to own. Everything still works fine and it seems it will do another 300,000 km. Fuel economy is better than my previous BMW. I'll never drive another car but a Lexus. Don't hesitate any further if you are thinking of getting one.
