What Owners are Saying About the 2001 Lexus GS
"What a car"
"This is truly an amazing offering from Lexus. Being a Lexus you expect that quality and reliability are the highest rated in the market, My car still drives like a new car and far better than any other luxury car in the market."
"Really lucked out on my first car!"
"I bought this car from a private sale by owner just before I started college. It was my first car and the first major purchase I’ve ever made. At the time it only had around 140,000 miles on it and I was told by the seller it should last an another 200,000 miles. I’ve had it for three years now and I love this car more than ever! It’s performance and reliability is incredible for an almost 18 year old car! I would love to have a newer version of the same model someday. But I plan to have this one for the rest of its life."
"This car is for everyone, and is very thought out."
"I have a 2000 GS400 and it is sublime. When i say this car is for everyone I mean it. This car was way ahead of its time which is great because it means that it's still relevant with more modern vehicles. I got this vehicle in high school as my first car with 178,000 miles, now 3 years later it has 202000 miles on it. The car has had no serious issues and does its job every time without error. As a car enthusiast, mine is heavily modified which in most cases causes problems because things are being changed outside of their purpose but Lexus/Toyota did a great job with making this vehicle simple and adaptable. Parts are also readily available and parts are cheap because they are all Toyota parts. This car has things for every need, you want muscle and performance? The gs400 has a 300hp and will sprint to 60 in 5.7sec. You want luxury? It offers SATNAV, Heated seats, Seat and wheel presets, Multi-way adjustable seats, and dual climate. If you want reliability? Well you're in luck, the engine & drivetrain was over-engineered for its main purpose so even during spirited driving, nothing is being stressed passed its limit. Its also safe with front, rear, and even side airbags. I am more that pleased with this vehicle and you will be too. Great first car as they are cheap between $2,500 to $7,500. Great daily driver as it is a luxury car and its very comfortable because of all the tech features/items it has with a plus that since its an old vehicle, the advanced tech is very simple and straight forward to use."
