There is a computer problem that causes a jerk in the chanage of gear. Dealer says it is an inherant problem. Have been to several dealers and nothing can be done. Would keep the car not for this. Again, it is not the trans, it is a computer read.

Extremely comfortable, great exceleration
its not a sports car, so handling ok but suspension is very soft. Not a con really if you understand what the car was designed
Car runs and drives perfectly! 139300 miles and never a problem. The most comfortable car ever. You can drive it for hours and hours and it does not fatigue you like all the other cars I have driven which makes it great for long trips because you can drive longer and farther without getting uncomfortable and worn out. The seats fold all the way back like a bed, it's very comfortable to sleep in. It is pretty quick too! If you look it up on the 0 to 60 website it shows 0 to 60 in 6.3 seconds which is great for a big car like this, and a top speed of 160mph. This car is famous for going a million miles, just look up the million mile Lexus. It is the best car Lexus ever made and the first car they ever made so they only used the highest quality materials for the interior. The car is 26 years old and nothing is faded and everything is in great shape except the drivers seat ripped because my dumb butt sat in it with a screwdriver in my back pocket with the sharp end sticking out. Makes me so mad every time I see it. Anyway because Lexus was breaking into the Mercedes and BMW market they wanted to make an impression with this car so they built an award winning V8 engine that runs smooth as silk. You remember the commercial with all champagne glasses stacked up high on top of the engine with champagne in them while revving the engine repeatedly and the glasses stay perfectly balanced. Lexus is very proud of this engine and still uses it today. The quality of these cars were top notch and it really shows. It came with the latest technology at the time and were only built in Japan. It gets very good gas mileage, my milage computer shows 30 to 36 mpg at 80 mph. It almost seems to get better the faster you go depending on the road your driving on, hills and what not. This car will go down in history as one of the best cars ever made!!
Very good condition, no body damage. Needs new tires Interior is in good shape Grey color, relatively new batter. No need to add oil between oil changes
I love my Lexas. My husband recently passes away, therefore, I do not need a second (Lexas) car. I would like to sell it to a private party. It still drives like a dream!
Very comfortable, very clean car

This car was bought brand new and 95 in Texas the owner meticulously maintain the car I was amazed at 260,000 miles it's still drives like it just came out to server and floor I love the car but it's rear wheel drive and I live in a mountainous area with a lot of snow and it really drives not going to fit I will take 1500 for it no less or trade for a 2000 or 2001 Lexus ES300
Fast, Reliable, Safe, Fun
