Easy to maneuver driving and parking.
No complaints. Never have had anything wrong with it. I love the dealership from which I bought it. With proper and timely maintenance it has always run like a dream.

Is the 2008 Lexus gs the car for you?
This car has been in my house hold for over half a decade, it is quite reliable and very luxurious for its price. It needs the occasional maintenance but and some things like the breaks for example will not be the best if you but used. In conclusion it is a great car for the price and I believe if you find so too.

Lexus is a reliable car. No worries about death on street. Last long.
It is a reliable car. Drive is smooth. Yet, it may make noise like lit fire when start running. It consume lot of gas and the more mileage the slower speed up it can be. The seats are comfortable. Electronic is ok. It may last up to 300, 000 miles before you need a new car.

Pros from Owners

likeFilled Dash M.

The car that I have is very good on gas and has key detection, you have to be near the car with key to get into the vehicle. Its suitable for people who are by themselves or have only kid. The great this is it a nice size car.

Cons from Owners

dislikeFilled Dash M.

The car is a small sedan and I prefer a crossover than a sedan. Ot hard to find a key chain for the key fob. The trunk sometimes get stuck. It cost a lot to get a new battery for the key phobe, make sure you do not lose your key you will pay a couple hundred to replace it.
