It is a timeless, beautiful SUV that never breaks down.
Great looking, never has any maintenance issues, works well in snow, can put lots of luggage in car, has not gotten me out of style, very luxurious, only complaint is that it uses a lot of gas.

My car is amazing! I wouldn't trade for the world.
My vehicle runs extremely well. The interior is still in great shape. The only thing that I dislike about my car is its poor gas mileage.

Lexus 4 door with seat warmers.
I really love my Lexus, I bought it use from a mechanic, so although it is a 2004 model it is very reliable. It is so nice that it is as I am driving a newer model car. It is runs great, with no trouble. It is a very comfortable car, my took a road trip from Florida to Vegas with no problem at all. It is very spacious and a lot of leg room. It has ac/heat and the seat can be warm in cold weather. It is a very nice car.

It is a very reliable, safe and comfortable car.
I like the comfortability, the large amount of room. I do not like that the hatch door swings open to the side instead of upwards.

Lexus GX470 is Long Lasting and Comfortable
I absolutely love my Lexus GX470. I learned how to drive in this car, and the same one has been in my family for over 10 years. I have over 230,000 miles on it, and it still runs incredibly well. There have been a few things I've had to have repaired over the years, but other than that, the car is safe and reliable.

Original, classic family SUV.
I love my car. We bought it used in 2006. We have had very few problems with it, other than the normal expected maintenance and repairs that go with an aging vehicle. We have taken it on many family vacations. It holds more than one would think and is very comfortable to travel in.

Lexus GX 470, solid build and reliable brand
This is a Lexus, so it is reliable as long as regular upkeep is performed. Change the oil and it will run for 300k+. The leather and wood grain hold up well over time and the overall cabin is a pleasant place to be. There was an issue with dash material cracking but Lexus will replace as it was a known defect.

My car is Lexus model gx 2004. It's good condition.
I like the brand and the performance of my car. But the problem is it I need to repaint it. The body's color of my car is fading away. The aircon is good. It is comfortable to drive. So it's Lexus model gx. Color is gray. Maybe it is better for you to choose other color next time.
