Pros: funky taillights, that big "L" on the grill Cons: Overpriced for what you get, WAAAY too small, minivan-like dashboard, cramped rear seats, no true off-road capabilities
This car is completely out-classed by the new 2001 Infiniti QX4. I don't get what people see in the RX300 (other than the big "L" on the grill). Sure, it's a Lexus (so it's stylish and reliable and all that), but it really doesn't measure up...

Pros: Very luxurious, powerfull enough, very smooth ride Cons: No V8, no off-road ability. Looks Weird.
Ok, lets get something out of the way: This "SUV" is a Car. It does not go off-road. It will not go Off-road. If you should attempt to take this car off-road, it will most likely never return to the road, as the car suspension used simply...

Pros: Luxurious Cons: Impractical The Bottom Line: If you're concerned with being comfortable, then this is right up your alley. However, if you want anything else, you could definitely find something better worth your $36000.
When I think of Lexus, my mind immediately creates a vision of luxury. Leather seats with 'bum-warmers' (my mother's words, not mine), ultimate climate control, smooth lines, leg room to spare... the very essence of car creature comforts. The RX300 has...

Pros: Interior space, engine power, smooth ride, good looks. Cons: Off-road ability, hard-to-use menu
Why should you like the RX300? Well, sure it's got a nice set of wheels, and that emblem will sure make the neighbors jealous. But, there's more to it than that. And Lexus proves this in a nice car-ute combo that's left my buns less shaken and stirred...

Pros: great handling and turning Cons: gas pedal, price
Recently I took the Lexus RX 300 for a test drive, and I must say, its a nice car. It has great turning capabilities, and stop on the dime brakes. The engine heats up pretty quickly, unlike the car I have now, a mini van, which takes 10 minutes until...

Pros: Quality construction, smooth car-like ride Cons: Could use a more horsepower
Driving this vehicle is really like driving a refined sedan. It has a comfortable ride and handles very easily. I initially purchased the RX
because of my past experience with the Lexus brand. I feel like the quality and attention to detail is...

Pros: Smooth, powerful, quiet Cons: small trunk space
This is one of my favorite SUVs built to date. I have been in as well as test driven numerous SUVs and I have found few that surpass the RX300. The RX300 is built on the Toyota Camry platform, which gives the car a more sedan-like ride to it. I myself...

Pros: Superb quality, great features, peppy. Cons: Price. Not as large as some other SUV's
Let's face it...most SUV owners love them for the room, the "high up" driving experience and the sporty look, not to mention that they're very trendy and owning one means you belong to the "in" group. In any event, the Lexus RX300...

Pros: Easy to drive, quite, reliable Cons: Not good for rough driving, not too powerful
The RX300 debuted 2 years ago and quickly became the hottest selling Lexus. In NH my mother had to wait for a LONG time before she received this car and for the most part, I would say that it was worth the wait. Because of the high demand for this car,...

Pros: Creature comforts Cons: Independent suspension, part-time four wheel drive (bad for offroad)
When the word "off road" is mentioned in a SUV commercial, they show their product going through mud and other horendous situations. The truth is that a big portion of today's SUV are nothing more than just trendy family vans or confused...

Pros: Everything Cons: Cost, Sunroof noise
After test driving and reviewing all the fact of this car it is easy to say this Lexus is top of the line and worth every penny. The exterior is sleak and new, not as rugged as some of its competitors like the Jeep or Infiniti, it looks small and...

Pros: acceleration Cons: limited space
Having already owned a Lexus sedan, and with my growing family I decided to purchase their SUV. Although the price is a little steep for a first car, or for small families ($31,483-$33,905); the value is well worth it. In addition to the smooth ride,...

Pros: four wheel drive, luxury features Cons: Gas mileage
I recently purchased a 2000 Lexus RX300. It is my third Lexus purchase, but the first SUV. I purchased this vehicle because I have two young children in car seats and needed a little bit more rear seat room. My other Lexus vehicles were wonderful, so...

Pros: comfort, ride Cons: money, rear room
Why do I say this is the Picaso of SUVs, because it's expensive, looks nice, but is not of much practical use. In other words, there are better ways to spend your money. But if you have a surplus of cash this is the sport utility for you. It's pleasing...

Pros: Smooth ride, comfort front and back Cons: Steering wheel wanders under full acceleration
I purchased the RX300 because I simply wanted more luxury than my 4Runner could offer. I also needed the ability to tow my 2000 pound boat. The ride that this SUV gives is truly impressive. Very very smooth and very quiet. In fact, when I picked it up...
