my wife drives a 2021 NX 300 fsport. i traded in my 2019 charger scat pack for a 2023 Nx 350 fsport because i loved her car so much. so there's that...
Great review ! Best part of this small suv vs the competition is this won’t break nor break your wallet and maintenance wise should be very dependable while others….?
I opted for the NX250 because I didn’t want or need the turbo nor the AWD, and I wanted the 18 inch wheels for the better ride quality. I’m very pleased. My only beefs are the ride flat tires (and no spare on board) and, believe it or not, lack of a cd player!
I bought a 2023 Mazda cx5 signature in fall and traded it for this 2023 Lexus 350 premium trim. The Mazda was nice but the interior space was just a bit too tight. I also didn’t like that I had to use the rotary knob as it doesn’t have the touch screen. it also had wired car play instead of wireless. I love my lexus. It’s got more space and the tech and looks are exactly what I was looking for. I took a little hit on trade in but it was worth it to me.
@@BrianMakse Wow! Just WOW!....there are dumb people on here Mazda....are you FREAK'n kidding the Re-Sale Plummeting alone should give you a hint Oh Well! My car has gone up in RE-SALE 13K after I drove it off the lot because everyone wants the JAPAN built NX 450h+ "F" Sport and None are available...Econ 101!
I went from a 2017 CX-5 GT to 2024 NX 350 Fsport. Stay away from the CX5. I babied my car, did all services and at 70K miles, the rear diff went. Apparently this is common with these cars. Also, the NX is in a totally different league. Oh yea, my CX5 also started to rust and I live in Vancouver. Not exactly a winter heavy area. The rust appeared near the tailgate hinge on top of the roof. Never again. No more Mazda for me. To add to all this, when you drive, Mazda touch ability on the infotainment is totally disabled because Mazda thinks you're too stupid to drive and operate your vehicle at the same time. So if you're on the freeway and need to enter destination co-ordinates into your navi, you have to pull over to the side of the freeway. Utterly idiotic. I never hated any of my cars as much as I hated the CX5. Clunking noises from the joints... meh. They want to play in the big leagues but they're far from being ready.
Hey, Brian! Why can’t the reviews cover the more affordable NX’s? I keep seeing the ones for F Sport and Luxury models. I was hoping to find a review here on a regular NX 350, but not the base model. I need to hear about the performance and handling on a model within my budget. I trust your reviews b/c you know cars and have driven quite a variety of vehicles.
My wife wants to replace her Evoque with this(based on looks). So does it drive well. She sometimes can get into her rally driving mode...lol especially when she cornering hard. Also did u get the one with the upgraded premium sound system, if so how does it sound, thanks!
I covered the dynamics thoroughly in this episode, have her watch that segment. IIRC, this didn't have the top sound system, but it was pretty decent regardless.
I had one of these, drove it for a year and traded it for a BMW X3. Its a nice car, very well appointed interior, nice exterior looks. Why I didn't keep the car was two reasons, one was the engine noise, he mentions it here but I think it was understated just how loud it is under acceleration. It's a pig even with the turbo. It sounds like a cheap 4cyl struggling to move this very heavy car, for a luxury vehicle I found this unacceptable. The other reason was the handling, the heaviness of the vehicle really shows when turning or cornering, it felt like work trying to keep the body roll under control. Looks wise, technology and price, the two cars are comparable, but when it came to performance and ride quality the X3 was hands down just a better vehicle.
@@Joe-eg7ml It has a 4cyl turbo making about 248hp. Its very quite and responsive. BMW has had some problematic engines in the past, but I think that has been addressed by BMW and from what I had read this is a very reliable engine now. It came in third place for reliability behind Toyota and Lexus even beating out Honda. So im guessing its as reliable as any car out here these days, if not better.
The FSport has more horsepower and adaptive suspension. Also looks 3 times better and aggressive. FSPORT seats with FSport steering wheel, wheels, foot pedals, and blacked out exterior accents. Plus Sport plus mode
......................... Has all BLACK / CHROME ....Has LARGE Functional front Fascia Air scoops............Un like the Euros with Non Functional Plastic crap!@@omendarklight1526 and the 450h+ "F" Sport is BUILT ONLY in Japan ...Not union shop / Canada!
Hi, did you get used to the engine noise? I test drove the NX with no problems. I brought my husband back to test drive it & he thought it was noisy and rode a little rough. Would switching the run flat tires out with regular tires help with this? Thank you!

It is popular to comment that the CVT is not as good. I have had CVT cars since 2005, and my opinion is that CVT is the best. You just have to learn to use the gas pedal correctly.

@@BrianMakse Didn't know that. The NX350 or NX350 hybrid are the models I would look at. Don't like 20" tires, run flats, or panoramic moonroofs. Also the rear seats are small for a rear facing baby seat. While it has some similar problems I'm now looking at the Mazda CX50 turbo (an upper trim) instead.
.................................. You sir are a Complete Idiot!!! " F sport? No one should or will buy that trim " Apparently you Do-Not understand that the 450h+ "F" Sport is the ONLY NX totally built in ONLY Japan.

@@BrianMakse just so you know, no one is making fun of anyone by clarifying specs to the audience. Content creators make mistakes all the time, and it doesn’t mean anyone even has any disabilities. People in the TH-cam community help each other all the time by setting the facts straight.
For what the NX cost you should try the Porsche Macan … I had a 2022 NX 450h+ and a 2023 450h+ Luxury and BOTH SUCKS and doesn’t looks spot at all, to claim you have a spot suv and the suv doesn’t have at least 265/45/20 front tires and 295/40/20 on the back you can’t say you have a spot car, and the NX 450h+ Sound System COMPLETELY SUCKS, suspension and seats SUCKS as well for 73k dollars out the door???? I traded the NX for Porsche Macan for 75k with 8Year/80k miles warranty… I will NEVER NEVER WANT TO DRIVE A LEXUS EVER EVER AGAIN!!! I keep my Rav4 which is basically the same as the NX but with. WAY WAY BETTER SOUND AND MORE COMFORTABLE and hold the value way more as well.. LEXUS SUCKS

Thanks!
Great review. Thank you for sharing. Can you confirm whether the colour is Fuji Red?
It is not, that much I remember. I'm sure I stated the name in the "How To Spec..." segment later in the episode.
Your review is excellent and satisfactory as always. Thank you Sir.
My pleasure!

No new cars come with CD players any more. Old tech-very old.
I also am not happy there’s no CD player too. You are not alone! Enjoy your new NX! Hoping to enjoy one some day myself!!
I am a total fan of the CD player. One nice thing about poverty…I get to keep my old vehicle w/its CD player. YAY! 👍
Enjoyed your review! New subscriber 👊🏽
Cheers! Thanks!
How would you compare the NX350 to the Mazda CX5 signature trim ? Do the differences worth the higher cost if the luxury badge is not important ?
Funny. I just finished with the CX-5 Signature. The Mazda is more engaging for drivers.
I bought a 2023 Mazda cx5 signature in fall and traded it for this 2023 Lexus 350 premium trim. The Mazda was nice but the interior space was just a bit too tight.

.................................. You sir are a Complete Idiot!!! " F sport? No one should or will buy that trim " Apparently you Do-Not understand that the 450h+ "F" Sport is the ONLY NX totally built in ONLY Japan. All others are built in a FREAK'n Union Shop (workers do not get fired i.e. hangover from work and opp's forgot a weld bolt or rivet...Oh Well!....located in Canada...& I might add the quality is NOT on Par with Japan ..Japan Built specific is the best of the best..END of Story! Do-your proper research...Dummy!!!
It’s 275 hp, not 257 hp.
Are you making fun of my dyslexia?
@@BrianMakse what I am doing is clarifying for everyone, which is what a good reviewer should be doing
Thank you so much! It's still wrong to make fun of someone's disabilities.
@@BrianMakse just so you know, no one is making fun of anyone by clarifying specs to the audience. Content creators make mistakes all the time, and it doesn’t mean anyone even has any disabilities.
People in the TH-cam community help each other all the time by setting the facts straight.
GV70 is a better choice
Maybe. Maybe not.
..................................... NOT it is Korean CRAP...sold mine after threw a valve in 6 mo...what trash!
For what the NX cost you should try the Porsche Macan …
I had a 2022 NX 450h+ and a 2023 450h+ Luxury and BOTH SUCKS and doesn’t looks spot at all, to claim you have a spot suv and the suv doesn’t have at least 265/45/20 front tires and 295/40/20 on the back you can’t say you have a spot car, and the NX 450h+ Sound System COMPLETELY SUCKS, suspension and seats SUCKS as well for 73k dollars out the door???? I traded the NX for Porsche Macan for 75k with 8Year/80k miles warranty… I will NEVER NEVER WANT TO DRIVE A LEXUS EVER EVER AGAIN!!! I keep my Rav4 which is basically the same as the NX but with. WAY WAY BETTER SOUND AND MORE COMFORTABLE and hold the value way more as well..
LEXUS SUCKS
The Macan is just a Q5 underneath.
@@BrianMakse 2022 & Up changed, I drove both and is completely superior than the Q5
Before buying this fake ‘’Sport SUV’’ try the Porsche Macan Base and thank me later…🙏🏽
I remember a time when Porsche only made sports cars.
@@BrianMakse the Cayenne is not sporty at all, the Macan is.
I drove both and the Cayenne is too heavy, is more comfortable than sport
YEP i.e. the 911 and those EVEN were trash Air Cooled nightmares......@@BrianMakse
@@donaldbanner2185 that’s funny because the finest car I’ve driven is an air cooled Porsche 🤣🤣🤣
