      Hey Scotty always great info. Just so you know, Cambridge has two plants North, South and a 3rd plant in Woodstock Ontario called West. The South plant builds the Lexus, and now the North and West build the RAV4. The North did build the Corolla until 2019. The North and South plants are actually attached, so are technically correct when you say they are built in the same factory but they are considered 2 different plants.

    I just bought a 2013 Lexus RX450h for $15k. I have the original sticker and it's MSRP price was $57,320. Made in Japan. It has 145k miles on it. Looking over the service history, the only issues it had in 145k miles is a faulty O2 sensor and a burned out taillight. That's it. It drives, handles and looks like new - it was well taken care of and garage kept by the previous owner. Zero rust underneath. No leaks anywhere - the underside is bone dry. The previous owner followed the Lexus service schedule religiously and changed the oil, transmission and differential fluids, flushed the coolant and Hybrid coolant and the brake system. The spark plugs were replaced at 135K miles. The Lexus dealer I bought it from went over the car and replaced the brakes and rotors and put on new tires. They also did an alignment. According to the dealer, the hybrid battery still has 94% capacity and the hybrid system works perfectly. I'm getting 27MPG in mixed driving. I couldn't be happier and I plan on keeping it for a very long time.
    One more thing: buying from my local Lexus dealer was the most pleasant and enjoyable buying experience I ever had in my 50 years of experience of buying a car. They treated me with respect, dignity and bent over backwards to make sure I was satisfied. I did all the paperwork online and when I went for the test drive the car was detailed with a full tank of gas and ready to go. I came back from the test drive, signed the papers and was heading home in my RX450h within 90 minutes. They even drove my old car back to my house for me. I was so happy with how things went I actually sent a thank you card to my sales person in appreciation for being so kind and helpful. All dealerships should treat their customers as well as my Lexus dealership does. I'm a Lexus customer for life.

BUT sometimes I copy and paste an LS vin into my “Lexus Garage” which shows Lexus dealer repair histories. Wow. Some of those LS repairs. Too much $$$. Found a super nice 430, original owner, super nice; exceptional! Put it in my “garage”. He had just had it in saying the air suspension wasn’t working right. Dealer checked it, couldn’t replicate it, said it’s fine. Nooooo way. The LS is simply very expensive to repair, and that always takes me back to what I’m driving, which is pretty amazing, actually.

    Splendid cars, as long as you don't have an accident with body damage. Those body parts cost a fortune, just like Audi, but apart from that, running up to 1 million kms or more, if you do the proper service of course; and like Scotty said not drive up to 50.000 km without any service, which is lethal for many cars with chain belts. The chain needs adequate oil or it gets stretched or even broken then ...and that is a hugh cost to repair the motor then.

    That Lexus was a very good buy! Solid built, still looks great, solid engine and transmission, just all around great ride. That gas mileage really is not bad for a V6 pulling that much weight. Honestly, I would upgrade the stereo to have a better back up camera and call it a day. The Lexus will last the owner for many trouble free years.

    Very important***** Make sure you look underneath before buying used. Look for oil on the passenger side. This is a “front engine timing cover” leak which needs to be resealed. It is 3k job bc they have to remove the engine to get to it… independent mechanic and Lexus mechanic… You will also see the leak if the turn the wheel to the left or right while in park, get out of the car and look behind the wheel well. It will be wet. Either have that negotiated off the price or run… the RX has a great engine and super reliable but has issues with its engine timing cover..

    A year and a half ago, we bought a 2014 Lexus RX350 with 77,000 miles on it. We paid $19,000. Bought it from a rural Toyota dealership. We took a trip this week and it went over 100,000 miles just about fifty miles from home.
    We had considered a used 2016 Toyota Highlander. Found a really nice one, the private seller was asking $29,000. It was very nice, with the long moon roof and captain's chairs in the front and rear. Almost bought it. But I thought I remembered Scotty saying that the 2016 Toyotas had GDI fuel injection. I didn't want any part of that, so we went with the older vehicle.
    Pretty much everything Scotty says about this 2012 model is true of ours. It's a great highway cruiser and does not get great gas mileage, but it's pretty good, considering. Rides nicely, very quiet, hauls a bunch of stuff, the seats are great, and the A/C pumps cold.

Everything is great but I heard a creeking noise when I drive 100km over on my dash board, left door makes creeking noise when I play music, when I play youtube music and change my volume, it plays media player which is super annoying. Rare passenger air vents seems to have not working ( may be it detects seat ) I tried all everything still cant make it work.

Gas mileage isn't great -- the average hovers between 19.2 and 19.6. We've had to do a few repairs, but nothing major or catastrophic. Now we'd like to replace my husband's old hatchback with a 3-row SUV, and wow has used car-shopping become horribly expensive and pretty miserable.

      We'd love to find a used RX350L or GX at a good price, but we may start considering the Acura MDX, too. Or a Highlander -- but when I was shopping for my RX350, it was easier to find well-maintained RX350s than Highlanders, and the price wasn't very different!
