How good are Lexus when it comes to maintenance are they really expensive to maintain?

by Reed on January 22, 2010

I am thinking about buyin an 2007 Is 250 but would like to own the car for at least 10 years. My other choice is the cheaper Acura RSX
Average cost for serviceing… tuneups, oil change, new tires? Are there other things I should know about?

I have an 07 IS 250, and the Lexus servicing is expensive but no more than Acura.
Other than the routine maintenance they never ever go wrong. I can’t say enough on how good this car is.
Drive both, and you’ll see the Lexus is a much better car.

A friend of mine has the older is300, and has put 287,000 miles on it with nothing going wrong.

Which maintenance is most affordable? Audi, Lexus, Acura?

by Reed on January 22, 2010

I am considering an older model luxury automobile. Which make of car has the most affordable maintenance; Audi, Lexus, or Acura? Which is most reliable?

just on regular maintenance ,there’s really not much difference in any of them,oil changes and things like this are about the same,tires cost about the same,so really your not going to be out any more on either of those,all of those are good cars too,and if you maintain them well they will hold up well,the Lexus i have to say is the most reliable right now,and the most luxurious also.if it were me id choose a Lexus any day over any of the other ones,,good luck.

2001 Acura MDX or 2001 Lexus RX 300?

by Reed on January 9, 2010

I need help deciding on what to chose. Same price both 4×4 all the same features except the acura has navigation and the lexus does not. The acura has 107,000 and the lexus 87,000. I like them both looking for the reliability factor. I know lexus and toyota are very good because I have one 190,000 only car I ever owned 7 yrs now no problem but acura makes me a lil nervous. But I dont know so yall help me chose pls :) Also I am pregnant so this is a serious decision for me also since Im a one car kinda girl :) Thanks!!!
I carfaxed both and both are good :)

Hello,

If I were you, I would stay away from the MDX. Both cars don’t have any warranty. But like you said, Lexus = Toyota, and they have the least problems. However, the MDX can fit 7 passengers and Lexus can only carry 5. The acura also has too many miles on it. I am not sure if the 01 MDX offered navigation, but I could be wrong. The 2001 Acura MDX use a 5 speed automatic transmission which suffered a significant numbers of transmission problems.

Before purchasing, make sure you check car history and take it to your mechanic and let him have a look.

I would go with the Lexus RX 300.

Good Luck..
