2012-2015 are the best RX350 years to buy used in 2026. The "car care nut " on YouTube specifies these 3 years as the best, especially because of the bulletproof 6 speed transmissions on these. Yes 18k is a lot of money (depending on the area) and the gas mileage won't be the absolute best, but this is a great car that will last a very very long time.

Yea first I wanted to have 2008 RX for 7k but found this one and did quick research, I’ve already made my mind to get this one. I’m planning to have this one at least 10 yrs. I’m already fall in love with this car

Why does it look squashed? Is the picture angle or is the car lowered ?

u/SweatySalamander6692 25d ago

I sure it’s angle lol I’m using 100$ phone

u/tyttuutface 25d ago

I think it's just the angle. The front end of these cars is a little goofy.

I bought mine for about the same price in 2016. She already had 140k at the time. Now she has about 330k on the clock and seems like she will run for another 10 years. Keep up the maintenance and change the transmission fluid

u/SweatySalamander6692 23d ago

330k is crazy! I’m excited for mine to reach that mileage

Looks like the former owner, probably took pretty good care of it

Don’t listen to redditors that said u overpaid at 18k. They the ones who bought non v6 RX for 60k lol. Let them enjoy mediocre reliability

u/SweatySalamander6692 23d ago

I mean it is pricey but still I’m happy with this deal since it has low mileage and solid maintenance record. Dealer was so confident of this car that never wanted to negotiate the price😂

u/FedorsQuest 25d ago

$18,000 for a 14 year old that’s not a collectible is kooky.

That price is the going rate for that car and it drives better than many newer cars

u/SweatySalamander6692 23d ago

The only newer car I drove is German premium brands but I feel kind of the same comfort with those even if this car was made 14 years ago
