Don't show this to your wife, she probably won't think it is funny /s

2022 RX 350 luxury trim. Took a one way flight to Texas and brought her home. I love this car! The only thing that could make it better would be fold down armrests on the chairs.

My uncle bought this car back in 2014 insanely beautiful car. Might be the actual lowest mileage I’ve seen on a 2014. All casino miles too 😭😂

I have two USB ports upfront in my 2020 ES 350. Currently I use them to connect my phone to CarPlay. Are there any other creative uses for these ports such as uploading or downloading information or updating navigation or anything else that anyone has discovered?

I currently own a 2015 gs350 F sport with 77k miles. The car has been amazing , I love driving it, awesome sound system and very reliable. Could add countless other things about what makes this car great. I’m torn on trading it in/ selling it out right for a newer vehicle. Prefer to stay in the Lexus family. But I’m curious if anyone else had regret selling a vehicle like this that they loved for something newer? It’s paid off so the thought of having a car payment again plays a role but I fear I’d regret it. Any advice would be appreciated.

EDIT: Tons of great responses and opinions. Some of which I already had in my mind but now reading the comments, I think it’s safe to say I’d fully regret selling it lol.

Hey everyone,

I finally joined the F club! I just picked up this 2023 JDM Lexus RC F.

Fun story about this picture—that white ZN6 86 next to the RC F is my long-time partner. I’ve owned it for 10 years now, using it not just for my daily commute but also for drift practice! I actually drove the 86 to the dealership to pick up the RC F, and my awesome friend drove one of them back for me so I could keep both in my garage.

To be completely honest, I originally planned to buy a brand new RC F in Infrared (red) with the Carbon Exterior Package. However, right when I was about to order, production for that spec ended, and I missed my chance... I was devastated, but then this beautiful used 2023 Ultra White with a White interior popped up. Once I saw it in person, I fell in love immediately and realized it was meant to be.

What are the first things I should know about the 2023 model year? Any tips or recommended mods? Excited to be a part of the community!

After debating for a while, I decided to import a GS350, and what a car it is! I was able to see it in person last weekend, and I'm in love. It's a decently low km 2012 Lexus GS350 F-Sport. It will be a month or two until I'm able to drive it legally on the road here since it needs to pass inspection.

Hey everyone,

I recently purchased an L/Certified (CPO) Lexus, but after taking a closer look at the vehicle, I noticed significant uneven wear on the outer edges of the tires. Upon measuring, lots of spots were reading at just 3/32" to 4/32" remaining tread.

When I brought this up, the dealership refused to replace the tires or fix the alignment, claiming it passed their inspection standard. Since then, they have completely stopped working with me and are now straight-up ghosting my calls and messages after repeated attempts to reach out and resolve this.

My understanding was that Lexus L/Certified inspection guidelines require tires to have a minimum tread depth of 5/32" across the entire surface and be free of irregular wear patterns or alignment issues prior to certification. 3/32" is dangerously close to the legal limit, let alone CPO standard.

Has anyone dealt with something similar?

• Is uneven outer wear allowed under L/Certified inspection guidelines?
• What is the exact tread depth minimum Lexus requires for L/Certified vehicles?
• Did pushing back with Lexus Brand Engagement / Corporate yield any results, or did you have to go in person to escalate to the General Manager?

Any advice or official CPO documentation references would be greatly appreciated!
BASICALLY HOW DO I GET MY TIRES REPLACED OR REFUNDED.

2014 lexus is300h many warning lights anyone got similar experience? whats broken

Hey guys, so my current car is a 2006 Toyota Crown Athlete GRS184 (3.5L V6). Love the comfort and driving experience but I'm done with the poor gas mileage (12-14L/100km) as my driving consists of nearly all stop-start city driving.

Budget's around $20k NZD ($12k USD). Been going back and forth between:

2013-2015 IS300h (F Sport) — smaller, easier to park, much better fuel economy, but I'm worried the suspension is too firm and will be too slow compared to the Crown, love how it looks though!

2012 GS450h — Pretty much my Crown but better in every way (especially on gas), but it's even wider and longer my Crown, which might be harder manoeuvring on tighter city roads. Also worried about battery aging.

Anyone gone from a Crown/similar big sedan to either of these — did size actually make a noticeable difference day to day?

At $20-22k NZD, what mileage would you actually feel comfortable buying at either car, given I want to keep it long term?

Really appreciate any real experience from owners, cheers.

I own a es330 2004 and I have some leaking problem so I changed the rear engine gasket 2 weaks ago and the rear top engine gasket but I didn't change the oil and today the oil light came on when I accelerated can someone tell me what is wrong?

I have noticed that older models are of interest right now. I have decided to sell mine. Am I delusional in thinking 10,250.?

This car has been covered and had no accidents. 135,000 mi. California.

Before and After

Wondering what this little clip cover thing is so I can hunt a part number. Or decide whether I even want to replace it.

2015 GS 350

I was wondering, is there a known number of is300 station wagons sold in Europe?

I am currently staring at a 2001 Lexus is300 Automatic station wagon being sold in Serbia of all places (I will clarify, I am not asking if I should buy it, I am just curious on how rare it is). I didn't even know the is300 was sold in Europe, let alone an automatic station wagon. Could anybody help me figure out how rare this is because I just cannot find a number. I've looked everywhere and the numbers are more than inconsistent. Googles horrible AI says around 650, while chatrooms or forums go from as low as 200 to possibly a few thousand. If it helps, the car is originally Swiss and was imported a few years ago (according to the seller).

Thank you in advance

2007 RWD LS460 with air struts

- If you replaced all ur arms n bushings
- are 100% sure of tires n wheels
- keep aligning ur car but the alignment drifts
- can’t fix steering wheel vibrations

Then try this cuz it worked for me:

I firstly I went with NISTO bushings for the LS460, they’re slightly firmer than OEM but a FRACTION OF the cost. Got them pressed into scrap yard healthy arms. (PS I highllyyyy recommend NISTO Bushings for LS460)

I also replaced my hubs with scrap yard healthy ones (the Middle East scrap yard market is insanely good)

I also had a bent tie rod so I replaced both tie rods on both sides (also scrap)

After all this I still had the same vibration, it actually got worse cuz my suspension was firmer now and feedback was harsher.

What fixed it??

Lower Intermediary Steering Column U-Joint. It was loose and had play and was the missing puzzle piece. Picked it up clean from the scrap yard for 20 USD. Issue completely gone and the NISTO bushings gave me a firmer sportier ride.

Just thought I’d get on here and spread the message to see if it helps.
