When the LFA was new they had one doing the rounds at Lexus dealerships. My brother and I went in to the Elizabeth Street dealership in Melbourne for a look and a bloke came out to show us over the car. Let us sit in it, opened and shut everything, pressed every button and then he fired it up and nearly blew the windows out of the joint rev bombing it for us. He must have spent 20 minutes with us two yobbos who were obviously nowhere near ever going to buy it. When we left he gave me his card. He was the dealer principal. Amazing. At a Ferrari showroom the receptionist wouldn't have even acknowledged us let alone let us sit in a car. What a legend that bloke was. Made two more Lexus fans that day. Amazing car, the LFA.
What a legend haha
He is still waiting for you to return.
Gotta love revving a cold engine!
Receptionist 😂😂😂 like they can buy a ferrari with some employee discount 🤣
So did you ever buy a Lexus in the end?
ISF owner here and for the money you can't really beat it as a package, got my 2011 for $33K
I agree. The ISF is the perfect size and great performance. I like it over the GSF but would take a GSF is the right one becomes available
Agree, I opted for the RCF that V8 is incredible.
IS F owner here too, it's great
On a grocery run the other day I saw a smartly dressed gent get out of his Lexus LC 500, obviously to buy martini supplies. Wow what a beautiful car. I mean stunning. And the owner surely knows he’s the coolest and smartest guy in town. How the LC is off the sports car radar is beyond me. Great vid as always!
No need to put music cutting in and out when cars come on the screen man.
Happy to just listen to speaking the entire time.
Yep, this stood out a lot.
Was annoying
I know the editor was losing it too
+1 for the Honda Jazz. I bought a 2006 model with all the kilometers on it for $1,800 earlier this year to help me move an all motorcycle household with the intention of reselling it once I was done. Four months later & there's a third of my motorcycle collection on the chopping block & listed for sale to make room for the little Jazz nugget in the garage. It's such a practical little thing I can't bring myself to get rid of it. It's so practical that a mate who has a dual cab Hilux asked me to help him pick up a table that wouldn't fit in the back of his ute & the little Jazz swallowed it whole.
Bought ours new in 2006, havent got the heart to lose it! Paint on roof fading, cvt auto rumbles, but still love it! And you are dead right, these things have more useable room than some utes and wagons...
@@playedon78 Mine's a manual with over 320,000 km & it drives like it's done half that. The boot is a tad over 350 liters, or a massive 1200 liters with the rear seats down. It's almost as much as a 2024 Mazda CX-5.
@@ADingoTookMyDasco i do envy you with the manual - the cvt was the only real negative and sluggish by comparison
…how does one operate in an “all motorcycle household”??, seriously I can’t even begin to imagine.🤔
Those first gen Honda Jazzi hide a dirty little secret or two, first, they all like to leak water at the seams around the hatch hinge area (easy fix)
Second secret is, they are simply a wheel and tyre upgrade away from quite the track car, like who knew?
The wooden feeling steering that loves to refuse to self centre at low speed turns into sharp, class leading steering when pushed hard.
Drive one on standard tyres, and never push it hard through the corners, you'de never ever know.
A Yaris feels superior driving at 5 to 6 tenths, a JazziFitty is in another league at 7 to 10 10ths.
Also of course, the amount of crap they can "fit" in, outstanding.
Gotta have an honourable mention for the Suzuki Swift Sports (2007 era)
2008✌️
I'm 78yo. I have been driving a 2015 FRS since it was new. Now ten years old and 74,000 miles. Absolutely nothing has gone wrong with it so far. I have owned over 60 cars in my lifetime and this is the most fun to drive car ever. For under $26,000 new, how could I go wrong.
It is very difficult to find that sort of value nowadays. Cars are way over priced now.
@@kuldipsingh366can buy a 10 yr old “frs/86/Brz” for half that price now
Whats a FRS?
@@stuartstibbs2069Toyota GT86 badged as a Scion FRS in the USA
@@550r Ahh ok. Thanks. I reckon we get them here in Australia. Toyota and Subaru share a model here...its a nice looking little sporty job. I reckon thats it. 🍺🦘🦘
Love my 2019 Mazda 6 GT wagon. Beautiful to drive, super-reliable and looks great in grey on big alloys. I have a family of 4 but find SUVs too ‘floaty’ and a bit dull. If you want a sporty looking/feeling family car it has to be a wagon 😊
Great episode guys. I moved out of a 2002 Camry V6 touring wagon after 22 years which had 335000 KMs as I have now retired. Nothing wrong with the Camry, always serviced and NO major mechanical issues.( Yes batteries, alternators and services!
But the fuel cost and minor issues( remote locking, antenna etc) made me regretfully sell.
I bought a 2020 Corolla touring hybrid wagon from Go Garage.
A brilliant car and saving me up to $50 per week in fuel.
Let me know if you want to show it in a future vid.
Keep up the great work. Cheers, Carl
Random suggestion can we have some older retro cars on the channel? Be cool to see them featured and see how they’re standing up
The Lexus LC 500 is a special build line. The workers so nothing but the LC500. MY Skyline had a Prince in front of it. Grey body with a dark blue top and orange strip. Twin, Triple DCOE 40mm Webbers and had a hidden switch that turned plow understeer into snap oversteer at 150kph. I recorded 137mph down Conrod Strait in 1968. I could still see, hear and recover from a hangover in less then 20 hours then. But yes Adam, almost any wagon looks great with a slight drop. My Skoda Wagon has just had a complete engine rebuild so I understand the feeling the owner of the Octavia must be feeling right now. Great video guys.

I bought my Son a 2004 Accord Euro 18 months ago thanks to your review. After taking care of some neglected maintenance issues it runs like a dream with 267,000 klm on the clock. Everything works fine and with an aftermarket head unit and reverse camera it's a perfect first car.
3 things …
1. Excellent content as usual …
2. For client confidentiality sake yeah do note the rego of that broken Octavia was clearly visible ..
3. I owned a Kizashi - agree in manual form that would easily be the equal of the Accord Euro … but unfortunately the CVT in mine (fast changing manual mode aside) dulled the heck out of the car, and the one deal breaker for me was how slow it was in engaging reverse and back to drive again when rushed to park quickly in shopping centres. The ride was also jiggly at best but I think I would have forgiven that if in manual form.
I’m driving a 2001 Ford Laser SR2. Up to 318,000 km’s now. Great old car.
A GT car that should be on that list is the Lexus RC 350 FSport.
2005 Lexus RX330 with the 3MZ is one of the best mid 2000s SUVs in my opinion. However I agree with Jim on the 3MZ fuel use, the car is excellent until you've gotta tap your card at the petrol station or until you look at the dash and see you're using 17 or 18 litres per 100km.
In addition to an already great list. I recently got myself a zc33s swift sport and it’s so much fun for the money. Handles like a go kart and feels quick, especially on the street.
Honestly expected the majority of the cars on this list, but I was surprised that the Toyota Century wasn't mentioned as a pick to buy.
I quite often see many Kizashis driving around town and was one of only 2 cars that were a surprise on the list.
The other suprise car was the Rukus as I recently saw one in the metal in base spec but in a dark blue and it was honestly impressive too see.
The GT2000 that was used in the James Bond film You Only Live Twice actually had too be made into a convertible as Sean Connery was too tall for it making the only convertible version of it in the world.
Great video guys and as always keep up the good work guys and look forward to next week's videos as per usual 👍.
Subaru Liberty pre awful CVT generation were awesome cars. Also wagons cost more to register in Australia so it’s not rocket science why the sedans were more popular.
Wagons are classed as a commercial vehicle.
What state charges more for wagon rego?
Not an Australian thing, maybe in your state.
@@mattdebyl8806…NSW.😊
The LC500 is the best looking car on the road today. It actually looks like a prototype that went into production without being molested by sensible people.
Best channel ever for used cars !!
My quick list:
Small car - Swift Sport (not really in the sports car category, better looking and more fun than any of those mentioned).
Small SUV - RAV4 Gen 1, import with beams engine preferred. CX3. Or, hear me out (because I reckon this will be on the do-not-buy list), Nissan Juke. But MUST be 1.6T and manual. CVT is garbage, but the manual 1.6T is a hoot and yeah polarising looks when it came out etc. BUT honestly those are like the weird JDM models we never get but were actually sold here. Only small Japanese SUV with some spice sold here. Lastly, Vitara Turbo. Cracking good little car. Look sharp without being silly. Practical, efficient, reliable, fun, super light. Fabulous little car.
‘Medium’ (whatever that is as it seemed to skip the Corolla class entirely - Accord Euro, Mazda 3 (the newest one), Blade Master G, Altezza.
Medium SUV - I dunno, they all seem pretty dreary. Have that Rukus over about any of them. V6 RAV4 I guess. Actually probably the 2 Gen body CRV like AK bought for a bit. They’re rad and cheap.
Large car - Lexus IS-F.
Large SUV - Like, I dunno, FJ cruiser or a 90 series Prado maybe.
Sports cars - MX5. S2000. NSX. 240Z. Celica GT4. S800. S660. MR2 Spider.
Crazy - Toyota GT2000.
Love my swift sport.. coolest looking small car on the planet and so much fun it’s ridiculous!
Large SUV I would go 2015 J150 Prado. Updated pistons 1KD engine. Very reliable.
Why does the Suzuki GTi swift never show in your radar? The 90s pocket rocket, ive had mine since new 30years on
GTIs are pretty rare here these days. Swift Sport is a regular fixture on these guys lists of great cars (because they are). I guess it just didn’t make the basic bland small car category nor the sports car category.
IS350 F-Sport!
inb4 "Japanese cars we WONT buy!" is just nissans
Godzilla (Skyline), 240Z, 300ZX TT, 350Z?
@@fredfish4316 I have a 240Z . worked 12.9 et and a 370Z stock 13.2 et . All I need to keep me happy.
I’m surprised the swift didn’t make an appearance
…and the Odyssey.
Too expensive for a barebones “cheap” car
You guys got to do a vid on a Mitsubishi Colt Ralliart, been looking for one as it's a pocket rocket
I have the MZR CD 2.2 185 hp Mazda 3 Diesel and absolute 0 Problems since 200k Kilometers.
You guys are the best! Just keep doing what you do. Such intelligent and pertinent commentary that is truly helpful in your choice as a buyer!😊
Can I just say, the CX-5 in the 2L form is one of the most gutless pieces of shite I've ever driven. Got one as a hire car and had the misery of wringing its wheezy neck from the Gold Coast to Albury NSW and Back. Worst four days of my life. Each time it came to a hill it screamed louder than school girl at a Taylor Swift concert, and then went backwards. B-doubles were overtaking it like it was standing still. Never again
😅😅😅😅 great description
They come in 2.5 L option and theres a sport mode or overdrive gear under the pedal when you push pedal further hits a button Its fast for for 4 cylinder suv
I agree. It should be standard 2.5L at the base trim model. The lack in power isn’t worth the barely better fuel efficiency. I am getting about the same or better in my CX-30 with the 2.5L and AWD VS the CX-5 2L FWD.
@@stevendellavo1959 I'd have to imagine if your 2.5L isn't putting in major overtime like the 2L all the bloody time, you'd have to be getting far better mileage on the hwy at least.
@@HaiNguyen-lf1mq Mazda really should go to prison for building that 2L. Pity the hire companies don't offer the 2.5L as an option then.
Just love the conversation between you two bouncing off each other and so funny! Nice one guys
Shorter video length than I thought
Should’ve good on for a year lol
You forgot the Mazda RX-7 and Nissan 300ZX from around the year 2000. Still look great 25 years later!! The 300ZX is probably the more reliable I imagine!
The VG30's in the 300zx are notoriously difficult to work on, not just because there's no room around it but there's so much crap going on in there that there are so many possible things that CAN break
lol 300zx ( along with the Mitsubishi gto ) in both NA & Twin turbo applications, are some of the most unreliable & expensive to fix jap junk from the early 90s until production stopped 🤦♂️
They didn't rate it when they reviewed the FD Rx7. One of my all time favs however are not a car (well...any rotary) to recommend to a non car person.. requires commitment or it will be the most unreliable car you'll ever own.. and yes, I own an Rx8 and its sensational but would never recommend it to someone with zero mechanical understanding or unwillingness to commit to the Rotary system of ownership. - if you can do that, you have a reliable car :-)
i Really like this channel, great reviews and great people. But do you guys realize that you are an involuntary ad campaign for tourism in Australia ? The landscape in the videos and the laid back attitude of the team really make me want to discover Australia and its people.
Surprised CX3 was not on the small SUV list.
As an old Classic sports car, surely you guys rate the Series 2 (1st gen) Rx7? Glad you didn't miss the LC500 though.. what a car and would LOVE to own one of those. As a Rotary guy, this is a V8 car I'd love to own.
Had the privilege of seeing a LFA in the metal/carbon close up, and you can too!
In the Toyota automobile museum in Nagoya Japan, that and so many other makes and models, something for everyone there.
Thumb up for the DC2 Type R!
I bought a used a Honda Jazz 2nd Gen with the CVT for my first car, it was smooth but developed a bearing noise from the gearbox with less than 80,000 miles. People forget the service interval for the CVT gearbox is 2 years only.
Extremely disappointing, a part from that everything worked including the panoramic glass which made the car feel huge on the inside.
Honda Jazz, Pajero and HRV are cracking cars. I've owned all three, and they've never let me down. I agree that LFA would be my dream purchase.
I was lucky enough to be invited to the launch of the then-new Lexus GS back in the early 20-teens and it was being held at a private circuit up on the central coast. What I wasn't expecting was for Lexus to have an LFA there too. Though we weren't allowed to sit in it, they did have it do a few laps with a racing driver behind the wheel. O M G ... . I'd already loved the car but to hear that engine sing in real life ... to this day I've never heard anything as magical.
Agree with basically everything you guys mentioned. Just surprised you skipped the medium (as it is here in Europe) category. Stuff like the Civic, Mazda 3 etc.
Would you be able to take a look at a Mazda 323 GT-R, if you can lay your hands on one? (Not the GTX, but the proper GT-R)
DC2 R mentioned! 😁 Mine's got the black Recaros too. MX-5 obvs. Very good call with the Celica GT4. Great car.
18 months ago I got a diesel NW Pajero, great SUV now with 260k on it but drivers like new, slowly building into a touring car and all round off roader.
You know for me, I'd have wanted to see R31 Passage GT in the list there. Those old pillarless sedans were just so amazing, and the mid-80s plush velour armchairs inside were next level.
I'd hate to have an accident in one, but man. I always wanted to do a Passage wagon build.
Adam- look at the later (later) edition Accord Euro wagon - totally awesome and they completely fixed it! I think you will like it.
Someone in the comments called it, they forgot the Suzuki Swift, but that's a good thing, don't want the prices skyrocketing!
Kizashi has the J24 engine which is a bit of a pile of junk compared to most Suzuki engines. You don’t get them coming through not because they’re reliable, but because there aren’t many of them around. Dynamically they were better than the Accord Euro, but engine and weight was a huge letdown. Interesting, but not one to be on the ‘buy’ list.
You could argue that the Mark X Zio is the Camry wagon you missed in Aus, with either the 2.4 or the mighty 2GR 3.5L.. contemplating one as my next daily
From the Lexus Australia website: LEXUS LBX MORIZO RR ... coming soon! Adam? ... Lexus are listening! :)
Click like before even watching because Redriven always deliver quality videos!

I don't know if you had/have the Nissan Primera P12 (2003-2007) in Asutralia, but they are selling dirt cheap in Europe and are generally reliable cars with mainly small annoying issues = the best bang for the buck Japanese older cars. I see them on sale with +400.000Km and fresh MOT. I bought a 2007 1.8L full spec Primera with leather interior, color reversing camera, active cruise control, rain sensor, auto dimming mirrors.... with only 134.000 Km for 1000€. Unbeatable value for very little money. Just one thing to keep in mind, the 1.8L (QG18DE) engine suffers from the same issue as many Toyota's = it burns oil but its just how that engine is. The 1.6L (QG16DE) variant has a very weak gearbox. The 2.0L QR engine has cam chain issues. So the best alternative is the 1.8L burns some oil, but has a stronger gearbox and no known chronic cam chain issues.
no primeras here
My pic?
Would be this segment without the annoying and distracting background music.
Yep music is ridiculous
Did you get the Toyota C Hr in Australia? As a daily driver they’re right up there for me used to drive one regularly and they’re great
In the Mazda 6 part; it shows a manual. What year model is that? And were they available here in manual?
Manuals were axed in Australia for the third generation. Only the more advanced countries could continue to buy the manual.
@@rowanbyers2071 I didn't even realise manuals could be had in the Mazda6 3rd gen here. I know the 3's etc had them, even in 4th gen vehicles.
A hugely underrated car that people forget about and is near impossible to find now is a Toyota celica st162 sx. Only in SX form though with the 3sge motor. Yamaha designed cylinder head. Revs hard and goes better than the spec sheet says. Excellent handling chassis as well. I'd love a mint 87/88 model in manual form please. Red or maroon in colour please
Bloody great show gents. Super enjoyable
Hoorah for the Outback! Call me a glutton for punishment, but my driveway is full of Alfas and Subarus and I wouldn't have it any other way. The wife has a 2019 Forester (our third), while I've got two Alfas ('81 GTV and '02 156 GTA which til a month ago was my daily) and a freshly acquired gen2 '02 Outback 2.5 manual. Bought solely as a cheap daily to flog on the work run, its done over 250,000km - but everything works (inc AC and windows), the headgaskets were replaced with MLS ones at the same time as the timing belt was done and a heavy duty clutch and single mass flywheel fitted about 30,000km ago. Man I love this thing: with its 2" lift kit, HD offroad tyres, spotties, bullbar and CB. All acquired for the princely sum of $1800 with rego paid til end of January.
Awesome video guys! Cheers!
No matter how cool the wagons might be, I would never buy one. From my side of the world (i.e. South Africa); wagons were very popular with funeral undertakers for obvious reasons. For the most part, they still carry that stigma, and that's reason enough for me never to touch them. This is compounded by the fact that I buy mostly second hand...
Any second-hand wagon has transported dead bodies for sure 💀💯
nearly bought a Lexus NX, love the interior but too generic outside... also looked for a Rukus for a while but wasn't one with the right options at the time.
Nissan K11 Micra was one of the most fun cars I've ever owned (& I've had quite a few, including an E39 540i). Driven rapidly on twisty, undulating roads in Tasmania for a couple of years. FUN!
Honestly any small car like that is loads of fun, especially after coming out of a big car).
The original Nissan Silvia is one of the most gorgeous Japanese cars of all time.
I'm surprised that none of the rotary Mazdas got a look-in in the final category.
What about Mazda 3? Feel like you guys forgot about it.
Feels like they skipped that whole category. Like it was Yaris then Accord Euro, nothing in between.
Yeah, like the Toyota Corolla. I had a 1985 model, my daughter now has a 2005 one as her first car.
I use the Mazda system to identify what’s large, medium and small too! I thought I was the only one who did that! Mazda 2=small 3=medium 6=largeish
And let’s be honest the Mazda 6 wagon is the only car anyone could ever need
Mx-5s goat of sports cars
They also used to make a hatch 6 which is nearly as practical and you see a lot of those and a lot of sedans but the wagon is the most underrated thing ever
Aurion is my pick. I'm a sucker for those bland, boring and unattractive Japanese sedans. And it was locally made. I used to work for one of the major parts supplying companies for TMCA. Done a whole lot of parts for Camrys and Aurions.
I have a 2008 Aurion Sportivo SX6. So much fun to drive. I just wish I could prise my husband out of the drivers seat…😂
@@kymharris269 awesome. How's it serving you? Any problems? Heard series 40 cars can suffer from pulling to the left and oil cooler/vvti lines break easily due to being made from rubber. And there's a rattle on cold starts.
Can you make a video like this, but for British Cars?
What happened to the Suzuki Swift Sport? You have mentioned it quite a few times in other posts. Such a fun and cheap car to drive..
I've got the current model, great car. I was less impressed with the previous model, with very different engine characteristics, needing more revs, many more gear changes. Was a great car, but would be tedious around town.
RAV4 lover checking in (2006 no oil burn)
Love the video, appreciate the ideas you can produce for younger generations
The Problem with teh RAV4: It's way, but way, too expesive for what it is, like hilariously expensive, especially compared to the competition.
The same goes for both the Yaris and Corolla Cross, it's probably a thing with were I live (we have a 100% tax on new cars here with Toyota Whorship cult) but still.
You can really get a way micer car from the competition for the price they adk for the RAV4.
Another absolutely brilliant video. What do you think of the mazda 323 sp20?
@@hughedwards4511 Had one of them here in the UK. They were the 323 Sport here in hatch body style only. Mine was an '02 in as new condition purchased in '04. I liked it very much. Looked great with the standard fit body kit in bright 'sunlight silver'. It also had aftermarket tinted glass which made it even cooler. It was a lot of fun to drive too with the smooth and revy 2.0 dohc engine with ample power. Handled and gripped and had a lovely manual gearbox typical of Jap cars. Totally reliable too. I replaced it with a MK1 Mazda 3 1.6 saloon which I never warmed to. Sold that six months later for an Impreza which was a great car.
Awesome picks! But a suggestion.. Timestamps/ Categories would'veade this a much better video.
The RAV 4 2nd generation model I drive still drives smoothly. I guess I'm yet to be disappointed
FL5 Civic Type R. You need to drive one boys.
I've just realized that in my 40+ years, every vehicle that I've owned yet, has been Japanese. Practical, affordable and durable.
I kind of like the old 2-door Rav4 4x4 because I wish there were more small (single person) tall (visibility) 4x4 (country driving) SUV's around.
No stagea?
No century?
P.s. I have a new WRX, manual, WRC blue.... best thing Subaru has made to date (other than rarities like the 22b of course)
Team, if you can get your hands on an Euro R, you’ll love it. Had one back in NZ, good fun.
For the small cars category you should do a review on the Nissan Note E13 E-Power, Ive seen some being imported in Australia, would love to see you do a review on it
I reckon they did a review of it.
Think they may have done it...
Great video, but a dual cab ute section would be great.
As the owner of current cx5 petrol, the moment i got in it proper sorted handling, drive one at night, led lights are cracker!

Cheers mate!
9:09. "Absolutely no Mazda diesels..." Effing bollox. My 8.5 yr Mazda 2 skyactivD has run like a dream. An O2 sensor fixed for free outside of warranty, rear shock bump-stops and a battery are the only things that have been fixed/replaced. It is stunningly reliable. Serviced every 6 months to the day. Averages 4.0li/100km and I drive like a lunatic.
Altezza over IS200 in whatever list it was that Jim added it to as a late entry. Yes, import, but not really a problem with those.
Toyota Starlet EP 82 turbo and the Skyline R32 ia with some light mods is kinda cool.
Suzuki Swift Sport in Champion Yellow!!
surprised you guys didn't mention the nissan stagea
Wagon, Rb26 ? very cool looking
Can't remember if you mentioned this or not but the Datsun 240Z rates a mention also the Nissan R35 GT-R
Hi boys having my car serviced, went for a walk and came accross this car yard . I could not believe. my eyes, there was a toyota century sitting there. So I walked in and had a look at this thing. v12 . it was in realy good nick, so the sales guy came up to me and we got talking about it. I asked him if I can sit behind the wheel he said go for it mate, what a car ! Thats another one of the bucket list. $38.000. he wanted for it.
Yes, insane Toyota and Lexus don't make a wagon. Id love one in a 4 turbo, V6 or V8. Need to update my V8 Calais wagon.
Looking forward for a FK8 or FL5 Type R review
Definitely keen on a ruckus review
Paj Evo should have been in the performance vehicle section.
Any other shorty paj should have taken it's spot
Given your reviews, I would have considered Suzuki Vitara 1.4 Turbo for small suv
Please do the Aussie cars that you would and wouldn't buy!
They have never mentioned the 380, they are too young.
The best japanese wagon for me is the Mitsubishi Legnum VR-4...
Would have thought the Nissan Skyline GTR, Nissan 200sx and Toyota Supra would have got a mention.
