Thank you! I bought a 2015 RX350 from a reputable dealer on 04/20/23 with less than 63000 miles with clean Carfax but I will take it to an experienced Lexus mechanic this month for him to go over with a fine tooth comb. I am hoping this will last decades as I drive less than 8000 miles yearly. I am very pleased and have had no issues in the weeks since purchase.
I saw this guy at Tejuosho Mall today. . About the sluggishness of this car, it's not really sluggish. Everything about it is adaptive. It has an adaptive drive by wire system that learns the drivers pattern. If you are a slow driver, the car becomes slow overtime and then frustrate a random person trying to push it. Unplug the batteries for 5mins and perform the idle relearn. You will be shocked how quick the car will respond afterwards. Also, the 2GR and 4GR engines suffer carbon build up in the exhaust valve due to the direct port injection system. Drive the car really hard from time to time to break off the sludge and the engine will become much more responsive.
Finally someone that actually knows what he's saying!! I own a rx 350 2011 and I've raced several German suvs and and won.. Including the so called Mercedes benz ml 350. I was confused when he was talking about sluggishness😂😂😂
I was confused when He said the car is sluggish. I use the 2015 model it very very responsive. My own is very fast and responsive maybe bcuz of the year though. the one He did review with is 2010 version. One of friends drives GLE 350 2016 and we race lots of time when we have outings it always same thing or slightly different. @Crank if you stay in Mainland I can bring my own for you drive it. I learnt our to drive with a V8 car and I have always like fast cars. But this RX350 is not sluggish as you painted it
You failed to mention this in the Camry I’m glad you did in this video. The Lexus IS good at loosing stability and traction when you drive fast and swerve. It’s just that piece of stability on high speed that makes me admire the Benz
The 2019/2020 is the latest generation and it doesn’t have any of these issues mentioned …the main issue with it is that the infotainment has a very bad user experience…response of the screen is slow, navigating the screen is also complex.
@@solibay2006 obviously you are not aware of the Acura MDX oil consumption issue. Honda pilot also burns oil unless you disable the variable cylinder management system
Great video. Keep up the good work. You raised a very important issue. I cannot understand how people buy a car for so much money and then skip maintenance.
Your review here is just perfect 😊 unlike the CLA review you did, it was just like you personally hated the car 😂.. I'm a big fan of the Toyota company and RX350 isn't a slow car at all, once you have a good maintenance habit and you're not a careless driver, you're good to go.. Keep it up bro 🙌wish to meet you someday ♥️♥️
Thumbs up for the review of this car. Great job.. had to trade mine off. All issues mentioned got me to a point of frustration, i just had to let go despite its beauty and appearance. First on my list was the sluggish acceleration and considering that a venza xle runs pretty well on same engine, i was no longer willing to bottle the issues. In addition, it has a 1500rpm exhaust drone sound which gets really noisy and annoying when the car gets hot. Despite recalls and newsletters by lexus to solve the drone issue. It was never really solved. Nice car albeit for the issues, doesnt hit a 10/10
Well you need to check mine out, I have the RX350L 2018 which is worth almost 45m in Nigeria and I bought mine brand new, the RX IS the most beautiful Lexus out there
🤣🤣🤣 Omo skipping maintenance is really really bad, My parents skipped the service on Thier Lexus RX300 once and after that engine knockkkk.. So always maintain your car
GOOD JOB BRO ..buh that brake getting hot issue omo I BELIEVE THATS WHAT MAKE A LOT OF THIS IS350/250 crash alot …omo i experienced this brake failed response issue with a GS350 while doing. 140km/h it was just God woo😂
Crank the analyzer of 234 Drive is getting better and deep with his analysis!… Thank you Crank for the honest and bitter truth review… We hope to get off-road testing and drag racing testing from you soon!… You videos are colourful and relatable… Thanks for using everyday terms and descriptions to analyze these cars…
I was thinking of getting this Rx 350 2009 model BUT this issue of brake fading or failure is what i don't understand. Cos sum people have never experienced it and the SUV is common here in Nigeria. So is it a particular model dat has the brake issues or all d models from rx330 2004 to rx350 2011. Please i will need some clarity on that thanks
Break fading! This happened to me and my guys just last Friday while we were traveling for a wedding. I was driving a 2012 Camry and my guy a 2013 Avalon. The breaks faded at the same time but thank God we were no longer on the highway and almost at our destination but my guy still crashed against the hotel wall while trying to park. Crazy moment!
@@wahabanjorin7662 it’s basically when the brakes loses friction needed to stop the car in an appropriate amount of time. It is caused by excess heat from braking repeatedly.
Brake fading affects all Toyotas, personally experienced it with 2002 Camry and 2012 corolla....Some vehicles like BMW X3 don't have this issue of brake fading....
Good work Crank. Would really love a 2014-2016 Lexus es350 review. I know you guys did similar before but it wasn’t detailed. Also a Toyota Venza review will be much appreciated. Cheers
Hi @234drive, hi Crank, please make a review about the Ford Ranger 2016 model. I'm thinking of buying it over the hillux since it's cheaper, it would be great and highly helpful if you can make a video review about the Ford Ranger. 2016 upward sha. One love Crank. ✌️
Please do an in depth review of Mercedes benz ml 350 2014 and 2015 please. Can't seem to get myself to like any other suv, i have been struggling with this decision for a year plus now and my family needs an suv asap.
Good one boss! pls can you do a video for affordable hatchbacks in Nigeria? Toyota especially, like the Hatchback Corolla, Yaris, Auris, maybe Scion XD?!🙏🙏
Lexus RX models are less stable on highway at high speed & highly prone to rollovers at sharp bends. I hope the later models fixed this issues. Every other thing feels great.
Review Hondas also.....they are close competition of toyota. After jumping to Honda from Toyota, Honda is equally reliable and fun to drive, cheaper to maintain. Newer models don't have the idiopathic leg pull.
Nice review am planning to come to Nigeria and am looking for a nice suv I buy I was looking at rx 350 but with that brake issues is no no because I will be traveling a lot on a high speed I don’t want the brake to fail me do you have video on ML?
Please please it will be really appreciated if you can do a review on bmw 320i 2013 I've been looking into getting it and it would be nice first car for me

Keep up the good work Crank... Watched so many reviews but glad yours comes with a different vibe... Like home made akara vs fast food akara
Great video. Keep up the good work. You raised a very important issue. I cannot understand how people buy a car for so much money and then skip maintenance.
My favorite thing about this car is the newer model face lift/upgrade. Gives it this aggressive sexy look
