Thank you for the review. I am a owner of a 2013 Lexus GS 350 AWD, white with black interior. I am very pleased to see that this car has held up, even at 240,000 miles. I absolutely love my car. I used to own a Cadillac STS V8 before this and there is no comparison. This car is sharper, precise, and accelerates effortlessly compared to the Cadillac I used to own that was a tank and generated a lot of heat from the engine compartment. The interior of the Lexus GS is a very nice place to be. When you arrive at your destination, you find yourself not really wanting to step outside of the car. 😀 One thing I will mention though, my GS DOES have double pane glass on all four car door windows. I confirmed before writing this. In any way, I have no regrets. I holla.
Beautiful ride my friend yea such an amazing car for sure and very nice driving dynamics. I noticed the glass was pretty thick, like on the LC it doesn't have that indent in the glass but I noticed it was very thick so I'm assuming it was the same for the GS. Thanks again for stopping by
@@MrMustangrick 2013 to 2015 models do. Mine does, and you are excused. Exhaust Sports Auto even responded to me and explained that he noticed the glass on the GS is pretty thick. The term used is not dual pane but Acoustic Windows. Cheers!
MrMustangrick They do have it on US models as well. It’s also available for you to order on Lexus Parts online... And it’s not only available for the GS, it’s also available for the ES 350 as well...
Do you have an opinion on the RC 350 base model of around the same age? I've not owned one yet, but I'm assuming it'll be roughly the same quality as an ES or GS.
Thank you so much! I definitely do try my best to cover those key vehicles like this that are commonly looked at either used or new and Im so happy you appreciate that my friend. Thanks again for stopping by
@@MeynMotorGroup so glad that you’re still going at it. Best, honest reviews on RUclips. Thank you very much! Liked, subscribed and shared. My absolute favorite RUclips channel by far.
Nice! I’m have a 2013 GS 350 that I plan on giving to my son. He’s 4 at the moment. Every time I load him up in the car I say “This car is going to be yours in the future!” 😂
Great realistic review. My 2013 GS is creeping up on 100k miles 4 years later yet feels and drives like it has lights years left to give. The response is still amazing, a solid all season car that’s fun to drive even in harsh MN winters. Lexus reliability remains second to none. Here’s to many more miles.
@@thaddmidd3359 I have not replaced any major parts, only the typical expected during routine maintenance. Spark plugs, air/oil filters, tires e.t.c. Earlier on I had it maintained by the Lexus dealership and liked the service especially the loaners but later switched to my local mechanic who's equally as qualified and much cheaper.
The only thing is the sport ride stiff shocks they ride like a NASCAR read about it on the Lexus forum . There not known for a smooth ride on bumpy roads. They corner like a sports car. That get up and go passing gear is like a rocket if your going 6o and floor it your shot out of a cannon. I like mine .
Just bought a 2013 GS 350, with 120k miles, from a Mercedes dealership a few months ago. Paid $14.2k cash for it and I feel like I stole it. Feel bad for the guy who traded it in for a new Mercedes. He won't understand his mistake for a couple years. Scotty Kilmer lead me there. You made me appreciate my decision. Nice vid!
I’ll actually be in the market pretty soon. I’m most definitely looking at the GS. I was hesitant about one being over 60K miles, but now I most definitely feel more at ease about buying one with high Mileage.
300hp in a sedan is the sweet spot for daily driving IMO. The lexus 3.5L V6 is such an amazing engine, probably why so many cars in their lineup have it as an option.
Correct my friend 300-400 hp is perfect for street driving, enough to feel effortless and to have fun but not enough to get into ridiculous trouble or loose it
Thanks so much Jake, that really means a lot to me. Yes I try my best to give you guys the realist and most practical advise as I never got that personally when I was watching car reviews. I'm humbled you find value with it, thank you for stopping by
I have a 2015 GS 350 base, and it is without a doubt the best car I have ever owned, and I have owned many at 54 years old! Power, luxury, smooth ride, and ultimately reliable!
Your comment about the 2GR V6 engine is spot on - it's smooth, and delivers power consistently and effortlessly. It isn't a turbo 6, so there isn't that rush of torque at low rpm, but keeping this engine revved up is part of the fun. It sounds amazing when it's pushed, you're treated to wave after wave of naturally aspirated V6 snarls as the transmission shifts. It absolutely has more than enough power for street driving. It's not some bespoke engine that was hand assembled by one person. It's a mass produced Toyota V6 that exists across the entire Toyota/Lexus lineup. It was designed for hundreds of thousands of miles of service life, it is overbuilt and understressed and literally requires no maintenance other than oil changes. The evidence is right there in front of you, the car is 250k miles (400000 km!) and still runs like a dream.
@@MeynMotorGroup Doesn't work so well on other brands as the basic trim and the assembly is more flimsy, which means you can never fully resolve the creaking. Not so with Lexus! Great review by the way. 👍
These older Lexus cars are great. If you can follow a Chris Fix video, you'll have reliable, comfortable transportation for as long as you want to keep the car.
A friend has this car at about 300,000 miles, mostly highway. If i didnt look at the dash I would have thought he bought this car less than a year ago. I felt no rattles in the car each time i drove it, i felt more bumps in the two g80s i drove compared to this. This will be my next car. I still cant believe this car is from 2013 for what it offers
Oh my gosh geez, I too just took a Starfire Pearl White w/tan & brown leather interior out just the other day for a test drive. A 2015 350 GS w/44,000 miles. I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT. Drove like a dream. I can't get it off my mind. I want it! I know I'm going 2 end up going back to get it. Lol Happy Motoring in your Lexus. Enjoy & Be Safe 👍🏻
And yes its AWD, 18 way lumbar seats so comfortable. It has everything going ( so I guess it's the luxury pkg ) & it looks brand new lol. No accidents or problems of any kind was had by previous owners, I will be the 3rd owner.
Philly Stinson pretty much same here. I’m the 3rd owner. Previous owners took care of it very well. I’m in love with the car so far and it’s surprisingly fast, especially since it’s a big car and is AWD which puts it right under 4,000 lbs. This is coming from someone who’s driven 400+ hp V8’s. The starfire pearl is so beautiful in the sun too. And it’s a Lexus, they last forever with simple maintenance! Lol best of luck to you and your decision
I just bought a 2013 GS 350 with 120,000 back in June. I've had it for 2 months now and I love. I find myself driving on the back roads after work instead of racing home. The car feels and drives like a wet dream that you don't wake up from.
Have you had any problems so far? I'm really looking into one of these for my next car. I know a lexus should be reliable but possibly expensive to fix if something goes wrong.
Just purchased the same model from a Kia dealership lol - $15k at 89K miles in GA. Single Owner, no accidents. Drives soooo smooth and can easily drive another 10 years. Love the review, thank you.
I appreciate videos like these because the majority of online (& offline) reviewers fail to really address the longevity of a vehicle in terms of reliability and quality. I honestly feel that a car like the one reviewed here is hardcore testimonial of the reliability/quality of the Lexus brand than a brand new 2023 Mercedes Benz AMG. Please keep reviewing high mileage cars as the average time that American consumers hold onto vehicles (i.e. for new vehicles - 6 years; for used vehicles - 4 years) is significant for the majority of buyers including people like me who could afford any car I like. But, value is everything to me. One's car breaking down in the middle of the highway can be life threatening and the car manufacturer that allows me to go unscathed and come home each night has my loyalty as a current and future buyer, Ravi Peiris M.D.
You put smile on my face when I see a review that looks like my car! Well done and so good to see this review. The GS350 is a great car with a good v6 sound. Lovely to drive of course!
Great review showcasing the reliability and unrivalled build quality of this great brand. 250k miles and pulls like it still only has the delivery mileage on it, superb
Have you had any major or minor repairs that were a small fortune to fix? The reason I ask is because I want to buy one and I know even Lexus eventually brakes. So if I wanna keep mine for a long time will the cost of repairing it run me to another Lexus or Toyota?
I've owned close to 50 cars and my GS350 F-Sport is hands-down the best car I have owned. Just turned 112K on the clock (40K in the last 10 months) and it still looks, runs and smells like a new car. Perfection.
Simply one of the best vehicles Lexus ever built . It’s pricing killed it. It’s apples to oranges when comparing it to the ES. Just close the doors on both while looking and listening . I am on my third . 2015, 18 and I was lucky enough to locate one of the 215, 2020 GS F sport Blacklines. Totally point on with the transmission. More isn’t better . It’ got confused with 8. I am in NY and in my travels I haven’t seen another Blackline yet . That makes me smile . But a bigger smile on how well built these cars are. Real keeper Great review on an older model which still seems new.
Recently purchased a 2013 GS 350 with 64k. I plan on keeping the car until it falls apart and the best part is that I know it won’t for many many years
@@narutolol3199 real good, man. I’m at about 97k miles right now and have had no mechanical issues after routine maintenance. The only real defect I had to deal with on the car was when an A/C valve or something related got clogged, and it leaked some water into the passenger footwell. That was a couple hundred bucks to get fixed, but it was pretty minor overall. Other than that it’s been a hassle free experience
I just bought a 2013 GS 350 with 56,000 miles, one owner, one dealership throughout life of the car. Great find. I targeted the vehicle shortly after watching this video, so you basically led me to my car. Thank you for the in depth video.
I bought a 2015 GS about 6 months ago with 40k miles, it currently has 47k and so far have had no issues, very smooth and comfy, power is nice but I feel like it should be a little faster than it is... THE SOUND is what attracts me the most to it, the car sounds great. Girls love the car too... highly recommended. I work at Lexus so maintenance is very inexpensive for me.
this used review is so much more valuable than some new one from 9 years ago, i feel like this should be behind a ConsumerReports paywall! thanks for making this!
Yea man another subscriber explained to me perfectly why I didn't like the 2016 model because they not only put an 8 speed in the later models, they also lowered the torque or something apparently so it felt like a dog. So actually the 2013-2015 cars are superior and Im glad you got one my friend enjoy it!
Nice review bro! Last year I got a gs350 sport with 184k miles for under 10k, still runs and looks new. Prior I had an 06 gs300 awd with 370k and gave it to my brother who still drives it to this day. When it comes to Lexus miles doesn’t matter.
Bought a 17 year old Lexus RX330 AWD, 22,500 miles on it! Put a back back up cam with Waze in it. Powder coated the rims black. Dash cam and changed belts and hoses. Put snows on it and it’s a rocket ship. Saves my new car and it’s real comfortable…like new!
The 2013 GS350 you're in is still really fresh and solid! My 2001 ES just casually turned 344,000k.. can probably take on another decade! If I keep it beyond 25+yrs, will have to recondition or replace the front tan seat surfaces
Already knew my '13 GS trey-50 'Base' was a keeper the moment I copped it.. This honest review just solidified the fact.. Only @ 93k on the clock as of right now & looking forward to hitting that 250+k.. Appreciate you for this 1st-hand review..
Lexus/toyota never disappoint when it comes to reliability. I cant remember ever seeing a review of a 250k bmw or merc. My 318i at 44k miles was falling apart; suspension components, body and numerous engine issues. Lexus is the best made cars, period. This engine has been in IS/GS since 2007. I love the GS. Wanna get a ‘17 GS-f maybe in a year or so..when the price comes down a bit. Your LC is awesome but I think the 2020 GS f would’ve suited you more.
Sorry but 250k miles Mercedes are EVERYWHERE what are you talking about? Any 1990s to early 2000s Diesel or V6 Mercedes with 400k miles is just Common.
Want a reliable well built car buy an old Benz. No Lexus come close to that reliability and build quality in the interior department. As a Lexus JZS160 owner.
I love mg 2007 GS 350. It has 135,000 miles. My goal is to keep beyond 250,000. I hope it gets there. I take it to Lexus for all its service and maintenance. Its the most reliable car.
Look I'm so glad I didn't let the fact that the one I purchased today had 108K Miles on it. The dealer told me to think twice about buying a BMW 4 series just because it was only 72K Miles on it cause he said the Lexus is still a safer bet when it comes to reliability. I'm so glad the car is built to last and I hope mines last just as long.
i actually use to own a 2013 Lexus GS350 F sport. Loved it cool to see that these cars can stack miles. I put on roughly 45,000 miles on it in the two years i owned it bought it with around 35-40k miles. Never had a single issue with it. Great daily driver! Ive seen your video on the 2016 F sport and if im going to be honest its a bit slower than pre refresh models due to being much lighter. I recommend that car to anyone that wants this car. I actually miss mine a lot been trying to find it in hopes to buy it back but that's a long shot. only thing I would change is probably change the open diff out for an LSD. would make the car from driving perspective almost perfect!
That is awesome my friend yea such an awesome ride and you are correct the first few model years like 2013-2015 is the best years because they later went to the 8 speed and made the torque curve worse which is why the 2016 MY i drove felt so sluggish. These early model cars are a great find thanks again for sharing your experience!
Have a 2015 GS350 F-Sport in pure white that was purchased used back in the beginning of the year. I've driven the regular GS350 and I love the extras in the F-Sport. The 18-way seats with thigh and lumbar support are great for long drives too. The Mark Levinson sound system also makes all types of music sound amazing. Here's to another 10 years with this amazing car. Loved your review!
I just bought a 2015 GS350 AWD with only 43k miles and a/c seats. It's like brand new. The car is super quiet and keeps me nice and cool, including the a/c seating. Summer is in full swing here in south Florida so that's saying something. I think everything you said is right on point. I only wish I had the lighter RWD version since it does not snow here, but these cars are hard to find especially for the price I paid.
I sort of cringe when people compare any Lexus to a Hyundai. Lol. Doubtful you'd get this mileage out of a Hyundai & if you did it's still no Lexus. Or Toyota for that matter. Fantastic review. Superb car
I understand but definitely try something like a Genesis one day to get a feel for it especially the G80. But thank you so much my friend for stopping by and watching
Oh yea i knew you were referring to Paul haha that's why I told him to at least drive one it will change his mind. The Korean cars are just so impressive now and dude a G90 might even take the Crown for me. I can't believe how nobody is buying those Genesis cars lol
Whoa that is incredible my friend that is awesome to see you stop by here after buying from Anchor Auto. Its such a rare car and I really loved it haha 😄 enjoy and such a small world
I own a 2014 GS350 AWD (non F-Sport) same smoke grey color and almost same body style. Got it in 2017 at about 75k miles. The mirrors fold in on mine. My favorite car to date. (I’ve owned about 4 other Lexus ES models over the yrs - I still own a 2012 ES). I plan on keeping it another 2/3 yrs. excellent car. I’m at about 140K miles today.
Dang, I missed my opportunity on buying a used 2013 GS 350 with luxury package for $16,800 At 82k miles 😭 Nebula grey is such a clean color too. I’ll be on the lookout for another one. Great review!
Thank you! My family and girlfriend said that as well. “There will be another one!” Lol You’re welcome and your videos are awesome, stay healthy during these crazy times my friend!
I was just recently lucky enough to find an AWD GS350 F Sport with all the options and 100k miles for $14,999... I bought it the second day on the lot! Great Car so far!
Solid review man. Me personally I love my 2011 GS350 awd. I'm about to hit 100k miles within the next couple of weeks. Got it with 89k on it. When I say I absolutely positively love my GS350 I am in no way being biased because I own one but it truly is an amazing ride. Everyone loves it. Black on black with cherry red wood panels. Its everything i want in a luxury car
I had my mind hell bent set on purchasing an Infiniti Q50 Hybrid. Took one out for a drive, and slept on it. Today I travelled 400 kilometers to take a GS 350 out for a drive, and fell in love with it. I am now a proud owner of a star fire pearl GS 350 and I don't think I've been this satisfied in a long time.
I’ve been looking @ a 2014-2015 GS as well but I got scared off because of the open recall with the car stalling in high speeds. I think it’s a fuel pump issue that they haven’t resolved. Did the dealer you bought it from mention any of this? If it wasn’t for that I would’ve bought one already.
Great all around car. Looks great. Easy to maintain. ML sound system is crisp for those with hard of hearing. Heated and cooled seats. Love the thigh extensions on the drivers seat.
Kevin, you're unique style is informative and convincing! My 1997 Camry V6 has 411,000 miles and runs great! I can validate your positive comments on the Lexus and Toyota V6. It's a great engine! Mine is the predecessor to the 350L. Your reviews are making me want to purchase a V6 Lexus RX350 when my Camry finally wears out. I'm thinking I'll get 500,000 miles - same transmission, same engine, same AC. I'm considering hybrids like the 4 Cylinder Venza, but the durability of the Lexus/Toyota V6 engine is like a siren calling. Even with 411,000, my Camry is not a "rattle-box tin can." Keep up the good work! I always look forward to your reviews.
Thanks so much really humbled to hear that and yea Toyota Lexus V6s are phenomenal but you took it to another level lol knocking on half a million miles well done sir
Recently, when I was driving a rental M4(competition) and my own GSF(Ohlins DFV), I was very surprised at how competent this very old Camry ahead of me was on curvy roads. I think you definitely deserve an even better car like Lexus since you keep your Toyota THAT LONG!!! (For that long I think even my GSF is CHEAP...) In addition, Toyota/Lexus needs more business to build these wonderful cars continuously!!!
Awesome review man. I had my sights set on a new G37 Sport back in 2012 when I was car shopping. I stumbled on a loaded CPO GS 350 F-Sport for the same price and decided to test drive it. 10 years and 135k miles later, I still love it to death. Honestly one of the best all around cars on the road to this day. The ML audio has me spoiled too. No other car I’ve sat in has compared IMO.
My 2014 AWD GS-350 Tech package, is the nicest car ever! Test drove them all before buying and 9 years later is still awesome. I laugh at people with brand new junk telling me all about the “new” tech. In their cars. Yup have that is my 2014 😳, its not new lol
I picked up this exact vehicle/color December 2019 with 98k miles, as secondary car to my 1998 Lexus es 300, with 283k miles that just won't die lol. I'm 14 months in with 103k miles without any buyer's remorse whatsoever. It's a really fun car. Michigan roads are the worst. The only criticism I have is the noises from the roof windows etc. Fantastic video...
Nice 2013-2015 is the best years for the GS. They ruined the 2016 and up to satisfy "emissions" which is why I didn't like the 2016 F sport so its good you got a 2014
Technically you can still get a new one. We bought a 2020 in December. We love the GS...well Lexus period. We've had a 2013, 2016, now 2020 GS. We've also had 4 RXs. We always say you just put gas in it, change the oil, and go. Zero problems. I wish Lexus had not neglected the car, but since they won't make it anymore, our next will be LS for retirement. I really liked your review by the way.
Yea 2020 is going to be the last year. They may replace it with something else tho. Wow you guys have a lot of experience with Lexus cars haha that is awesome
Haha I understand my friend man GS F is a beast LS460 is a good in between since it still has a V8 but GS 350 will give you better gas mileage. All of them are awesome haha
I have a black exterior/red interior '18 GS 350 F Sport and have loved every second of ownership! It is such a joy to drive and is definitely a looker to many on the road. It's awesome to see it at 250,000 miles; a definite example of Toyota/Lexus reliabilty and quality!
Great review, Kevin. I was initially looking for an LS460 but those are hard to come by and when they do, they're gone so fast. So now I'm looking for a 2013 GS 350 RWD - how does it do in the snow/ice? Also - mallu? Lol.
Haha yea I am and appreciate it my friend. We don't get much snow out here in NC but I'm confident an AWD GS can handle just about anything. I know a guy with a RWD IS F and he's in Canada, all he did was out snow tires on his car and he gets through snow fine. Thanks again for stopping by
I have this same exact model with 72k miles on it.. And you couldn’t pay me to buy an ES.. Although, the ES is a great car, I just can’t process why they would choose to discontinue the GS and keep the ES alive.. When I think of a Lexus, the 1st model that comes to mind is the GS350 🤔💭...
I believe the latest ES generation is closing the gap which GS has left after being discontinued. ES got roomier and more powerful, we only need a V8 version to truly close that gap.
I have the 1999 RX330 with 300k miles...I have been waiting for it to quit on me for years...no chance of that. I plan to buy the RX350 at the end of this year and keep my baby!
Perfect video, uploaded in 2020 and the one I’m looking at doesn’t even have near the same miles as this one so I’m excited to know how long it’ll last.
@@usaclaimsthemoon4198 I've owned my 2013 GS 350 all wheel drive for 9 months couldn't be happier I'm 68 years old and have had numerous vehicles some good some bad this by far is the best vehicle I've ever owned if you purchase a GS 350 you will not be sorry
Excellent review sir. That’s the most mileage I’ve seen for a modern GS 350, good to know it’s holding up strong! I got a 2015 GS 350 CPO 44K miles in March and it’s amazing! You are right the 8speed does react slower than a 6speed would, but to combat that you can shift to Sport Mode :]
Humbled my friend! And that is beautiful such a smart purchase and you got plenty of life left in it haha. I find the 2013-2015 GS to be superior to the 2016 and up. Enjoy that beautiful ride sir!
I just bought the GS 350 2015 with 23k miles. COVID had this car parked in a garage when the owner traded it in. Got CPO from Lexus and it’s my second one to own. I would not have bought my car new, but used it’s a steal. Love love love my car. This review by the way is great.
Got the 2013 Luxury Package (which adds Sports+ mode Adaptive Variable Suspension) in Nebula Grey with the Mark Levinson sound system (very rare to find both) at 69k miles and I think shes a keeper. Rides like a dream and has more than enough power when you need it.
Nice review! My area does not have a lot of GS350s but I recently bought a 2016 GS350 with 26k miles! I had to drive 1 hour away to get the car. So far its very very good! I still have long ways to go.

Thank you for the review. I am a owner of a 2013 Lexus GS 350 AWD, white with black interior. I am very pleased to see that this car has held up, even at 240,000 miles. I absolutely love my car. I used to own a Cadillac STS V8 before this and there is no comparison. This car is sharper, precise, and accelerates effortlessly compared to the Cadillac I used to own that was a tank and generated a lot of heat from the engine compartment. The interior of the Lexus GS is a very nice place to be. When you arrive at your destination, you find yourself not really wanting to step outside of the car. 😀
One thing I will mention though, my GS DOES have double pane glass on all four car door windows. I confirmed before writing this. In any way, I have no regrets.
I holla.
Beautiful ride my friend yea such an amazing car for sure and very nice driving dynamics. I noticed the glass was pretty thick, like on the LC it doesn't have that indent in the glass but I noticed it was very thick so I'm assuming it was the same for the GS. Thanks again for stopping by
@@MrMustangrick 2013 to 2015 models do. Mine does, and you are excused. Exhaust Sports Auto even responded to me and explained that he noticed the glass on the GS is pretty thick. The term used is not dual pane but Acoustic Windows. Cheers!
MrMustangrick They do have it on US models as well. It’s also available for you to order on Lexus Parts online...
And it’s not only available for the GS, it’s also available for the ES 350 as well...
Do you have an opinion on the RC 350 base model of around the same age? I've not owned one yet, but I'm assuming it'll be roughly the same quality as an ES or GS.
Lexus today is what Mercedes Benz once was in terms of durability and quality.
I agree, Mercedes used to make long lasting cars
Perfectly said 😎
Lexus is always high in durability and reliability since it surfaced in 1990.
Mercedes and bmw were never what lexus has been.
Oh how the mighty have fallen.

Nice! I’m have a 2013 GS 350 that I plan on giving to my son. He’s 4 at the moment. Every time I load him up in the car I say “This car is going to be yours in the future!” 😂
Great realistic review. My 2013 GS is creeping up on 100k miles 4 years later yet feels and drives like it has lights years left to give. The response is still amazing, a solid all season car that’s fun to drive even in harsh MN winters. Lexus reliability remains second to none. Here’s to many more miles.

Just bought a 2013 GS 350, with 120k miles, from a Mercedes dealership a few months ago. Paid $14.2k cash for it and I feel like I stole it. Feel bad for the guy who traded it in for a new Mercedes. He won't understand his mistake for a couple years. Scotty Kilmer lead me there. You made me appreciate my decision. Nice vid!
Massive congrats!
Wow what an insane deal! I just bought one for $17.5k with 105k on the dash.
I’ll actually be in the market pretty soon. I’m most definitely looking at the GS. I was hesitant about one being over 60K miles, but now I most definitely feel more at ease about buying one with high Mileage.
Do you have the maintenance record? Is it well maintained?
I just bought a 2013 gs350 f sport for 18k car prices are high at the moment
300hp in a sedan is the sweet spot for daily driving IMO. The lexus 3.5L V6 is such an amazing engine, probably why so many cars in their lineup have it as an option.
Correct my friend 300-400 hp is perfect for street driving, enough to feel effortless and to have fun but not enough to get into ridiculous trouble or loose it
Man I love how you review cars, you talk about the actual car and not what you want it to be while pointing out flaws that can be improved on.
Thanks so much Jake, that really means a lot to me. Yes I try my best to give you guys the realist and most practical advise as I never got that personally when I was watching car reviews. I'm humbled you find value with it, thank you for stopping by
I have a 2015 GS 350 base, and it is without a doubt the best car I have ever owned, and I have owned many at 54 years old! Power, luxury, smooth ride, and ultimately reliable!
Your comment about the 2GR V6 engine is spot on - it's smooth, and delivers power consistently and effortlessly. It isn't a turbo 6, so there isn't that rush of torque at low rpm, but keeping this engine revved up is part of the fun. It sounds amazing when it's pushed, you're treated to wave after wave of naturally aspirated V6 snarls as the transmission shifts. It absolutely has more than enough power for street driving.
It's not some bespoke engine that was hand assembled by one person. It's a mass produced Toyota V6 that exists across the entire Toyota/Lexus lineup. It was designed for hundreds of thousands of miles of service life, it is overbuilt and understressed and literally requires no maintenance other than oil changes. The evidence is right there in front of you, the car is 250k miles (400000 km!) and still runs like a dream.
Correct my friend and I am glad you appreciate it.
DavidRC is this the fe or fks ?
Pretty sure it's the 2GR-FSE

This still has water pum issues, piston knock and valve cover recalls that requires engine out jobs. Stop talking nonsense about no mainrenance.
Nice work. Breath of fresh air from all the super car nonsense most people can't afford
Appreciate that sir yes I definitely try to make pragmatic content as much as possible!
Rattles are easily fixed on a Lexus by removing trim and fitting felt tape and or new clips, as the basic trim and build is so solid.
Good tip my friend
@@MeynMotorGroup Doesn't work so well on other brands as the basic trim and the assembly is more flimsy, which means you can never fully resolve the creaking.
Not so with Lexus! Great review by the way. 👍
Ohh another solid tip thank you for that my friend viewers like you are an asset to the community and thanks so much!
Teflon tape works too.
These older Lexus cars are great. If you can follow a Chris Fix video, you'll have reliable, comfortable transportation for as long as you want to keep the car.
A friend has this car at about 300,000 miles, mostly highway. If i didnt look at the dash I would have thought he bought this car less than a year ago. I felt no rattles in the car each time i drove it, i felt more bumps in the two g80s i drove compared to this. This will be my next car. I still cant believe this car is from 2013 for what it offers
That is awesome yea you will be happy with it for sure
Was your friends gs a 2007 with 300k miles on it
Just bought one a couple hours ago. Starfire pearl white with tan/brown interior with 55.9K miles. I know this car will last for many years to come :)
Massive congrats my friend phenomenal choice
Oh my gosh geez, I too just took a Starfire Pearl White w/tan & brown leather interior out just the other day for a test drive. A 2015 350 GS w/44,000 miles. I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT. Drove like a dream. I can't get it off my mind. I want it! I know I'm going 2 end up going back to get it. Lol
Happy Motoring in your Lexus. Enjoy & Be Safe 👍🏻
And yes its AWD,
18 way lumbar seats so comfortable. It has everything going ( so I guess it's the luxury pkg ) & it looks brand new lol. No accidents or problems of any kind was had by previous owners, I will be the 3rd owner.
Philly Stinson pretty much same here. I’m the 3rd owner. Previous owners took care of it very well. I’m in love with the car so far and it’s surprisingly fast, especially since it’s a big car and is AWD which puts it right under 4,000 lbs. This is coming from someone who’s driven 400+ hp V8’s. The starfire pearl is so beautiful in the sun too. And it’s a Lexus, they last forever with simple maintenance! Lol best of luck to you and your decision
How much did you pay?
I love these reviews on cars after 100k I appreciate it and your hard work keep them coming
Hey thanks again my friend just happy I can provide value and I'm humbled you appreciate the reviews brother!
I just bought a 2013 GS 350 with 120,000 back in June. I've had it for 2 months now and I love. I find myself driving on the back roads after work instead of racing home. The car feels and drives like a wet dream that you don't wake up from.
Have you had any problems so far? I'm really looking into one of these for my next car. I know a lexus should be reliable but possibly expensive to fix if something goes wrong.
Great words on how it feels , I'm buying one for sure
@@joeyalteri8800 Hey If you alternate between the dealership and two trusted side certified mechanics you'll cut your cost on maintenance
Just purchased the same model from a Kia dealership lol - $15k at 89K miles in GA. Single Owner, no accidents. Drives soooo smooth and can easily drive another 10 years. Love the review, thank you.
I love your reviews man! You're so chill and I love how you always find something positive to talk about in every car you review :)
Thank you so much my friend, really appreciate that!
I wish more RUclipsrs did reviews like this to show how well cars have aged!
Yea when I was younger I really wanted to see some good used car reviews but not many people cover these vehicles happy you enjoy them!

@@legoegoman789 someones mad his mercedes broke
I appreciate videos like these because the majority of online (& offline) reviewers fail to really address the longevity of a vehicle in terms of reliability and quality. I honestly feel that a car like the one reviewed here is hardcore testimonial of the reliability/quality of the Lexus brand than a brand new 2023 Mercedes Benz AMG. Please keep reviewing high mileage cars as the average time that American consumers hold onto vehicles (i.e. for new vehicles - 6 years; for used vehicles - 4 years) is significant for the majority of buyers including people like me who could afford any car I like. But, value is everything to me. One's car breaking down in the middle of the highway can be life threatening and the car manufacturer that allows me to go unscathed and come home each night has my loyalty as a current and future buyer,
Ravi Peiris M.D.
Getting my first Lexus GS tomorrow. I know I’ve got a winner and I can’t wait to enjoy what I think is going to be a memorable ownership experience.
You put smile on my face when I see a review that looks like my car! Well done and so good to see this review. The GS350 is a great car with a good v6 sound. Lovely to drive of course!
Yes! Haha loved your ride Nick beautiful ride in white GS is such a good looking ride solid too. Thanks again for watching!
@@MeynMotorGroup pleasure Kevin!
Great review showcasing the reliability and unrivalled build quality of this great brand. 250k miles and pulls like it still only has the delivery mileage on it, superb
Right? It's crazy it pulls and drives like a new car super impressed and thanks so much my friend for stopping by
We have a GS in our family with 300k+ miles. Runs like a champ. Also have a ES with 200+ miles and a brand new UX200.
These are phenomenal cars.
Have you had any major or minor repairs that were a small fortune to fix? The reason I ask is because I want to buy one and I know even Lexus eventually brakes. So if I wanna keep mine for a long time will the cost of repairing it run me to another Lexus or Toyota?
@@pushhard2 Good question.s Im waiting for answer
I've owned close to 50 cars and my GS350 F-Sport is hands-down the best car I have owned. Just turned 112K on the clock (40K in the last 10 months) and it still looks, runs and smells like a new car. Perfection.
That's awesome
Simply one of the best vehicles Lexus ever built . It’s pricing killed it. It’s apples to oranges when comparing it to the ES. Just close the doors on both while looking and listening . I am on my third . 2015, 18 and I was lucky enough to locate one of the 215, 2020 GS F sport Blacklines.
Totally point on with the transmission. More isn’t better . It’ got confused with 8. I am in NY and in my travels I haven’t seen another Blackline yet . That makes me smile . But a bigger smile on how well built these cars are. Real keeper
Great review on an older model which still seems new.
Nice find!
Thanks so much my friend, and you're crushing it bro keep it up 👍
Recently purchased a 2013 GS 350 with 64k. I plan on keeping the car until it falls apart and the best part is that I know it won’t for many many years
Congrats!

@@narutolol3199 real good, man. I’m at about 97k miles right now and have had no mechanical issues after routine maintenance. The only real defect I had to deal with on the car was when an A/C valve or something related got clogged, and it leaked some water into the passenger footwell. That was a couple hundred bucks to get fixed, but it was pretty minor overall. Other than that it’s been a hassle free experience
I just bought a 2013 GS 350 with 56,000 miles, one owner, one dealership throughout life of the car. Great find. I targeted the vehicle shortly after watching this video, so you basically led me to my car. Thank you for the in depth video.

The 4th gen (2013+) is the greatest AWD sedan ever made.
Love your videos man. Just bought myself a 2014 GS350 yesterday thanks to your vids. 100k miles and 1 owner. Love the car so far 🙂
How much did you pay?
I bought a 2015 GS about 6 months ago with 40k miles, it currently has 47k and so far have had no issues, very smooth and comfy, power is nice but I feel like it should be a little faster than it is... THE SOUND is what attracts me the most to it, the car sounds great. Girls love the car too... highly recommended. I work at Lexus so maintenance is very inexpensive for me.
Nice! That's how you do it my friend great choice
I’m glad it can lower blood pressure that makes me want one great review
These things are bulletproof man. Such a good a car
For sure!
this used review is so much more valuable than some new one from 9 years ago, i feel like this should be behind a ConsumerReports paywall! thanks for making this!
Haha glad you enjoyed
Glad you gave the GS another chance, I've got a '13 GS 350 F sport. Awesome car
Yea man another subscriber explained to me perfectly why I didn't like the 2016 model because they not only put an 8 speed in the later models, they also lowered the torque or something apparently so it felt like a dog. So actually the 2013-2015 cars are superior and Im glad you got one my friend enjoy it!
@@MeynMotorGroup you think the 13-15 is more torquey than my 08 gs350?
This video is the reason i got my 2013 gs350 non f sport with 75k miles and in love with it thanks bro !
That's great to hear! Also mate, I have a few reviews on the GS on my channel, feel free to check them out if you're interested 😄
Bought the same thing as you +5k miles thanks to this video as well. Best sedan ever made
Nice review bro! Last year I got a gs350 sport with 184k miles for under 10k, still runs and looks new.
Prior I had an 06 gs300 awd with 370k and gave it to my brother who still drives it to this day. When it comes to Lexus miles doesn’t matter.
Oh wow that is awesome yea these cars really do last lol. Thanks again brother for stopping by
It’s been a year do you still have your gs350???
Also wondering if person still has their gs350
@@consciousawakening4799 still got it, I posted a video on how to program Lexus keys on my channel I show my car in it if interested
Aren't these unreliable? I heard they blow head gaskets and get carbon buildup and transmission solenoid issues
Bought a 17 year old Lexus RX330 AWD, 22,500 miles on it! Put a back back up cam with Waze in it. Powder coated the rims black. Dash cam and changed belts and hoses. Put snows on it and it’s a rocket ship. Saves my new car and it’s real comfortable…like new!
The 2013 GS350 you're in is still really fresh and solid! My 2001 ES just casually turned 344,000k.. can probably take on another decade! If I keep it beyond 25+yrs, will have to recondition or replace the front tan seat surfaces
Wow that is awesome haha yea Lexus ages really well
You cheap frugal smart bastard 😂
Already knew my '13 GS trey-50 'Base' was a keeper the moment I copped it.. This honest review just solidified the fact.. Only @ 93k on the clock as of right now & looking forward to hitting that 250+k.. Appreciate you for this 1st-hand review..
Yea definitely a Keeper my friend and let me know when you reach that 250k mark! Thanks again for your support and for watching the review
@@MeynMotorGroup Sounds like a plan..
Lexus/toyota never disappoint when it comes to reliability. I cant remember ever seeing a review of a 250k bmw or merc. My 318i at 44k miles was falling apart; suspension components, body and numerous engine issues. Lexus is the best made cars, period. This engine has been in IS/GS since 2007. I love the GS. Wanna get a ‘17 GS-f maybe in a year or so..when the price comes down a bit. Your LC is awesome but I think the 2020 GS f would’ve suited you more.
Yea Lexus is great they def never disappoint
If anything that 17 GS f is just gonna increase in price. They're not making them anymore, supply and demand, get in while you can
Sorry but 250k miles Mercedes are EVERYWHERE what are you talking about? Any 1990s to early 2000s Diesel or V6 Mercedes with 400k miles is just Common.
Want a reliable well built car buy an old Benz. No Lexus come close to that reliability and build quality in the interior department. As a Lexus JZS160 owner.
Just bought a 2013 in the exact same color with 82,000 miles for 16 and I love it.
I love mg 2007 GS 350. It has 135,000 miles. My goal is to keep beyond 250,000. I hope it gets there. I take it to Lexus for all its service and maintenance. Its the most reliable car.
Look I'm so glad I didn't let the fact that the one I purchased today had 108K Miles on it. The dealer told me to think twice about buying a BMW 4 series just because it was only 72K Miles on it cause he said the Lexus is still a safer bet when it comes to reliability. I'm so glad the car is built to last and I hope mines last just as long.
i actually use to own a 2013 Lexus GS350 F sport. Loved it cool to see that these cars can stack miles. I put on roughly 45,000 miles on it in the two years i owned it bought it with around 35-40k miles. Never had a single issue with it. Great daily driver! Ive seen your video on the 2016 F sport and if im going to be honest its a bit slower than pre refresh models due to being much lighter. I recommend that car to anyone that wants this car. I actually miss mine a lot been trying to find it in hopes to buy it back but that's a long shot. only thing I would change is probably change the open diff out for an LSD. would make the car from driving perspective almost perfect!
That is awesome my friend yea such an awesome ride and you are correct the first few model years like 2013-2015 is the best years because they later went to the 8 speed and made the torque curve worse which is why the 2016 MY i drove felt so sluggish. These early model cars are a great find thanks again for sharing your experience!
Have a 2015 GS350 F-Sport in pure white that was purchased used back in the beginning of the year.
I've driven the regular GS350 and I love the extras in the F-Sport. The 18-way seats with thigh and lumbar support are great for long drives too.
The Mark Levinson sound system also makes all types of music sound amazing.
Here's to another 10 years with this amazing car. Loved your review!
This guy is like a Lexus, very relaxing to watch
Haha I'm humbled by that that is a first though 😅 thank you for stopping by my friend
I just bought a 2015 GS350 AWD with only 43k miles and a/c seats. It's like brand new. The car is super quiet and keeps me nice and cool, including the a/c seating. Summer is in full swing here in south Florida so that's saying something. I think everything you said is right on point. I only wish I had the lighter RWD version since it does not snow here, but these cars are hard to find especially for the price I paid.
I sort of cringe when people compare any Lexus to a Hyundai. Lol. Doubtful you'd get this mileage out of a Hyundai & if you did it's still no Lexus. Or Toyota for that matter. Fantastic review. Superb car

I had my mind hell bent set on purchasing an Infiniti Q50 Hybrid. Took one out for a drive, and slept on it. Today I travelled 400 kilometers to take a GS 350 out for a drive, and fell in love with it. I am now a proud owner of a star fire pearl GS 350 and I don't think I've been this satisfied in a long time.

I just bought a 2015 GS350 F sport RWD with cabernet colored interior. I think the thing is awesome.
I’ve been looking @ a 2014-2015 GS as well but I got scared off because of the open recall with the car stalling in high speeds. I think it’s a fuel pump issue that they haven’t resolved. Did the dealer you bought it from mention any of this? If it wasn’t for that I would’ve bought one already.
Great all around car. Looks great. Easy to maintain. ML sound system is crisp for those with hard of hearing. Heated and cooled seats. Love the thigh extensions on the drivers seat.

Kevin, you're unique style is informative and convincing! My 1997 Camry V6 has 411,000 miles and runs great! I can validate your positive comments on the Lexus and Toyota V6. It's a great engine! Mine is the predecessor to the 350L. Your reviews are making me want to purchase a V6 Lexus RX350 when my Camry finally wears out. I'm thinking I'll get 500,000 miles - same transmission, same engine, same AC. I'm considering hybrids like the 4 Cylinder Venza, but the durability of the Lexus/Toyota V6 engine is like a siren calling. Even with 411,000, my Camry is not a "rattle-box tin can." Keep up the good work! I always look forward to your reviews.
Thanks so much really humbled to hear that and yea Toyota Lexus V6s are phenomenal but you took it to another level lol knocking on half a million miles well done sir
Recently, when I was driving a rental M4(competition) and my own GSF(Ohlins DFV), I was very surprised at how competent this very old Camry ahead of me was on curvy roads. I think you definitely deserve an even better car like Lexus since you keep your Toyota THAT LONG!!! (For that long I think even my GSF is CHEAP...) In addition, Toyota/Lexus needs more business to build these wonderful cars continuously!!!
Damn over 400k?! Lol Nice. Did you buy it used or brand new? Hopefully you can get another 400k out of it. 😂👍✊
That 1mzfe is beast. I had an avalon, I use to tow all kinda stuff with it. That thing ran like a tank.

Nice 2013-2015 is the best years for the GS. They ruined the 2016 and up to satisfy "emissions" which is why I didn't like the 2016 F sport so its good you got a 2014
Technically you can still get a new one. We bought a 2020 in December. We love the GS...well Lexus period. We've had a 2013, 2016, now 2020 GS. We've also had 4 RXs. We always say you just put gas in it, change the oil, and go. Zero problems. I wish Lexus had not neglected the car, but since they won't make it anymore, our next will be LS for retirement.

My 16 Lexus GS450H at 150000 with no issues 🤙these are solid/durable cars
That is awesome and yea these things really are solid. Thanks again for stopping by!
I have a black exterior/red interior '18 GS 350 F Sport and have loved every second of ownership! It is such a joy to drive and is definitely a looker to many on the road. It's awesome to see it at 250,000 miles; a definite example of Toyota/Lexus reliabilty and quality!
That's beautiful awesome car and yes they really do age amazing
Still got it?
Nice! Do you still have it? Update on the ownership? Im considering the same car with 35k miles for $37k
Great review, Kevin. I was initially looking for an LS460 but those are hard to come by and when they do, they're gone so fast. So now I'm looking for a 2013 GS 350 RWD - how does it do in the snow/ice?
Also - mallu? Lol.
Haha yea I am and appreciate it my friend. We don't get much snow out here in NC but I'm confident an AWD GS can handle just about anything. I know a guy with a RWD IS F and he's in Canada, all he did was out snow tires on his car and he gets through snow fine. Thanks again for stopping by
Awesome review. This car is so underrated.
I have this same exact model with 72k miles on it.. And you couldn’t pay me to buy an ES.. Although, the ES is a great car, I just can’t process why they would choose to discontinue the GS and keep the ES alive.. When I think of a Lexus, the 1st model that comes to mind is the GS350 🤔💭...
I believe the latest ES generation is closing the gap which GS has left after being discontinued. ES got roomier and more powerful, we only need a V8 version to truly close that gap.
I have the 1999 RX330 with 300k miles...I have been waiting for it to quit on me for years...no chance of that. I plan to buy the RX350 at the end of this year and keep my baby!
Yea definitely no need to get rid of it lol still going strong. The new RX 350 is amazing
Do BMWs have signals?
Hahahahahahah 😆 yea the way some of them drive you would wonder right lol
Most of the signals are dedicated to repair lights in the dash.
So original I'm still perplexed as to why the toyota whorees haven't adopted and accepted BMW yet hell Toyota uses their drivetrains now
Perfect video, uploaded in 2020 and the one I’m looking at doesn’t even have near the same miles as this one so I’m excited to know how long it’ll last.
The GS is a wee bit too big for me but I’m sure it has another 250K miles to go. These cars are tanks (RIP)!
IS is a good size too
As a Miata owner, the IS is too large...but as a new dad, the IS doesn’t fit a rear facing car seat in the back so now I’m looking at GS reviews lol
@@usaclaimsthemoon4198 I've owned my 2013 GS 350 all wheel drive for 9 months couldn't be happier I'm 68 years old and have had numerous vehicles some good some bad this by far is the best vehicle I've ever owned if you purchase a GS 350 you will not be sorry
Ahh man i love Lexus. These things go for eternity.
"Such a great job lowering my blood pressure" 😂😂😂😂
Lexus...Recommended by medical professionals
Lolol
I don't know how the GS and ES can look so similar but be so different looking. Love the look of the GS.
Excellent review sir. That’s the most mileage I’ve seen for a modern GS 350, good to know it’s holding up strong! I got a 2015 GS 350 CPO 44K miles in March and it’s amazing! You are right the 8speed does react slower than a 6speed would, but to combat that you can shift to Sport Mode :]
Humbled my friend! And that is beautiful such a smart purchase and you got plenty of life left in it haha. I find the 2013-2015 GS to be superior to the 2016 and up. Enjoy that beautiful ride sir!
I just bought the GS 350 2015 with 23k miles. COVID had this car parked in a garage when the owner traded it in. Got CPO from Lexus and it’s my second one to own. I would not have bought my car new, but used it’s a steal. Love love love my car. This review by the way is great.
Got the 2013 Luxury Package (which adds Sports+ mode Adaptive Variable Suspension) in Nebula Grey with the Mark Levinson sound system (very rare to find both) at 69k miles and I think shes a keeper. Rides like a dream and has more than enough power when you need it.
Massive congrats!
Nice review! My area does not have a lot of GS350s but I recently bought a 2016 GS350 with 26k miles! I had to drive 1 hour away to get the car. So far its very very good! I still have long ways to go.
Massive congrats my friend good for you enjoy that ride!
How much u paid?
