Buying the Right RX 350 For You
Often many car buyer believe that dealers are the only smart way to buy or sell their vehicle. If money isn’t the issue then they are right. However most of us see the purchase of a vehicle as a serious allocation of funds and want to be engaged in the process. That’s when buying used makes most sense. And when it comes to Lexus, it often makes lots of sen$e.
Outstanding Reliability Makes Buying Used a Good Choice
If you were to explore a larger Lexus market then ours (The USA) one would quickly discover many 4 to7 year old RXs selling with 300 to 400,000 MILES. And they sell for pretty decent prices. The outstanding reputation for reliability is why. As the slogan goes “There’s Quality. And Then There’s Lexus.”
Critical Analysis is Important
For many prospective owners of a Lexus examining and analyzing a specific used vehicle is a chore they would just as soon not be involved in. It’s the very reason they’re wanting to buy a Lexus. No issues. No problems. However there are simple ways to go about the process. Ask for the maintenance history. If it’s all at the dealer, have the seller request a service history in summary form from the dealer.
There Are Many Simple Tips and Telltales
Take the vehicle for a test drive. Often one can tell a great deal within a block about the condition of the unit. The Lexus RX 350 has a certain feel to the wheel that can quickly telegraph how it’s been handled. Go into an open parking lot and find yourself sufficient space to do a series of figure 8s. When you do turn it to the extreme right and hold the wheel. Calming accelerate and listen for any noises the vehicle’s drive axles may produce. Don’t hesitate to give the vehicle a bit of throttle when half way in the turn. Repeat the process to the left. Any sounds that resemble marbles clacking means there’s a trans axle issue. Go to our
