Maybe I'm easy to please.

Maybe I'm easy to please...but I doubt it. I bought this vehicle for my wife, and to be honest I tried driving it every chance I got. The hard top convertible is amazingly quiet, impressively functional (opened & closed in 7 seconds), and just all around amazing. I've never enjoyed driving a convrtible (road noise) until we purchased this vehicle. Great handling with the top up or down. Great product all around. We regret that we traded it in a couple of years ago. Should have kept it.

As Always Lexus Quality and Performance

Lexus is always reliable. Love it but time to move on. This car is in pristine condition and ready for a new owner. No problems, no issues, like new condition.
