Buying the 2010 Lexus GS
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2010 Lexus GS; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. The 2010 Lexus GS for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.
What to check on the GS
Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. There are 3 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. Owners filed 18 complaints with NHTSA, most often about air bags, unknown or other and engine; have those parts checked. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.
The numbers in plain words
The 3.5L 6-cylinder hybrid with rear-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at. It is a hybrid: the battery charges itself as you drive and brake, so there is nothing to plug in. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
By the EPA's combined rating of 10.2 L/100 km, 300 km takes about 31 litres. At our price setting, driving 100 km costs about $15.81, and a 300 km weekend about $47.43. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,550 a year for 15,000 miles.
Inside and out
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. Luggage space is 255 litres, enough for about a large suitcase and a couple of soft bags.
Who the GS suits
It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car. It suits client visits, weddings and special weekends.
Drive it on your own roads
Rent the GS for a week and see how it fits your life. A week with the GS answers more than any brochure. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience.
Running costs
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $158.10 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$3,550 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Choosing the right one
Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.
Your move
Ask us anything about renting before you buy.
