The 2002 Lexus GS for buyers
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2002 Lexus GS for sale by us right now. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. For anyone shopping for the 2002 Lexus GS, here are the facts that matter.
What to check on the GS
NHTSA lists no recall campaign for this model year. Owners filed 17 complaints with NHTSA, most often about vehicle speed control, air bags and tires; have those parts checked. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.
Under the hood
Its powertrain is the 3.0L 6-cylinder with rear-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
Its combined rating is 12.4 L/100 km, which means roughly 37 litres for 300 km. At our price setting, it costs about $21.70 to drive 100 km. The EPA estimates US$4,350 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
The GS in everyday use
It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. Its 425 litres of luggage space fit a family's bags for a long weekend.
Who rents the GS
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.
A longer test drive
Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. Try the GS on your commute, then decide. Rent the GS for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one.
What it costs to run
Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $217 at our price setting. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
Picking a year and a trim
If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Within the 2002 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.
