Auto loans: the 2009 Lexus LX
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2009 Lexus LX for sale by us right now. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Buying the 2009 Lexus LX is a big decision; here is the information we have.
What to check on the LX
Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. NHTSA lists 3 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed.
The numbers in plain words
The 5.7L 8-cylinder, paired with a 6-speed automatic, drives it. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.
The EPA rates it at 16.8 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 50 litres. A 300 km weekend costs about $88.20 in energy at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$5,850 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Best uses
It suits client visits, weddings and special weekends. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.
Inside and out
Its SUV body gives a high seating position and an easy load height.
A longer test drive
A week with the LX answers more than any brochure. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car.
Choosing the right one
A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.
Running costs
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $294 at our price setting.
Let us know
Ask about renting first, and buy with a clear head.
Rent it for a week before you buy
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 2009 Lexus LX from us first.
