Thinking of buying the 2000 Lexus GS?

CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2000 Lexus GS; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Here is the 2000 Lexus GS for buyers: fuel use, size, recalls and a test drive that lasts a week.

A buyer's checks

NHTSA lists no recall campaign for this model year. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.

Specs, explained

The engine is the 3.0L 6-cylinder, with rear-wheel drive and a 5-speed automatic. 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.

At 12.4 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 37 litres of fuel. Per 100 km, plan on roughly $21.70. The EPA estimates US$4,350 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

How big it is

As a mid-size car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight. Its 425 litre trunk is enough for a family's bags for a long weekend.

Who the GS suits

It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.

Rent it for a week first

Rent the GS for a week and see how it fits your life. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent the GS first, and buy only if it fits your life.

What it costs to run

At our price setting, 100 km costs about $21.70 in fuel. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.

Choosing the right one

Within the 2000 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.
