The 2009 Lexus LX: before you buy

We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2009 Lexus LX 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. Buying the 2009 Lexus LX is a big decision; here is the information we have.

Before you sign for the LX

There are 3 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. Owners filed 4 complaints with NHTSA, most often about seat belts, seats and service brakes; have those parts checked. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.

The figures, translated

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.

It is rated at 16.8 L/100 km combined, so budget about 50 litres for 300 km. Expect about $29.40 per 100 km at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$5,850 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Practical details

Its SUV body gives a high seating position and an easy load height.

Good uses for the LX

Families, skiers and anyone with bulky luggage. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.

Try before you buy

Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide.

The cost of driving it

The EPA estimates US$5,850 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $29.40 in fuel. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.

Year and trim

Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
