Older Lexus Mileage? - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

Hello, I'm currently looking for an older Lexus to buy as a daily driver. My commute consists of almost all highway miles. I'll looking at the early GS300s, SC300/400s, and if I have to, the ES300. I tried a search but didn't come up with much.

Am I looking at the wrong vehicle for what I need? I mean, they obviously have to be better on fuel mileage than my big gas guzzling truck (that I refuse to get rid of) and I love Lexus, I've wanted one since I young, and would enjoy the luxury.

Any help is appreciated.

SC400 gets better mileage than the SC300, this is true of all Lexus UZ (V8 engines) vs. JZ (I6) engines. LS400 and GS400 gets better mileage than the GS300. An older SC400 should get you 20-21 mpg on the highway. and its so comfortable
