You are right in the fact that the Lexus had a lot of upcoming costs in addition to fuel economy. I had a '96 Lexus ES300, and by 125k miles, the repair bill was 1,5x the value of the vehicle. Stuff like a new steering rack, struts and shocks, leaks, etc.....
So a better drive, lower maintenance costs, and the latest technology. And you get a side benefit of lower fuel consumption. Win win! |

Why even dwell on the MPG. I think when you purchase a high end car you should take into consideration the price of ownership. Can't nickel and dime this great car.

My 08 X5 3.0si is great so far. I get 18MPG on 3000 miles now. I am very happy with it.
