Lexus NX 300

My 1st Lexus, come to think of it, my 'dream car' when i started work. Only can afford Vios then so only bought this car 2nd hand directly from Borneo Motors preown cars department when i chanced upon it in Apr22. 1 of the best cars i owned so far :)

This car definitely shines in its ride comfort and cabin refinement. The six-speed automatic provides seamless gear changes. A drive mode select system with Eco , Comfort & Sports settings , which let’S me adjust how eagerly the engine and gearbox respond to my right foot. A turbocharged 2.0-litre petrol , fitted with a six-speed automatic gearbox rather than the CVT of the hybrid , is a pricey , sports-oriented range-topper to this distinctive looking four-wheeled drive SUV.

The large signature Lexus spindle grill design that gives the car an aggressive road presence.

It comes with a well built interior that is nicely outfitted. The Dual-Zone climate control settings allow the driver and the front passenger to adjust their preferred temperatures. A good added feature is the touch-sensitive dome lights and map light switches , which activate with a gentle touch over the lamp itself. Reclining rear seats will make two adults in the back feel lavishly accommodated. The boot is a respectable size with more than enough room for a small family luggage or the weekly grocery shopping. And a broad square shaped aperture makes loading bulky items pretty easy.

I have never owned a Lexus but when I hear my friends talking about one, it is always about how well crafted, quiet, reliable and comfortable. They hallow it as the pinnacle of Japanese engineering and after test driving the NX200t a couple of days ago, I finally understand why, and boy do I want one.

The RX from yesteryear never really was my cup of tea but with the NX, its hard not to fall in love. The NX being a crossover, looks sharper and more compact. However, if space is your top priority then you'd probably be better off with an RX.
