Lexus Dealership Houston Texas TX

Reader’s Question:

Hello, I know that Lexus already established its name as a car maker to be reckoned with. Silly me, I haven’t really gotten to know what Lexus models are out there for someone like me. I think of myself as someone who likes to live fast. I’d definitely love to zip around Houston, Texas in one. Care to recommend a Lexus model for me?

Lets deal with, “someone who likes to live fast” first. Okay, let’s take it literally at this point. So speed gives you a “high.” And what can Lexus offer to someone like you? I figured, at the least, that you’d probably like to look at what’s under the hood, horses and all. I think a choice from the 2009 Lexus sedans can’t go wrong, but that’s me. We can always check out a sportier coupe. But do check out what I wrote down for you.

Let’s start with Lexus sedan basics. You can choose from the IS, ES, GS and LS models. How do they differ, you ask? Let’s check the horses and count the seconds. For the 2009 IS, you can get about 306 hp from a 3.5 Liter V6 and sprint to 60 miles per hour in about 5.6 seconds. Quick enough, ain’t it? The 2009 ES will give you 272 horses from its 3.5 Liter V6 and will take you to 60 mph in 6.8. The GS and LS, with their powerful V8s, 5.4 seconds to hit 60 mph. Style-wise, I’m going for the IS. I think it’ll be enough to give you that sporty feeling without getting that “I’m driving a fast big box” sensation. Not bad for an entry level sedan, right?

Hope that helped you out there in Houston, Texas.
