I've had Lexus of Portland detail my GS a number of times. It looks good including the engine and interior although for $248 you're not going to get Q-Tip work, claying, etc.

I have taken it there a few times and I havent noticed any damage. Im pretty **** w/ my car so I look over it before I leave. I have one of the head service guys so he is real easy to deal with. I hear Sewell has good service. I live in Lewisville so Park Place Grapevine is right up the road. I guess it's more of a convenience thing....

oh yeah, thanks for the feedback everyone!
I believed Sewell Lexus' service department has been rated #1 in the nation for many years, even my friends in CA and NY know about it!!! Best of all you can just drop in anytime and have your toy service without appointment, loaner is always available.

BRYANC182 if you decide to visit Sewell Lexus for future service,ask for Mason Kessner (mkessner@SEWELL.com); he is senior service advisor that has been awarded for being the "best customer service advisor" for years. Plus once you are in the system, they will assign a mechanic to service your toy (unlike other service department, he/she would be the only person work on your toy), just like our family doctor!!!


As far for detailing, I would recommend Brian Hare (http://www.detailwerkz.com), I have been using him for years. Brian is a car enthusiastonly, he only use Zaino's product, which means your toy will be detail to perfection. Best of all, he will detail your toy either at your work or home!!!

I disiagree. What you guys are neglecting is the total convienience of the dealership. I get a loaner car and get the hell out. I dont want to sit there and watch some dude cleaning my car for 4 hrs, or have to bother someone to drive me around or pick me up.. The extra 40-50 bucks is worth the convienience imho.

I have used pp lexus plano for a detail a few times. They do good work take out any scratches i can point out i usally pay $130 or so only about 30 higher than a car spot or some place and i get a loaner so its worth it imo...When i get my new is detailed i'll probably take it somewhere else as i have buffer swirls everywhere that need to be taken out and i am not sure lex can do that...
