I bought a used 2013 Lexus RX350 from this dealer. I am a very picky customer... I lived in Markham, Ontario when I bought my vehicle. After a few months of looking I saw a 2013 RX350 advertised on I am a very picky customer... I lived in Markham, Ontario when I bought my vehicle. After a few months of looking I saw a 2013 RX350 advertised online and then called the dealership; Lexus of London. They passed me onto a salesperson by the name of Rick Watson to answer my questions. Let's just say he answered them so well that I decided to drive about 2 hours to see the car in person. When I arrived to the dealership I felt at ease and comfortable from the minute I sat in Rick's office. I drove the car and decided to buy it. Unfortunately, due to a limited budget and second guessing myself several times I called Rick and looked at several options before picking my car up. I looked at a new vehicle and other used RX's. Repeatingly, Rick was there crunching numbers with me to ensure it all worked within my budget. I am in sales as well and I recall thinking "this poor guy how can he put up with me?" Well he did! Moreso, Rick demonstrated patience and excellent customer service to the end. Here I am months later enjoying my 2013 RX350 (the one I had originally called about) and I am extremely happy! There is a reason I left several dealerships in the GTA and drove for 2 hours to get a vehicle I really wanted. It had a lot to do with the professional sales and service that I receieved. Today as I look back at it months later I have no regrets! Thank you Rick and Lexus of London! More

Easiest, friendliest car shopping experience i have ever had I usually despise car shopping due to the high pressure "buy it now" attitudes a lot of car salespeople show towards customers. They are looking for t I usually despise car shopping due to the high pressure "buy it now" attitudes a lot of car salespeople show towards customers. They are looking for the one time sale instead of building a relationship and treating the customer as a friend instead of a number. My experience at Lexus of London was nothing short of spectacular. It was as pain free as any purchase could be. I dealt with Rick Watson who couldn't have been more accommodating. I wasn't exactly sure what I was looking for but he spent the better part of an afternoon going on multiple test drives with me until I had my mind made up. He answered every question I had and at no point did I feel any sort of pressure to purchase the car right then and there. No matter what make of vehicle i choose for my next car, i will be contacting Rick first to see if they can help me out. Thanks again for the over the top service and follow up More

Shopping for a new vehicle! It was time for a new vehicle! We had narrowed the search down to Lexus,BMW and Audi.

We were warmly welcomed upon entering the showroom and proptly introduced to Rick Watson. Rick was very knowledgeable about the RX350. He spent considerable time showing us all of the features that the vehicle had to offer. He gave us a price for the vehicle in a timely manner. It was a pleasure dealing with Rick, but in the end decided that the Lexus was not the vehicle for us. But if you are in the market for a Lexus I suggest that you give Rick a call, you won't be disappointed. No, we are not related nor did we know Rick, just giving him and the dealership the five star credit that is due them! More
