An awesome bargain. in the used luxury sedan market, the Lexus LS430 is arguably the best sedan made for its time. Here is my take on the (UCF 30) LS430. These cars are known for their excellent reliability and build quality, you won't be disappointed by this car.
Follow me on Instagram - @kjpantano
The CEO of Ford bought one when they first came out (LS430). He said it was the nicest sedan he had ever driven.
Feel like your on a boat on the highway, cruise controlled
Havd u seen the new Land Cruisers tho?! Omggg fun
He could have learned a thing or two.
@@mackfar27 all the major american car companies have the means to produce cars of this quality; that isnt the issue. knowledge and skill isnt the issue.
@@MacLaw3084 yep
It's so refreshing to see the younger generation "get it"...lol Excellent video!
I own an 04 ls430 black on black with sport tuned suspension option. I really love this car. The attention to detail is incredible. I am a professional mechanic and have been able to drive almost every car out there. Nothing compares to the ls430 not even the ls460. The peace, quiet, and comfort is unmatched. And the resale value has gone up in the past year that I have owned her. Love this car.
Aren’t repairs expensive?
@@goldengirls0125 it's made by Toyota so no more than say a tundra. But they are very dependable.
Why would it be better than the ls460
Im I the only one who's in love with this car?!
No
Yes
No, got my eye on one. It's majestic😍
say that in the clublexus forum
I just want to be sure i can put a supercharger on one for less than 6k.
I just bought a 2004 with 150,000 miles on it. Spent the extra $1,200 to replace the timing belt. I still have some suspension bushings to replace, however, it is 16 years old. This is the best car I will ever own. Everything works. So smooth, and the V8 kicks ass. I love it !
Tony Tad is that about what it costs to have the timing belt done? I need mine replaced and have been dreading the cost. But 1200 isn’t bad
@@mothboyskater3793 If you get it done at an independent mechanic with a good reputation, not at a franchise shop like pep boys, then that is what you would expect in price. It should be done every 90,000 miles.
Tony Tad good to know. Yeah I’m about 4K away from the change. It’s been done once at 94 k.
Is there anything to be a main concern with the car i’m going to buy one in the next week just worried at going into the unknown.
@@JMF924 what kind of mileage? If it’s been well maintained, I’d do it without hesitation.
I scored a 2006 LS, and it's the best car I've ever owned. It is effortlessly comfortable and it looks absolutely fantastic in Cypress green and chrome 18"s. This is hands down the best used car that $10k can buy, in balance of extremely build quality/reliability with nearly as many features as a new car. I came from both an E34 5-Series and a W212 E-Class, and my LS430 is superior to both.
Every E65 owner and D3 A8 owner is crying watching this
The ego doesnt let them. They still think they got the cool car! Kinda feel sorry for them
@@Filip333ify What a load of crap, this Lexus has got plenty of issues of its own don't even get me started. Window malfunctions/regulators, control arm bushings go bad, terrible shock absorbers/suspension issues. Valve cover gaskets begin to leak at over 100K miles especially in warm dry climates no different than any German brand. VSC/Check engine lights up, the head unit keeps malfunctioning which keeps you from controlling the radio/climate control buttons with an error message (internal system not connected). The Mark Levinson audio system is garbage which includes the amplifier that doesn't last very long and costs over $1400 to replace. (cheapest to fix is $500) The list goes on and on. .Saying "its the best car ever built" is a vast overstatement. Its extremely overrated to say the least!
@@nicholasscirollio913 are you defending you BMW?
I own a 2005 LS430! Its been giving me nothing but problems for the last 3yrs no different than a bmw same endless moneypit, heck i owned a 2004 Mercedes S430 for 5yrs till 150k miles and No problems besides regular service. Nothing what i have been experiencing with the LS430, (it barely has 150k) i was sold on the idea of how its "the most reliable car ever". What a crock of overrated bullshit".
@@nicholasscirollio913 perhaps you chose the wrong car and wrong mechanic.
Currently drive a 2011 LS 460 Sport Edition. I am going to have a Lexus forever.
@FOOQ GAMING compared to what? Regular dealer service is much cheaper than regular service at Mercedes or BMW. At 105K miles all my electrics work. I’ve had to deal with the stupid control arms (it’s a bad design) but the air suspension hasn’t been replaced yet. Unlike pure GDI engines you don’t need a carbon cleanout at 100K miles (because it still has port injection). The 8 speed Direct Shift transmission from Aisin is dead reliable. Compared to running an S-class it’s cheap. In 56K miles over the last 29 months the total maintenance and repairs (with tires and oil changes and brake pads and a battery of course) have cost me about 3600 USD. What luxury car do you drive that’s cheaper?
@@texlad04 Compared to a Hyundai Equus of the same year Owned mine for 5 years and the only thing I have spent money on is tires and maintenance.....cheap maintenance I change the filters myself...$25.00 for both. Oil changes at the dealer..$70.00 for synthetic
The main issues with the LS460 are the control arms constantly breaking and the very expensive abs system breaking. The air suspension is also very expensive to fix it does break.
I love my LS430 04 even after 282K miles
I had a 2007 IS350, now I have a 2007 GS350 and I can feel how much you love the brand and the car. Very nice and refined video. Hope to see more of it
I've had my 2004 LS430 for 16 years. Other than replacing the alternator & one electric door lock, the car has had nothing but routine maintenance. One of the things I like most about the LS430 is the simplicity -- my 88 year old mother borrowed my car, and in about 2 minutes I was able to explain to her how everything works. If i had to, I could work every control with my eyes closed. You'd never be able to this in a car with a touch screen.
it does have a touch screen too, but your point is still valid
@@southerncharity7928 The base model 2004 LS430 doesn't have a touch screen. If I remember correctly, the screen, which included navigation, added about $4,500 to the price of the car. I was already stretching to buy the Lexus, so I didn't choose one with the screen and navigation. 18 years later, it seems I made the right choice: the 2004 screen is now outdated, but my non-screen car is as good as the day I bought it. 😀
@@kendallfields probably a moot point since you can't change it, but the screen is still supported(updated) by Toyota. The refinement always blows me away compared with google maps/Waze. Example, it doesn't tell you to turn if the turn is obvious. The voice is more pleasant and the tones sound like a Boeing airplane. Pure class. Does your model keep track of maintenance items? Congrats anyway with your purchase.
That's funny..I've also had my 04 for 16 years now and have only needed to replaced my alternator and pass/front door lock mechanism. although I did need to replace 2nd gear solenoid around 200k miles. The car shifted just fine but threw a code permanently. Im at 255k currently and I still love driving it. My wife drives a 2010 460L we've owned 9 years and it's definitely been much more expensive to own. All of the control arms and related linked bushings. Timing chain guides and tensioners. 1 wheel bearing. 1 air strut. I still like the car but its not even on the same level as the ls430. I also still own a 2000 ls400 with 300k that my kids share(and tear up) 04-06 ls430 is a very special car and an unmatched used value for your dollar.
@@southerncharity7928 You actually can change the screen. Not necessarily referring to the cheapo Chinese touch screens but there is a company that just updates the screen. It retains all of the original touch screen interface but is a slightly higher resolution and incorporates more modern bluetooth capabilities. A little pricey at $600-$700 but could be worth it depending on wants and needs. Cant remember the manufacturer off the top of my head but there are a couple KZhead videos demonstrating it.
Thank you for recording this and doing what Doug Demuro has refused to do on this car.
Doug can come review my car anytime he wants!
Nice review and congratulations on the vehicle. I own a 2013 GS, and looking to add this to my collection. You sold me on this. One of the things I keep battling with is the timing belt maintenance but the way it drives, you tend to not even think about it actually.
I have a SC430. Same engine but dropped in a 2 seater hard top convertible. Love it!
@germaine thomas Baltimore. I do not plan on driving the SC in the snow or ice. Had a rear wheel drive car before & tried that...never again. I have a SUV for that.
I added a grom bluetooth in the cd input so use with phone and answer calls on steering wheel but for music too. Put the mid and treble knobs basically to zero and the sub down a bit. The mark Levinson wakes up and sounds fantastic. The car has a coefficiency of drag of .25 which betters almost all super cars. The drive "fun" in it is what I love. It torques very well much faster than a is300 2jz same year. I have tried a is250 2012 and what a yawn. It manoeuvres incredibly well and I love cornering with it especially with 17" 225 55 if I recall. It is a total constant adrenaline rush especially going on the highway. It is incredibly safe and a solid car and has a firewall in the back so no fold seats. Just a monocoque of safe. My doors close by themselves once you closed to first click then it pulls shut in 2002! Black leather interior with 6 fans in the seats and back, w red wine wood trim. I love it for many things you don't or don't mention but I thought you would do a 0-60 because it is surprising and that V8 sounds glorious. For winter the vsc is incredible. I admit though I paid 1200 for mine.
Thanx for the info bro I own a 2006 and never getting rid of her she is a keeper no doubt about it 😎
I like that you told us what you didn’t like. Audio is really important to me and not a lot ppl go over that in the reviews. thank you !
If your really into audio hold out for a non navigation model. Thats what i did, you can put in any double din you want and go from there
I agree it's the most reliable car.
My 03 with 290k miles still runs smooth to the bay everyday most comfortable commuter
WOW an 03 with 290,000 miles and still running smooth,that's really impressive....
MERCEDESBENZS600 BASH Yupp I’ll post more vids on my page soon,. I’m still driving this thing to work
@@gabegarcia7779 NICE....
Barely broken in. Awesome man. Don’t let her go.
Don’t get rid of her bro I’m not getting rid of my 06 LS430 she is a keeper and pampers me every time I drive her so quiet and powerful 😎
Great video bro, I enjoyed it. Just some headers, noticed you were a little nervous and that’s all good. For the sound system it’s actually pretty damn good, look into a cassette converter to aux. then you can begin actually listening to music 😃👍🏽
I remember reading a review where this car completely beat everything else in its class.
I have a 2003 LS 430, pearl white with the very light tan interior. Chrome wheels to boot!!! At this time, it has 112,000 miles on it. It is perfect. The only thing I have replaced is the battery. I have also a 2003 SC430 which I absolutely love. It has 30,000 miles on it. It is gold with the same LS430 color interior. My third car i switched up with a 2014 BMW 335 GT Hatchback. I love it too. Black with the orange and black interior with 30,000 miles on it too. I have to say of my three cars, my favorite car to drive is the LS 430. It’s beautiful. I’ll always keep it! If you can find a beauty, grab it! You’ll never be disappointed!
I have an 06 with black onyx paint and black interior!~. Love this car. It's amazing seeing videos like this still being pumped out. It's a wonderful car.
Thanks Kyle, looking at buying one of these. Very informative, cheers!
Hi Kyle, your car is a beauty indeed, and the white paint makes it seem like a work of art. I have an LS460 and am equally enthusiastic about the big Lexus. Effortless driving and boundless luxury. As for the turning circle, if you ever go to the far east, many big hotels use the LS for chauffeuring clients around so maybe some weight has been given to city manoeuvres. Just think of yourself as a rock star! Thanks for sharing. Stay safe and keep up the good work. 👍🖖😎
I have the JDM version of this car, the 04 Toyota Celsior. I have driven every generation of LS, and this one (LS430) is by far my favourite. The engine and transmission are just buttery smooth, and the car itself just feels more substantial and weighty in a good way. It's great to experience a time gone by when cars were really made to last, not hollowed out pieces of aluminum you can throw out in a few years. The back seat is by far the best place to be in this car, clearly meant for executives to be comfortable back there.
Thanx bro great review 😎
I've had my '98 for 22 yrs. and everything still works. It had its first repair early this year, otherwise just usual wear items...batteries, tires, etc. I never let the dealer touch it and do my own oil changes, brakes, etc.
I got a 08 LS 460 back in May and yes I agree with u I should have gotten this far earlier such a great car
I bought an LS 460 2008, in January 2020, 74K miles,. $13,500, Lexus replaced the interior literally, four-door panel, top dash, and lower because in hot weather these parts feel like melting, I love this car, the most luxury car I ever own, these cars were sold for $70K on the new years. Beautiful machines,
i just bought one of these yesterday to replace my ls400. 2002, base package, 120K, all maintenance up to date. looking forward to picking it up tomorrow!
And this isn't even the UL version which I am stoked to own. Great vid and glad your loving it.
Great video mate, you're refreshingly unannoying for young chap! I'm looking forward to getting either the 400 or the 430 as my first Lexus but I'm dreading the repair bills seeing as here in the UK we only get the top spec UL with the problem screen, problem air ride and problem soft closing door mechanisms and the list goes on!! It's still gonna happen though!
I own a 05 UL package, hands down the best car I’ve driven! I have to slap myself awake when driving in it because it’s sooo smooth and quiet 😆
bought a 2006 a few months ago and love it. took it on a road trip last weekend and got like 26-27mpg on the highway. I decided to get that greenish-gray color, because I have had nothing but black, gray, and white vehicles pretty much my entire life. it looks good in just about every color though. I got the base-ish trim. I wanted the good rims, but did not want the infotainment because I didn't want to deal with the ML stereo and old screen. I assume I will upgrade the head unity and install a backup camera, and then I will have all the tech I need for my daily commute.
Just bought a 2004 with the Green/gray color. Called Cypress Pearl. Gorgeous color,. The LS430 is tops.
I have an 05 ES330 and this video hits the spot when I can't drive. Lexus really killed it with the interiors in this era. I had my eyes on the ES to save some money but I could definitely see myself upgrading once I get a garage. Both amazing cars imo.
Beautiful car, great job,I look forward to owning one soon.
The only thing that ls430 was lacking was outside sporty styling! Thats when the ls460 was amazingly styled but lacked the ls430 great reliability! That ls430 was very nice!
460=ugly
All you need is some jdm toyota Celsior parts
LS 430 body is timeless infact it looks much way better than latest cars.
My father bought a 04 LS new, ran it up to 280k, sold it to my aunt, it now has over 400k and the only thing that’s been replaced on it that’s not a typical wear part was the water pump and they did that preemptively - it hadn’t even failed yet. I remember being mesmerized by the oscillating fans.
love your car, ill be getting my self a ls430 soon, currently working in Pa, im from Texas lol
Just bought a 2001 UL ls430 with 54k miles, it’s mint condition and by far my favorite car I’ve owned, plan on keeping this thing till it doesn’t run anymore
I have an 04 ls430 UL with 130k on the dash. Absolutely love it minus that i have to fix the front wheel bearing/ hub. But other than that, this car was ahead of it's time
Love my 04. This car is timeless
Me too bro never getting rid of mines she is a keeper 😎
I really wish I didn’t dislike the styling of this car....I prize reliability and dependability in a luxury car, and this by all accounts is what the 430 is. That front end is so homely to me though... I’ve had my 2000 LS400 for 10 years, and before that I had a 94. I love the LS400 like no other.
Yeah it's an amazing vehicle that is still unmatched today
Yooo I’m looking into getting one for around 7 ground with full ultra luxury package with brand new seats they are like a brown/tan color I love them hopefully I can get it this’ll be my first car if I get it 😍😍😍
A very nice review I want LS430 even more now I had an IS 250 but needed an estate car and exchanged it for a low miles Saab 95 which felt pretty poor and unrefined till I got used to it, a Lexus spoils you with refinement fit and finish.
I am surprised at the criticism levied at Mark Levinson audio. I have an 05 LS430 and am delighted with the quality of the CD system. Back in the 80s and 90s I had a music studio and did a lot of recording with Nakamichi equipment, which was expensive in those days. Some of those early cassettes and CDs sound better in the car than they did in the studio. (unless my hearing has deteriorated, which it probably has). Love your video, and yes, it is the best built car in my eyes.
Chris Pritchard it’s funny because after I made this video I tried CDs and cassettes and they sound way better than normal radio audio
I own 2 RX's and the Mark Levinson stereo is most definitely an upgrade from the premium audio system from Lexus. A stereo that is professionally designed to accommodate the driver, when no one else is in the vehicle, that's the latest and greatest Gold RX 350 in my drive way. A stereo on wheels. It took me a full year of waiting and searching before I got my new baby - Goldie. I'm laughing my head off every day, as this was the only expensive thing on my bucket list.
Great car. Great review. “I’m a land yacht fanatic”! LOL..,Made me want one. I’m in Texas so hopefully I can find one as nice as yours!
there’s a decent one in houston right now, check it out. its black on black 67k miles, $11k
This is a great car, and an excellent review! You can clearly see that you have obviously done plenty of research by the comments made about this car, To date I wholeheartedly agree this is the BEST car I have EVER owned, and I intend to keep mine until it fades into the sunset or things finally start breaking. It has always been looked after as the ULTRA - (Ultimate Edition) and in my opinion is THE version to go for, It has always started first time, and has been honestly 100% reliable. I enjoyed your summation of this car, please keep reviewing , as they are informative and non-biased if you need confirmation from anyone, - then please use me. Mr P R Coysh MileOak, Portslade Brighton. England.
I got a 2014 lexus LS460L. I'm the second owner. Bought it from the lexus dealer. I love it but would have been fine with one of these.
I owned a '01 and agree it is the finest automobile I have been in!
Just bought a 2005 LS430. It had just one owner and has 98 thousand miles on it. All of the service was verified at a Lexus dealer in my area. The car has one minor problem that won't ever be an issue. It is the Flint (dark gray) with a black interior. I have owned two LS400s in the past and love the brand. So when I saw this listed I bought it quickly. I got it at a little over $9500. What I really love is the very comfortable, quite, and smooth ride. I wouldn't trade it for anything.
Me either bro never getting rid of my 06 LS430 she is a keeper 😎
Same here… running or not it stays in my garage… it has earned the right to be there… wonderful luxury car.
Great video. I,ve always fancied owning a big Lexus. Maybe it will be my next purchase.
Lexus was a wonderful automobile company, until they changed that front bumper in 2014. Smh
I like your honest opinion about the car.
It took me 6 months to find my 2001 LS430 for the price I felt satisfied with, after a little tlc, best decision ever.
Hows the ride quality in your 01????
Amazing. I’ve put 12k miles on it already. I’m completely astonished how from day 1 the ride quality and the car itself has held up so well! Honestly I lost a tire from not aligning it after driving 8k into it but that’s it. I had it aligned and ever since I’ve been driving seamless. As a daily driver, it’s very comforting, quiet, and powerful. The V8 alone does make you faster than 70% of most cars Anyways so it’s got some legs when on PWR mode. 10/10 overall.
Zuea Xxeroa how much did you get it for
Honasty21 Money 1800, 218k miles and it wasn’t the best looking cosmetically but inside was actually nearly flawless aside from cracks on the steering wheel wood and a small line crack on the driver door but it’s very faint. Mine is considered the modern package and i love it. I’m more happy my 430 is running OEM coilovers instead of the air suspension so I saved another 1000 or so on making it brand new if that ever broke. Overall I put about 1000 total with water pump/timing change and tires/brakes. For 3000 total you can find a car like mine but for how cheap I got mine it was worth fixing it and now the 430 has taken care of me
Zuea Xxeroa agreed you did good those things last my radiator lasted til 280k everything else still original I should change em but it runs so buttery smooth don’t wanna fix anything if ain’t broken and that’s how Lexus reliability is
spot on with the audio system. great car though!
I have an 02 RL and I always wanted one of these.. seems like what the RL wants to be
I’ve always enjoyed big cars and V8s since I was 17. And your review is good. Including that ML which is junk. But I’ll take it with the upgraded packages. Very nice classy video.
Nice story and I totally agree. I leased my second LS430 in 2005 and bought the car at the end of the lease. Today it has 137,000 miles and I just replaced the factory timing belt, pulleys, tensioners, serpentine belt, etc. Since I have owned it (except for tires and breaks) I have replaced the front right wheel bearing and front shocks (68,000) and one muffler. About to replace the steering column up and down motor. Crazy. I Love the ride the V8 and the handling.
Great video
Also mine’s got a straight pipe which might seem dumb but the 3uz sounds fantastic
I love my 06 bought it in 2016 with 70k miles and its a blast to drive and have always get compliments. I recently upgraded the gps system to a apple car play and android auto system and its even more fun to have now. Im never selling it. Recently drove from dallas to california and gave no problems the gas sucked but the ride comfort was amazing My wife loved it.
On my third LS. The only car I would ever consider purchasing. Just picked up an ‘02 Ultra Luxury Edition. It’s glorious. Only gripe is that the LS UL air suspension shocks have a life span of about 120k. Then they begin to leak at the seals. Replacement is very expensive.
Do you get a code when they go bad?
No code is produced. You can see that the wheel will sit deeper in the wheel well on the affected shock and the air pump runs more that usual.
@@medicalnegligence I've never noticed my air pump running and have 116k. I did notice a code while using the Techstream software, I'll look into it more, I had the perception it was a pending code as no code appears on the dash. My car is very comfortable, I'll research this more, thank you. Would you recommend I pay the dealer to diagnose it? If they are just going to read the codes, it wouldn't be worthwhile. I am thrifty, but have moeny.
picked mine up in California for 5k clean interior paint just needed a restoration but my bros a detailer and the maintenance was done. it has 213k miles and I have had it for 2 years and has never left me stranded always starts right up and just floats on the road. Best 5k ever spent oh yeah and its a premium 2005 model mica gray gray guts.
I just caught a 03 with 65000 miles on it definitely my favorite car and I own Mercedes and bmw
What an amazing video!
I purchased a white 2004 just like this one. You get in, close the door, and poof! Silence. And as you said, I struggled to stay awake on long trips because it's quiet as a vault and softer than a bed. I had to open the sunroof and blast 90s music just to stay awake. Incredible.
Very nostalgia video man 🙂
Design-wise the LS from the 90s to this model were great. Love the classic boxy design. Not a fan of the current design
I picked up a 2004 with 92K miles and absolutely love it.
@Organic Iverson $8,000
My parents used to have an 06 just like yours. Awesome cars, for sure! About the Mark Levinson...for some reason FM always sounded horrible but with CD it was the best car system I’ve ever heard. Old school, but have you tried popping in a CD?
I’m second to the FM signal on Mark Levnson system. I own a 2006 Lexus SC 430. Love the 6 disk CD player. Rarely listen to FM.
Good review!
Hi Kyle, I own a 2005 LS430 ML. It was a Florida car. Only issue was cracks in steering wheel wood finish. I refinished myself with 10 coats of wipe on poly. You mentioned the smart key not working. A small thing but have you checked the button in the knee-well above your right knee.
Kyle mobbin deep like a Yakuza boss
I had a 2004 white ML version with the chrome wheels. Wish I kept it.
The 123 series merc is also a contender imo. I own and love both.
insanely nice sedan ever built, deserve to keep one for life
Yes - Best sedan ever!
In 2012, i bought a lexus Ls 400 with 172k miles on board for $1100. This car served me for almost four years and i drove it for an additional 45k miles with no issues untill i blew the head as i failed to check the coolant level. Since that day, i miss this ls 400 soo bad, its a true legend.
Wow sorry to hear that bro u should get a LS430 now
1100$? That’s a STEAL! Holy shit lol
Congratulations on your beautiful car. Succinct and comprehensive. Thank you. [ Compare sports car for fun] Research and discuss the drag coefficient of wind resistance of the LS 430 design. The Japanese bullet train windtunnel was utilize to achieve an aerodynamic drag coefficient of .25. Facilitating fuel efficiency and class leading quietness on the highway. Notwithstanding, it’s a large sedan with a tall greenhouse. Recently I have learned about x-ray scanning of the engines for Precision casting inspection on top-of-the-line Lexus engines.
Bought my first official car got an 03 ls430 with 176.5k when I got it rn it’s sitting at 178.2 smoothest sedan I’ve ever been in. Beats any of the cars we’ve had in the family whether they were newer or older. Wanted to buy a car that’d last a long time. I’m glad I chose the LS . Wanna buy a burner to baby her and keep the miles low and have the other one as a build for drifting possibly (maybe an older is300)
Use to drive my parents Altima 2.5s it’s was coo till that engine blew 😂 had the 4 speed auto so the tranny was chillen but blew a gasket and got coolant mixed in the oil. After that experience I couldn’t imagine owning one with a cvt ☠️
Grom audio BT3or V Line should help you out with the oem Levinson system. I have the BT3 in my 05 430.
if you need a chauffeur for a while. im your guy. i do a good impersonation of “The Transporter”. I enjoy driving!
Great video Bro I am looking at a 2003 Lexus LS 430 with 126000miles on it they are asking 7200 for it need some advice good buy or not !!!
Who wrote the piano music? Reminds me of the old Lexus commercials
Reminds me of the Truman Show with Jim Carrey.
Sounds like that Philip Glass crapola.
Ive been amazed what a deal these are. I switched from euro to lex in 2000.. i could could hardly believe i could drive these for 2-300000 miles with hardly any time in shop. Overall ive owned 9 ls430s and 4 ls460s. all with charms,, I just returned to a 04 ls430 with 70k miles ,timing belt , front joints, mirrors rebuilt all done by a little lady in beverly hills. sold my 13 460... nice car but the 430 is sweet country driving ---- enjoy
04 LS UL love mines
I had a 2005 jaguar XJ8 for yrs, I loved it but just wanted something new ...I looked at one of these on several occasions ...I’d only consider a 04-06 ...they are gorgeous ...more so over the following generations ...my only objection was that it’s only avbl in RWD ...I ended up going w/ a Mercedes s class v8 4matic! They look very similar! I’m a Mercedes and jaguar kind of girl ....this Lexus model is the only Lexus I’d ever get!
The radiators are premium oem by Denzo. A Japanese company of course. Only race that kept up with new at 130k and up was a Mercedes coupe, the ones that are turbo-charged
Nice bro your in Pennsylvania and I’m in Philadelphia cool
I have an 01 thats black cherry pearl ... under 75k miles I put nice new rims and tires on her shes is mint
I also have the black cherry pearl that I purchased a year ago with 55k miles. I’ve tried to sell it at least 6x recently and can never follow through...just can’t let go of a perfect car! Yesterday I decided this car is here to stay!!
In love with this bad boy as my daily but my weekend playboy is my 2003 q45.....i will never purchase a brand new car for as long as i cam keep purchasing these years badboys 🤷🏽♂️
Kyle - do you have a vide on warning lights staying on?? seems to be draining battery.
When I'm feeling down, I get in on the 5 and just drive
Huh sounds like a jingle.
Subscribed bro thanx
they are still so expensive in 2020 i am so mad.
$9000 for a $60,000 car is too expensive?
Whay do you enjoy owning better this or the s 55 amg?
I just stole one of these from my coworker. 2002 for $1500. Just over 80k miles. It’s so clean. I stumbled onto this car by chance through a conversation. He said he pushed the PCV valve grommet through the valve cover and didn’t want to mess with it. Turns out the grommet was just torn. Just replace the grommet. Looks like it will need a radiator but what a deal.
Damn man you stole it. Congrats on your buy :)
totally agree.
