Positive Review

"Best Vehicle Made !!"

I have a 2002 LS430 with 60K miles. Not a single problem. I've owned Mercedes (always in the shop), BMW (maintenance nightmare), JAG (just plain junk), AUDI (pretty good car) but none of them compare to the LS430. The cars just DO NOT break down. I also have an LS400 that is an outstanding vehicle.. just not as many goodies as the LS430. If you are considering purchasing an LS430, you will not be disappointed.

KBB please do better

First of all this is a fantastic car. I drives better than most SUV's its just not as high. However, I didn't go through all of that questioning for you to not tell me how much this car is worth. Total waste of my time. I get everything requires money and nobody is worth the support for but going through all of that for you to send me an offer and not the actual amount the car is worth is beyond me. Because nobody will waste my time with those kind of offers when people are purchasing the car online for quadruple the amount. Please do better.

It looks ugly but is good

My son has one of these cars and loves it, I drive a BMW three series from 2021 and that car feels a bit 70 percent like the lexus.

What a pleasure to drive!
Pros

Very refined

Cons

None

This car is everything but nothing. Glides down the road and flies when it has to. Very quiet, smooth, and super reliable. High quality vehicle. You get more than what you pay for with these LS. Over 700,000k and drives like new.

The Lexus LS 430 (Ultra Luxury)
Pros

"Rolls-Royce" Quiet, Powerful Motor, Reliable V8.

Cons

Fuel Economy, Pricy Repairs.

The Lexus LS 430 (Ultra Luxury). The Lexus LS is the pinnacle of Lexus, but does the LS 430 live up to the name? Yes, Yes, and Yes! The LS 430 is the best Lexus model other than the LFA in my opinion because of its timeless but modern exterior. I prefer the LS 430 over the its predecessor the LS 400 as the LS 400 looks very late 80's early 90's and is stuck in that time period, and over its successor the LS 460 2007-2012 which is the pre-facelift model. The LS 460 looks too rounded with no crisp lines like the LS 430. The LS 430's powertrain is to die for as well, its 4.3L 3UZ-FE V8 has a healthy 290 HP and 320 FT⋅LBF and is mated to a silky smooth Toyota/Aisin-Warner A761E 6-Speed Torque Converter Automatic Transmission which powers the rear wheels only. At just under 4,000 LBS the lovely powertrain glides you with firm shifts to 60 MPH in a respectable 6 seconds and the quarter mile in 15.8 seconds @ 105 MPH and will continue to go on to its limited top speed of 155 MPH. The designers knew. their market and the interior shows that, having been designed with inspiration taken from the Imperial Hotel, Four Seasons Hotel, and Ritz Carlton Hotels respectively. The seats in this personal limousine featured inspiration from the first class seats from both British Airways and Japan Airlines. The car was also very aerodynamic sporting a ultra low Cd of 0.25. The reason the LS 430 was so aerodynamic was because it was designed in the same wind tunnel as the Shinkansen or more popularly known as the Bullet Train. It doesn't stop with just numbers move on into the interior of the LS 430 and you're greeted with a Liquid Crystal Touch screen in the center console, High End sound system by Mark Levinson, front and rear heated and cooled seats, massaging rear seats, power sunshade, cooler/refrigerator, and even an air purifier. Another fact about the LS 430 is it comes equipped with water repellent windshield and side glass. It was also one of the first cars with keyless entry, and the car would sense when you got close to it by turning on puddle lights and the interior lights greeting you before you enter. The Lexus LS 430 was and in my opinion continues to be a timeless classic and one of the most impressive Lexus vehicles to ever be sold.
