Car runs smooth & accelerates fast. (Factory Power boost button gives silky smooth acceleration onto freeways).
Before I bought the car in 2013, I paid the Lexus Dealer for their 120? Point Inspection and everything was fine there. I welcome you to do the same if you'd like, contact me.

The LS430 was essentially identical from 2004-2006. The 2001-2003 LS430, which replaced the long running LS400, had some funny front & rear end design that was fixed in 2004. You see a TON of LS's still on the street because they are so safe and reliable. I often see them parked in front of mansions in Beverly Hills because people just love and keep them even if they can afford another, newer car.
Dramatic all new swoopy design to the LS460 in 2007 on makes the 2004-2006 LS430 a truly timeless design.
The 2005 LS430 scored PERFECT OR NEAR PERFECT in all categories in Consumer Reports Magazine.
In 2004, Car & Driver Magazine reviewed and pitted the LS430 against the BMW 7 series, Mercedes S Class, Jaguar XJ8, Audi A8L and the LEXUS BEAT THEM ALL!!!! They said buy the LS430 Sport if you want a more road-feeling BMW-esque ride
Less then 5% of all LS430's made had the sport suspension package.
Front seats are Ventilated to cool them (and you) on hot days. Moreover, the dove (light) grey leather seats do not attract as much heat as black seats would.
Plenty of rear seat legroom (more than the standard wheelbase 2007 LS460 had). Rear seats have individual lighted vanity mirrors. Moreover, the right rear seat has controls to move the front right seat forward to extend legroom when being chauffeured around. Both rear seats have single stage seat heaters.
GPS Navigation.
I purchased the car in 2013 with approximately 41, 000 miles on it. It had been driven by an older woman (most of these LS's are).
It has been in California all its life and to my knowledge has never been in the snow, thus never exposed to salt.
The car is in West LA/Santa Monica and available for local test drive or personal inspection.

“Small nicks and scratches to bumpers. High curb scratched the paint on rear bumper behind left rear wheel. Another curb scratched the paint on the bottom right hand bumper below the tailpipe. Overall kept in pristine condition. Some discoloration to leather on drivers side leather door panel due to wearing sunscreen. Leather is excellent shape with no tears. Very Nominal amount of waviness to drives bottom seat cushion (which is typical of the LS430 with climate controlled ventilated seats). The drivers side electronic seatbelt electronic height adjuster is not working and there is no manual override so it is in the highest position. The rotating center console vents do not rotate. The front windshield glass was replaced due to a road debris crack. Sunglasses holder overhead is a little tricky to put back into place after opening, but does close. Some curb scratches to the wheels but still look sharp overall.” |
