2004 Lexus GS 430 Consumer Reviews

Bang for your buck

Vehicle

2004 Lexus GS 430 4dr Sedan (4.3L 8cyl 5A)

Review

The GS 430 2004 is just an amazing car I don't feel any separation from cars costing thousands more, the ride is exquisite, and the performance puts you in the mix of cars that cost so much more.

Dream Car

Vehicle

2004 Lexus GS 430 4dr Sedan (4.3L 8cyl 5A)

Review

Just bought a pre-owned 2004 GS 430, parchment exterior and black interior. What a beauty! This car is fast, classy, has wonderful fit and finish. Interior is a great place to be. Comfortable and controls are logical and fun to play with. The Mark Lev stereo is phenomenal. Best car stereo I have ever heard. Also have a 2001 TL with Bose which is very good, but Mark Lev is noticeably better. This car has it all - performance, reliability, comfort, value (especially if you purchase pre-owned in good condition - 7700 mis certified), looks, and a trusted brand with good service and warranty. I look forward to driving this car whenever I can!

Not worth the money

Vehicle

2004 Lexus GS 430 4dr Sedan (4.3L 8cyl 5A)

Review

It's comfortable and reliable but handles like a bus and is marginally responsive. Bridgestone 17" tires are the noisiest I ever heard. Missing a number of features like, rain sensing wipers, a passenger side mirror that drops in reverse and the heated seats have but one level. My wife's 2000 ES has 2 levels. Has perpetual rattles in dash that dealer can't cure and a permanent stain on the rear seat from a tire being placed there, Lexus central was no help with either issue. It gets you back and forth smoothly and reliably, but at $50K plus there should be more from the car and Lexus service. Cars costing 30/40% less are more exciting and just as reliable.

Fantastic

Vehicle

2004 Lexus GS 430 4dr Sedan (4.3L 8cyl 5A)

Review

I had my Benz since I was 16 till my GF got her GS300. I loved that car, smooth and quiet, powerful and sporty but lux as well. So I requested a GS430 and finally got it after 25 days, my car was imported from Lexus, Japan exclusively and now I even don't want to drive my new 2003 E55 AMG! It's smooth! It's loving! My mom has a 745ih and my father has a S67 Lourinser, believe me they never ride 1/10 of a Lexus! Of course the S67 is faster! Even I guess my E55 AMG is faster and of course M5 is faster, but even a V8 Camaro can't be seen on your miror. Go for a Lexus, it's almost 2 years that I'm driving 5 hours a day! I can't leave the car, nothing has been occured so far! Go for it! Go!

400 Series better performers

Vehicle

2004 Lexus GS 430 4dr Sedan (4.3L 8cyl 5A)

Review

I moved into a GS430 from a GS400. Better Nav and sound but no more tiptronic transmission. I attribute the diminution in throttle response and tip- in response to the different tranny and possibly gear ratios from the 400. I have to stomp on the go pedal to get it going. GS400 more responsive and fun to drive. After the lease is up, I'm looking at the new Infiniti M45.

I had a GS 300 before this one. I love the size and overall performance. Teh V8 perfects this package and smooths the whole car out.

Car of the year

Vehicle

2004 Lexus GS 430 4dr Sedan (4.3L 8cyl 5A)

Review

As one who has owned 5 Lexus automobiles, this is definitely the best one. If you are interested in a relatively trouble-free vehicle coupled with good comfort and performance and all of the "bells and whistles", the 2004 LS430 is the car for you.

GS430 Classy and Sporty car

Vehicle

2004 Lexus GS 430 4dr Sedan (4.3L 8cyl 5A)

Review

I recently bought a GS430 let me tell you i've had nothing but a great experience with the car. The v8 engine is awesome. I chose the GS430 over an M3 Convertible, the M3 lacked many of the luxury features that the GS had. 300HP engine purrs and jumps off the line. Great car everything you would expect from the legendary Lexus name
