Used 2012 Lexus GX 460 Consumer Reviews
GX 460 Trumps
I was in the market for about 3 months, I looked at the Escalade, rovers, bmw's and the whole gamut of luxury SUV and then i returned back to Lexus. I had an ES 350 that was wrecked by a bad driver so I set out to find what I needed and wanted. After driving all the option I fell in love with the Lexus GX 460. When i sat in the GX I said out loud, "this is it" only to seal the deal with a test drive. You might get another car that has more bling or another feature that you might want but you will never find a car that can take on the GX 460 in its entirety. This car drives like a sports car in sport mode with the tap shift and drives like a cloud when on comfort mode. I never looked back.
Still the best on the road!
we traded in our 2009 470 for the 2011 460 and have had it for over 1 year. It still performs and rides as it did the day we drove it off the showroom. Quiet, smooth acceleration, a 500 mile trip is just a smooth ride - no back ache or sore muscles. I have owned a 4 runner and anyone who compares that to a 460 doesnt know what they are talking about. Great vehicle highly recommend it -

A Man's Truck
A luxury SUV that was designed for the guys instead of the wife. Guys...if you love driving a 4wd truck, but want all of the luxury of the best sedans but without feeling like it's for a suburban mom, this is the truck for you.
Top Notch SUV
Lexus did no disappoint with this SUV. It's sleek exterior is impressive while the interior stands above the rest in its class. We expected luxury with a bit of sportiness and this fit exactly that! The GX drives smoothly even with its size, which you usually don't get with SUVs. It always helps to know that this car's reliability ratings were excellent...which is what you expect with purchasing a Lexus.
Japanese automotive used to be bulletproof.
Poor acceleration, problematic rear air suspension, terrible MPG, lack of standard safety aids found in lower priced makes. We owned this Premium GX 460 from 38k till it had 97k on the odometer. It was dealer serviced from new (we used the same Lexus dealer the first owner purchased and serviced at) but even that could not keep the above mentioned issues from being ongoing problems. We also had to have a steering rack, radiator, ABS brake module, fan blower motor and a few other items replaced. This vehicle was not used hard and still developed issues that were VERY expensive to replace. Ongoing squeaking of Lexus dealer installed brakes and rear suspension sagging on one side finally were enough to go with a different make.
