Lexus GX 470 for Sale

Edmunds' Expert Review

by the Edmunds Experts

Pros

Luxurious cabin furnishings, plush ride quality, fine road manners, smooth drivetrain, plenty of off-road ability should you need it.

Cons

Very tight quarters in optional third-row seat, limited rearward visibility, modest top-end horsepower.

What’s new

The GX has a number of safety upgrades this year that include a roll-sensing feature for the side-curtain airbags, a tire-pressure monitoring system and an optional rear backup camera system (for those vehicles with the navigation system installed). An optional Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System will be available as a late-year addition.

Edmunds says

A luxurious sport-ute that offers a near-perfect blend of on- and off-road capability. You won't miss the LX 470.

2004 Lexus GX 470 4WD 4dr SUV (4.7L 8cyl 5A)

I bought this in 2012, 8 years old, 98,000 miles and it looked brand new. I was replacing an old Land Cruiser - wife wanted something nicer inside and newer, an found out this is an off-shoot of the Land Cruiser. Dealer wisely let me take it home and there was no going back. Five years later, 185,000 miles and it rides like new, quiet and smooth. Replaced all brakes and rotors, which …

2004 Lexus GX 470 4WD 4dr SUV (4.7L 8cyl 5A)

I bought our 2004 GX470 in 2012. We owned it for 2 years and 7 months. It was a good vehicle for us and the engine/transmission are rock solid. Personally, looking back, I would buy one with LESS features. The dynamic suspension is expensive to replace, for example. I also had to replace the sensors for the rear air leveling as they both failed on separate occasions which was VERY …

2004 Lexus GX 470 4WD 4dr SUV (4.7L 8cyl 5A)

Absolute perfection in a vehicle as far as reliability and build quality. Rides a bit stiff, but with solid rear axle and frame construction it's to be expected. Nothing missing in Lexus' plan for a vehicle.

2004 Lexus GX 470 4WD 4dr SUV (4.7L 8cyl 5A)

I am a car nut and really critical of everything I drive and I have had most every car on the market. I bought this GX with 94K, it now has 125K. I cannot believe this vehicle was any smoother or ran any better when new. Awesome vehicle! Not one problem of any kind.
