Used 1992 Lexus LS 400 Consumer Reviews
Nice long term vehicle
I bought with 48,000mi. Now have 148,500. I was going to trade for a more fuel-efficient, but tried using regular instead of premium gas. Still gets 20-21 in town and 25-26 on the hwy and hasn't given me any trouble running regular. I've replaced timing belt, ac compressor/condenser, and it still runs great.
Smooth as Butter
I bought it off eBay. Drove from Akron Ohio to West Palm Beach. It's a dream to drive on the interstate with plenty of power, plus 25 mpg. Not bad at all.
Reliability
I own both the Original LS400 and the new LS430. The LS400 is bulletproof in reliability. (In many ways the Build quality is better than the new one) Great performance and no issues so far other than scheduled maintenance. Look out for cars beyond 90K. It is essential the timing belt and water pump be changed by then. Other than that it's a car worth buying provided it has been properly taken care of.
lovemylexus
I have 164,000 on it and it still rides great. The drivers seat is not as comfortable as I would like and it would be great to be able to lower it some for extra headroom but it is terrific in every other way. Reliability has been awesome for a luxury car. There is a lot left in this car and you can't say that about any American luxury cars. Caddy's and Lincoln's are unreliable and expensive to keep by 100k so forget about them. buy one and see for yourself. Don't let the mileage slow you down!
Lexus Quality
Car has over 100K miles and drives and looks new. Quality is unmatched. Great used car value!! Best Car I have owned.
