A great deal of thought has gone into the design of this car. From interior design to collapsible side view mirrows, parking assist, comfortable ride, fuel conservation, eye appeal, an engineering marvel, this car is really, really great.

The quietest running car I have ever driven. It may be the best car I have ever owned.

I bought the Lexus LS 400 in 1991 and it lasted over 180,000 miles with no major, or minor problems. I purchased the LS 430 when it came out and it is better than the LS 400. The ride is worth every penny and I know this car will go 250,000 miles easiely if I don't "tire" of the design. For my money, I won't buy any other car but Lexus!

Sold: The fantastic ride, comfort, and economy are amazing. I love this car!! Now had it six months and love it even more, don't look around just get on of these dream machines. Now had over 12 months and WOW I love this car, not an ounce of trouble and a dream ride. My next car will simply be a new Lexus! Or a Tesla if I strike it rich lol. Now Aug 2017 and I still love the car and no issues of any sort.

Bought well maintained LS430 with 66,000 miles 9/2009. Smooth, powerful responsive engine and transmission with good control via transmission alternative choices. Nice style, good mileage for size and power. Nice suspension, glad I did not choose harder Euro suspension. Steering too light, too much power assist for my taste.Excellent climate control ( no NAV) layout and function. Standard sound OK but nothing great. Seats look nice but lack lateral and thigh support. Passenger seat too short. NO SECONDARY SUN VISOR? Are you kidding Lexus? Gas pedal and brake too far to left, getting foot in middle of brake takes odd motion. Nice car but wish I had looked more at MB and DTS.
