For those of us who don't define ourselves by the hood ornament on our car, the LS 430 is both a fantastic solidly-built car and a great deal. It drives much smaller than it is, it's got great power when you "drop the hammer", the Mark Levinson stereo puts many high-dollar home systems to shame, and it's truly comfortable for 5 adults. Plus it's got enough trunk room to make you wonder why people buy SUVs, and the gas mileage is better than you'd expect for a car of this size.

Awesome vehicle

This car makes the long drive home fun and you can't wait for a long trip. Seats are terrific with excellent double lumbar support. Mark Levinson sound system is better than the one I have in my home. Brakes are wonderful and the 290 HP engine gets you where you want quickly and effortlessly. If you want a trouble free luxury sedan, there is only one car to have and the 430 is it.

LS 430 is pure comfort

This is our 4th Lexus LS since 1990. The 2005 Lexus LS 430 has exceeded our expectations. Many unique upgrade features make it a pleasure to drive. It is quiet, smooth and comfortable. The body is tight and has a nice finish. High test fuel economy is not great so far. Original equipment high performance all season Dunlop tires give a quiet ride and good handling, but according to the manufacturer, are predicted to last not more than 20,000 mi.

This is the finest automobile I've ever owned. The quality of build, ride, creature comforts, style and amenities are second to none. Even better is the reliability of Lexus built into this vehicle. Yes this is expensive, but compared to the competition, this car is a bargain.
