Used 2006 Lexus LS 430 Consumer Reviews
Inadequate low beams
The first time I drove my 2006 LS 430 at night, I thought I did not have my headlights properly turned on. I could not see well enough to drive over 30 mph. When I called the dealer the technition mentioned that I was the third person that week to make the same complaint so I left it for diagnosis. Result- "no problem, "everything checked out to specs." When I pushed the saftey issue, I basically got a shrug and was told that the headlight system takes a while to get used to. I got caught in a rainstorm on the interstate last night and had to slow down to 35 mph. I could not see anything but other cars were passing by with no problem. Anyone else?
Sophistication
After trading in my Jaguar S 4.3, this car is a pleasure. Scheduled service and XM radio install were the only service visits. Treated like royalty in the service and sales departments. The ride is unmatched. The drivers seat has a crazy number a possible adjustments including "depth" for taller or shorter than average drivers. Lexus has thought of everything.

Brooks review
Very impressive handling. The LS 430 surprised me with its ability to accelerate, handle curves, and gas mileage on the road. Very spacious interior, with beautiful leather seats and wood grain interior. Beautiful car.
Best Car I Ever Owned
Purchased the 2006 Lexus LS430 with 92k in 2012, It has 180,000k now, replaced only wear-n-tear parts, change the oil every 3 to 4000ks, still drives as it did, just like the first time I drove it. Very reliable, dependable, and sustainable vehicle. Sorry Lexus discontinued the model, possibly the best Luxury Sedan they ever made. I'm satisfied with my 2006 Lexus LS430.

Simply great
I have owned quite a few cars, about 19, including a couple of Q45's and BMW 741iL and this one takes the title. The BMW was junk, the infiniti's nice but not at this level. Only drawbacks, are drivers seat is so-so and has a cassette deck ( which I knew when I bought, no mp3) and the nav system is outdated, even for an 06. Otherwise, wow, what a ride and problem free for the past 23,000 miles having bought this new. It really does live up to its reputation, fun to drive, good performance when you step on it, and smooth as silk. Even my teenage daughters want to drive it, so the kewl factor survives, once you get into it.
