This is my second Lexus LS! Cost of ownership is minimal other than oil changes every 5 to 7 thousand miles. Comfort of ride and a quiet environment sets the LS apart from its competition! 4 years into ownership and my LS rides like the day I drove it off the showroom floor..

I now own a 2013 LS 460, it's the fourth LS I've owned since the first generation. I've also owned a ES 250, showing my age, a ES 300 and a GS 300. Every single Lexus I've owned I've never had to do more than change the oil, change tires and brakes and batteries as needed, all wearable parts and that's that. I've personally put over 300k on my 95 LS and 200k plus on my GS ,no problem. I'm 43, and my 2013 just turned 80k, I'll probably die with this car and my soon to come 2020 corvette lol. Lexus is always go when I'm sick of getting fckd by bmw x5 trash ,3 series puff, 5 series lil gunner but small, 7 series complete disappointment..1996 850 csi fun like benz , Mercedes (had a 2003cl 600), repairs are outrageous, dealers charged 9900.00 for the Mercedes b service n still fckd my 160k dollar car up, 9900 for nada, needed a 500 dollar part, good as new and that's with sixty thousand miles...long story short I've personally seen mint condition Lexuses with almost a million miles on em n many ,double digits of cars with 300k plus miles..use lucas synthetic and synthetic oil n swap a court of oil for a quart of lucas each oil change save receipt and if ur engine goes you get a new one free..seriously, none of those cars left me stranded ever, and my wife had a 2000 ex 300 SUV , flipped it n rolled down a hill n came out without a scratch n the car still ran n drove, not good lol but she was safe and that truck saved her.

Well engineered and outstanding quality control. Got the extended warranty even thought it has never had a mechanical problem. The quality control for this Lexus is outstanding. Other than technology it is the perfect pre-owned luxury vehicle.

I could write a story which may not fit this page about my experience with Lexus LS460AWD , but decide to provide some summaries: up to 52k regular maintenance, oil change, filters, scheduled services base of mileage , etc. no problems. 52k - 96k things get very bad. This is the list of thing I fixed: break calipers drive shafts both sides upper control arms and bushings changed 2x ! both sides struts mount plates both sides swing bar left break actuator front differential approx. repair cost $20.000

The Inside Melts

I am very disappointed in Lexus and Lexus Brand Engagement. My last three cars have been Lexus LS. My wife and I currently have two Lexus LS - a 2012 and a 2015. The interior of the 2012 is melting away (sticky and cracked) - especially the four arm rests, the glove box and center console. I brought the 2012 to the dealer yesterday and was told if I brought the car in by March all the parts would have been replaced free of charge with new ones under a customer support program ZLZ. I called Lexus Brand Engagement yesterday and spoke to them today. They claimed that they sent a notification to my wife in 2018. She does not recall receiving it. Since, I was unaware of the ZLZ program, I drove the car with all its flaws for several years. My wife and I have been servicing our cars at the same dealer since 2006. No one at the dealership ever commented on the deteriorating interior or the existence of the ZLZ program. According to the Lexus Brand Engagement representative it was my responsibility to report the problem, not the dealers. The logic - it was not a safety related issue. I am completely dissatisfied with this response.
