This new 2018 LS 500 is my sixth Lexus, and it is far and away better than any of my previous cars. I was reluctant to buy it because of the negative review by Consumer Reports, but they missed the mark in this newly redesigned gem that is patterned after their new LC 500. I rate it at the highest level.

It is more expensive but this I my fourth LS and they just keep getting better. The depreciation is reasonable and a lot better than a Mercedes, BMW or AUDI. If I were fleeing a gang of criminals, there might be a better car but I do not do that. The reliability of every one of my LS's (2004, 2007, 2013 and now the 2018) has been superb and I value that a lot. I am not that intoxicated by the three pointed star but if I drive 450 miles this car could not be much better and yet every year they improve it. Keep it up Lexus! I have been in Engineering for 45 years and quality of build and reliability are musts. There area lot of great cars out there but you can depend on Lexus and its excellent dealer network. It would be hard for me to go to a different brand. The infotainment system is a bit complicated but if you take a little time you can use it well. The German brands do not perform much if any better and they sure depreciate fast.

Reliably good car but terrible technology

This is my 4th LS. Besides the expected quality and reliability, this is a fun car to drive. Not as velvety as the prior 3, but smooth enough for the added driving experience. Seats and cabins are comfortable. Now to the horribly unreliable technology. The worst is the voice recognition. It's utterly worthless. The process to navigate through the various functions is dangerous because of the poor design, but it's flaky nature makes it even more dangerous. The climate control is awful. The foot under trunk sensor has worked twice and both times I didn't mean to make it work. Its never worked when I've tried. And the anti collision sensors are WAY to sensitive. I've pulled up to shrubs in a parking lot a little quick and the car unexpectedly slams on the breaks and sounds an alarm. Scares the crap out of you. If they could just dual in the technology the car would get a 5 from me

I have a LS 500 with luxury package and the noise from the inside of car was unbearable. Took it to dealership in Houston Sterling McCall Lexus and they informed me that the noise maybe the sunroof and they would need to break it down and charge me 1500 to see the problem. Now that extremely unheard and since it their flagship and with luxury package they should have done it to find out concerns with dual sunroof and the future problem with other models. Also it should be something covered under warranty since it structural concerns and not wear and tear. They refuse to do the job without charging me for the work.

I bought the LS 500.not completely understanding just how dangerous the technology package is. The design is so not user friendly. The tiny touchpad that is at gearshift level is extremely sensitive and not easy to navigate. I love the way the car drives, but this set up makes it NOT WORTH THE PURCHASE. Also I should hv gotten a voice command system w touchscreen at eye level. Looking down all the time is so Dangerous. Also my tire shredded literally at 3k miles . It took manufacture 6 months after that to recall all 4 tires. I was very scared to drive the car. When it happened I was going 80. The car swerved all over the highway. If there had been a car near me it most likely would hv been fatal. The absolute most terrifying experience I hv evr.been through. The dealer did reimburse me. I feel they should have replaced all the sorry ass runflats way sooner then they did. I drive all over us. Buying this lexus 500 LS has this far been a horrible DANGEROUS mistake . I also own a 460 LS that I hv 100k miles and still Love.
