2005 used Lexus LS 430 personal experience

J.G., 03/27/2021
2005 Lexus LS 430
Hello: I never thought I would ever desire to join the community of car review writers, but I feel really driven to do it. I am just a common guy that have always loved cars since I was a child and this was transmitted to me by my dear father. Without knowing all the details of the engineering of a vehicle, I am able to feel and recognize what an excellent vehicle is when I drive it … through different road surfaces,hilly roads with curves, holes, bumps,etc. I like to feel how fast the vehicle accelerates, how it breaks down to zero from high speeds, how it corners, etc. How smooth it goes over holes and bumps without feeling annoying jumping in my seat and without hearing noises inside specially at the dashboard that really bothers me. In December 2020 I purchased a 2005 Lexus LS 430 with 137,000 plus original miles. There was a leak from the valves gaskets and also from the lines of the transmission and power steering; the later two very mild. I took the car to the Lexus dealer and fixed those problems. Thanks God the car doesn’t have any other problems and is in excellent condition. I purchased the vehicle after I tested it the way I mentioned above. I compared this car with newer Lexus models, a 2018 BMW 5 series, a 2017 Cadillac. It is amazing how this old car runs, performs, how comfortable is, how silent(although not perfectly quiet) the cabin is. This is our first Lexus and honestly I will not change it for any Lexus newer model or any other car and invested money in repairs mentioned. I may keep on writing about the excellent qualities of this old car but I will just finish saying that the experience of driving or being a passenger in this old 2005 Lexus LS 430 car is much better than the one obtain from our 2017 Toyota Sienna XLE . This is a follow up of my first review of my 2005 Lexus LS430 owner experience. Today is September 29th,2021 and I purchased my Lexus in January 8th, 2021 with 137,000 plus original miles and just one previous owner. Now it has 149,753 miles because I have traveled to different states and I really like the experience of driving it around. Since I purchased the vehicle I expended money correcting leaks in the transmission, power steering fluid lines. Also there was a leak from the engine valves gasket that was as corrected and incredibly from the engine oil check deep stick . All these repairs costed thousands of dollars at the Lexus dealership but all the leaks where corrected with original parts. I also noticed that the vehicle seemed to be “floating “ at high speeds on the highway. I the shock absorbers were checked and the front ones weren’t leaking and were after market. The rear shocks were original and one was leaking. I decided to replace all four with Lexus original shock absorbers. The “floating” sensation disappeared and not only that happened. The cornering, braking and the way the car steering feels is much stiffer and it feels like a safer vehicle. I know that I have expended thousands of dollars in an old vehicle but let me tell you that has been worth the expense. Every time I take the car to the Lexus dealership they provide me with a “loaner” vehicle which have just few miles in the odometer. This cars because they are”modern” they have many electronic improvements,they are faster,etc. But, my old car is more comfortable inside and the ride is much better in terms of suspension. The newer ones are “stiffer” because they have a “sporty” suspension. When I purchased the car my wife reminded me that I will expend money because the car was old. I can tell you that now she loves the car and says that is the most comfortable of the house including her 2017 Sienna LXE that only has 20,000 miles and is “sleeping” in our garage. Considering that it is a V8 it is very fuel efficient specially if you don’t push the gas pedal to overdrive frequently. In general it has been a wonderful experience to purchase this 2005 Lexus LS430. I can only imagine how wonderful would have been to purchase it new in 2004 or 2005.
