  • Today's review is a 2015 Lexus GX460. With an under stressed 4.76LV8 that's capable of crossing all corners of the Earth, and can do so in ultimate comfort, its no wounder these used Japanese mall crawlers are so sought after. While this SUV may be outdated, and perhaps overpriced, they still hold their own, and the sales figure show for it. So, lets see why...

    Bought my 2012 GX460 8 months ago. paid 23k and it had 97k miles. I do not regret trading in my 2014 Tacoma. The GX rides like a champ on and off road.

      I see a '15 for $28k i know its unsurpassed refinement luxury & durability but I'm wondering if it has Adaptive Cruise, USB & Brake Hold
      if not that adds too much outdated elements with the poor fuel economy
      So I'll have to get the '17 Lexus RX350.... DARN

      We own a 2010. It has 337,000 miles. It has been a maintenance nightmare. We had to put a set of plugs in it. 1 coil pack, a couple of sets of brakes and a radiator lol. We own that one, a 99 4Runner and a 2000 4Runner. We have 1.5 million miles between the three and change oil every 20,000 miles. We have never done one major repair. After you own one you will never go back.

    The GX 460 is and will be legendary! It is bullet proof and still retain the Lexus design language which is conservative, incremental improvements, luxurious , refined and just works. The 2022-2023 model year had the redesigned infotainment which was the main selling point for me. I bought a 2023 GX 460 Luxury with Sport Desing Package and port installed tow hitch and a bunch of other goodies. I love this truck!

      Yep -same here! I intentionally did not want a twin turbo GX 550 V6 in the first introduction year and the back orders for the 560 were at least 6 months or more! The GX 460 drives great - smooth, steady and quiet; if I wanted a sports car I would not have purchased an SUV! My highway mpg is 22-25 at 65 mph! This is a great vehicle that I’d now gone for 2024!

    Yes, it is a really nice car, reliable and unobtrusive. I don't evenn think it's looking outdated. In general, until a few years ago i didn't have toyota and lexus on my screen. But recently, their design has improved nicely so that, in combination with the reliability and the fair prices, i am thinking about buying one as my next car.
