Just got my new LX F Sport. Finally was able to buy one without the “Market Adjustment” mark up. Absolutely love it!
🎉 Congratulations 👏 just got my NX 350 FSPORT a while back. Loving it
The LX is probably my dream SUV. Give me about 5 years...and I'll have one!
thats definitely the amount of time needed to be able to afford these cars now and days. They thinking everyone can afford 100k for a car that does the same thing as a 35k car
You already have one 😎
The GX is more in my range 😂
Have one right love it. However, Lexus needs to address mpg. It’s sucks. Lol. I want 22-25mpg premium gas!
May your dream come true bro
The LX600 and X7 should never be mentioned in the same sentence. The Land Cruiser based LX is designed to last a minimum of 25 years of off-road abuse. The X7 will break down while trying to drive up a curb.
😂😂
Lmaooo trueee
100% true 👍
Well you just mentioned it in the same sentence sooooo
Neither the LS450..... he most probably meant LS400
This is my dream truck! I can just hear how quiet this vehicle is, and it glides through the road. It has a demanding stance and I love it.❤😍
Lol, this truck's mission is that bring waifu and children for off road trip😂
Okay Lexus I see ya now. Looking pretty good with this LX. Now let's see what the 2024 GX and TX bring with the media drive 👍🏻
Lexus biggest selling point is my biggest factor when buying a vehicle, Longevity.
Great job Joe, my next dream car!!
They've had my order deposit for over a year... still no word of delivery date 😊. Can't wait
The big difference between the Lexus and BMW is you will have someone driving the Lexus 300000 400000 miles. The BMW will be in the junk yard at that mileage.
This motor hasn’t proven that type of dependability yet for Lexus. Your statement is based on historical instances and quite frankly, wrong. I’ve owned 4 Toyota products and they had the same issues as every other car I’ve ever owned.
@@mr75204 atleast it doesn't look like an abomination from the front. Can't say the same about the latest x7 though.
@@mr75204 You can't be hating on Lexus being a beamer. It's understandable if you're coming from audi rs / mercedes amg but please bro, not the new bmw designs 🤣. They even ruined the look of the 5 series and 7 series . The M4 is just atrocious looking . It's painful watching how much their designs went downhill in last 5 years.
I don't need a third row and I like the second row bench seat. I'd take this over anything in the market.
Black chrome, indeed, would look much better on the mirror caps and the door trim. When comparing this model or any other Lexus model to either the BMW or Mercedes, I believe that you'll always get more bang for the buck, especially in the area of reliability. The way this LX is optioned is very appealing to me even with the standard sunroof. This updated LX is just magnificent, in my humble opinion.
Loved this Lexus, it is a beauty. The full bench for the second row is very useful considering this is a mid size but for the price I would also consider a full size suv.
That’s full size suv
The new tx is mid size
@@onterrioredmon5711 Even though it is a big suv, the third row wasn’t meant for adults and the cargo area is barely usable when the seats are up.
Well another way u can think about it regarding the LX vs TX is yes, the LX is a full size on the outside, due to the height. Inside tho, it's closer to midsized dimensions. The TX is a midsize SUV on the outside due to the height. Inside tho, it's closer to a full sized dimensions.
@@omarcortes5754 and that’s why the lx 600 is losing in the full-size suv segment because the Escalade and the navigator all have good cargo capacity with the third row up that’s why I didn’t get a lx 600 tx is a midsize but has more cargo space than the lx 600
After seeing all the reviews on the the X7, GLS, Escalade, and Range Rover my wife ended up wanting the Lexus LX 700. BMW and Range Rover reliability are notoriously bad and i wasn’t willing to roll the dice because time is money. The Escalade was gorgeous but she wanted something more nimble and easy to drive on the daily and the Lexus checked off all the marks. The Mercedes is also beautiful, but she loves d the fact how rare you see the LX on the road and I loved their reliability and resale value. Win Win
Can't wait for that GX550 review joe!
Really just depends on needs. Looking to keep something longer? The Lexus. Looking to just keep something for a few years then move onto the next model? The BMW
Not really. The BMW will be in the shop the first 3 months, believe my words. Even on warranty, you’re left without a car when it’s in the shop.
Not necessarily true. I have a 2018 X5 and it has not been in the shop since I got it. Thankfully. Scheduled maintenance and caring about your major purchase is key.
@@ddunnsr1True! Very happy you haven't had any issues for you and it's very true that if you take care of your car, it'll take care of you.
I think we can perhaps agree though there are just some brands of cars that even with perfect maintenance tends to have more failures etc than some other brands with perfect maintenance
@@JuanPabloRiojasGaming I agree.
My sister's brand new X3 broke down when her and her family were on holiday. It wasn't the $1,000 bill for replacing a sensor, nor the fact that she had to go to 2 difference BMW dealers and ended up at the only dealer that could help, which was 90 miles away from where they were staying, but the fact that she no car for the entire holiday, and she had to get a 15-mile taxi ride to the nearest train station, then a train, then another taxi to the dealer ... twice!
*Yet my sister will look you dead in the face and tell you the car was reliable, and that she's had no "real problems" with the car!*
My friend also had an X5 from new, and her latest .... thang ... is that the handbrake (e-brake) doesn't work. So when she parks on her drive, which is on a slight gradient, with her two kids strapped in the back ... she panics that the car will roll down the street.
That, along with the suspension issues, infotainment glitches flashing like you're in a Miami club ... and many other problems … and memories of many a morning having to push start my Landlords M3 E30, so he could bump start it .... along with many other BMW engine failures, steering rack failures and electrical glitches ... I tend to give BMW a big swipe left!
As for the VW Boxster my brother owned, ... that's a disaster story for another thread!
I'd definitely choose this over the X7,not a fan of 3rows but this looks better and It will go miles without breaking "TOYOTA" unlike the X7
I like the 600, Lexus build quality is hard to pass on.. but no semi autonomous drive, like others at or even below this price point- subscription tech (which is actually understandable with the state of innovation), no pano roof, so so fuel economy, and no massage seats unless you go super luxury with the airline chairs in the back… I don’t know, I feel like others are just doing it better in the luxury suv game..
When my GX died after 13 years and 300K miles (well didn’t die just needed more repair than I was willing to do) I cross shopped every competitor from Genesis, BMW, Mercedes up to 150K and ended up buying pretty much this exact vehicle. Every option on it they could do. Happily paid MSRP for the 23 LX600 FSport. I’m about 2500 miles in and just love it.
I just bought a 23 GX 460 but lx 600 is next
I love no sun roof , so glad no big huge glass roof , love all the manual buttons , love love the old school

I kind of have to disagree with Joe on the placement of chrome on this Lexus. To me, the Chrome is evocative of little flashes of lightning against the dark storm cloud.
Only Lexus nothing else!!!!!!!!!!!!🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Its nice to see Lexus update however the previous V8 engine was bullet proof and perfected over the years resulting long reliability. Lexus should had 5.0 natural aspirated V8 option for the F sport!
Many owners agreed that the V8 was better in the LX570.
Definitely!!! It’s more reliable than a shit BMW!
But more higher quality than Lexus
@@darkivaz-aaa1145 sadly not true! BMW won’t last you 300k miles with little to no service.
@@singh853_5 BINGO !!
@@singh853_5same with toyota this days😂
@@syntaxerror8482 nah Toyota is still making better cars than most brands out there reliability wise.
The Lexus brand is of high quality in my opinion and they continue to make 8 cylinder cars so kudos to Lexus. The GX 460 has a 8 cylinder engine.
2024, that’s out the window. G550 is up next 👆🏽with the twin turbo V6
Uh, what are you talking about? There is no V8 here in the new LX nor is there on in the new GX. Wake up and join the 2024 model year.
@@MiahV007I think the LC 500 and IS 500 F-sport performance are the last 2 Lexus with the NA V8 engine for 2024 and beyond before they’re gone. You can count the RC F too since it also has the V8.
Wish it had captain seats in the back and a 3rd row. Feel the shifter needs to be smaller also make it look more roomy. Lexus definitely more reliable but the BMW is way more luxurious.
🇺🇸 *LOVE this Lexus LX 600 F Sport* !! *Two-tone interior is FAB* !! *High priced* !! *Shocked to see so many REAL buttons on the dash* !! #RaitisRides 🇺🇸
My man Joe, back in action
Oh that's a good one and the LX 600 is amazing and put together perfectly but the X7 is something out of this world.
The one and only! LX is the ❤ my automotive life.
PS: Hydraulic suspension.
The LX 600 is a luxury vehicle. It should not have an F Sport tuned suspension. I would buy this SUV though. Very nice.
The f sport trim has the best grill in my opinion. Too bad the f sport is not available on other trim.
I love my LX 600 F Sport
This Lexus LX 600 F Sport Compared with:
- BMW X7 M Sport
- Audi Q7 50 TDI
- Mercedes GLS 63 S
- Chevrolet Tahoe RST
- Ford Expedition Timberline
- Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat
- Infiniti QX80 Sensory
- Cadillac Escalade Platinum
- GMC Yukon Denali
- Lincoln Navigator Black Label
- Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk
- And More
GLS 450. It doesn't compare to the GLS63 or even the GLS580 under the hood.
Considering a Sequoia Capstone is 100k (as are most loaded mainstream full-size SUVs today), this $108k seems like a steal😂.
A beautifully crafted SUV that will likely stand the test of time, a lot of tech these days that will be expensive to fix/calibrate if kept long-term. I'm old enough to remember when you could buy a nice condo for $107K. A Zonk for lack of cargo room while using the 3rd row seat, limits comfort to 4 adults or 3 kids in the back fighting in the second row if you're on a road trip and have cargo/luggage to haul.
I went with the 2024 BMW X7 M60i as the technology is far superior. During shopping, I compared them both. My opinion, there is nothing that beats the BMW in a large SUV class.🚙
Escalade I’d say is #1
It looks like a Nissan. One is car based for moms and the LX is a true luxury 4x4.
Joe and Lori and Steve and keep up the good work and I love the video 👍 💯
My dream SUV
Still waiting on your review of the 2024 LC500!
Now my dream Lexus LX600 SUV I can buy.
The check engine light is already on in the BMW, so yes, the Lexus is better...
That's a very nice car. It's just this and other similar suvs in this category are over riced. Also still trying to comprehend the combo of luxury and off roading; they don't seem to mix with mud!
I jumped in a few Lexus Suvs at the Car show. And I have to admit. As soon as you sit in one you can't deny the premium luxury. So yeah Lexus is among the best
Agree - needs black chrome trim IS500 style
Dark chrome is the way to go, Joe. The zunk is totally justified. I believe Lexus and the Koreans really know how to implement dark chrome in their moldings
why must everything be an infatuation with dark this and dark that???i come from a time when chrome was luxurious,still is in my opinion/ a good steak never gets old.
@@joetravieso3165 it is elegant and luxurious. I like shiny chrome and and dark shiny chrome, over black accent. A lot of people prefer balck-outs and it doesn't work on every single vehicle. For more sportier trim, I prefer the black shiny chrome.
The real Landcruiser
i think lexus is way better then bmw because lexus is luxury strong and good resale value
Alright Joe let’s see what Lexus bringing to the table
The answer is NOTHING 😆
Lexus can’t afford to compete with the best
@@naveenthemachineyou know nothing about cars. A high school student driving an 02 Elantra and hating 2 brands with passion. Grow up buddy stop acting like a kid. Oh wait I forgot you are one 💀
No massaging seats? Or did I miss that?
Lexus another level
Love it !
The third row and off road ability are superfluous. A bit old school still. If you want a premium luxury suv you can keep 10-20 years this is it though.
Yes, dark chrome trim please 🙂. I thought it would have the 2.4 turbo 4 cylinder 🤣
Big thanks to Steven Flood photography, videography, cinematography 📼📸📹🎥📽️🎞️ and Joe’s acting choreography 🦹♂️🎭🎬
It needs the old ISF left and right side air vents for cooling & aesthetic purposes.
I like this vehicle a lot would prefer black and I love the chrome accents on mirror, door and throughout
Joe, I’m right there with ya on the zonks for the clashing chrome finishes on the f-sport. The car would look so much more clean and tidy with accents of the primary metallic grey paint or just black in general.
To be honest I never really noticed that on car’s before you started pointing it out in your reviews and now any time I see a car (my highlander has this problem as well) with chrome anything, the zonk-a-meter in my head is going off!
When I ordered my truck I just got the blackout package.
Just saw one on the showroom floor at the dealership for 111K. Nice... but so sad about the lack of NA V8
This review felt like a drunk man half-assing a project! Loved iiit!!!! 😍
You crack me up!
I wanted to say thank you for helping me pick my car. I got a 2024 kia sportage x-pro prestige a few days ago & it feel like I'm driving a rental even though I know it's mine. I can't be more happier your awesome brother thanks for your videos.
Maybe dressing a traditional saudi arabia costume in this reviewing will makes this Lexus even more luxurious!
How the heck can Lexus charge over $100K and not include massage seats for driver but include it for rear passenger WTF 😂
The massage driver’s seat is useless other than making the driver sleepy
Great review. I do like the chrome though. It pops out. Looks great!
Why yes, yes it is.
Joe just fyi it is not an air suspension it is gas and hydraulic 🤓
The color coordination is perfect it brings out the luxurious and exquisite look , facts !
I know this won’t be happening anytime soon but one can dream right? We need a Lexus LX F drop the f sport and drop a V8 under the hood. Thanks to emissions can’t have them anymore
definitely need the massage seats i thought i saw the button on the drivers side but this a very nice vehicle but for the price i rather have a Cadillac Escalade
I'm sure it'll come with the 2024 refresh. Especially since the new GX has the option
@@davidhouston7812 aw ok
Happy Friday, Joe!
Wouldn't go with the F-Sport, that seems counterintuitive. Great SUV though. The perfect "I'm retiring and want a nice SUV I'll never have to replace and can leave in my will" SUV.
rolls cullinan????
Uh oh, a Lexus review!?! Don't tell Naveen 😂😂
Yeah I'm surprised I haven't seen his comment yet😂😂
Wish they put the sequoia capstone engine and panoramic roof.
Yes black chrome
Other than the promise of reliability and off roading, which very few will be doing in a Lexus, the X7 miles better. Optional V8 and on road manner that embarrass the Lexus and the interior is far more modern than the Lexus also.
I don’t mind the chrome. Perhaps brushed nickel or a grey chrome trim to match those beautiful grey wheels!
I consider to buy new 23' Lexus LX600 Sport.
Congrats on the 1 million subscribers! With the amount of money that this car costs, especially in the dealers, I’d rather go treat myself with something like the Mercedes GLS or BMW X7.
Savagegeese also made a video on this and they called out how much it lags behind its competitors. Seeing your review, I could see what those guys meant.
I watch your channel for the food references alone- makes my day :) Mrs Buttersworth? that's a new one!
Hi Joe. Im a subber since 8k subs back in 2018-17 i think. Thnx
If I hit the gas on my 2006 Prius, it passes everyone. $200 Garmin GPS. People waste money. Good for you.
How I wish the F sport badge was also blacked out in the seat, plus replacing the chrome finish to black also.
Just got mine 2 days ago and traded in my lc200. Missing my 200 but also loving my lx600 fsport.
Cool Car!
Is this the luxury version of the Sequoia?
they need to make a lexus LX Hybrid
It's coming 700h
@@davidhouston7812 I am definitely going to be looking for that then.
"Grasshopper the size of Michael Jordan's shoe on his back"....Alltime sir...lol
🇺🇸 *Congrats on 1 MILLION subs* !! #RaitisRides 🇺🇸
Why did he say "let's sit in the 3rd row" and then go right to the cargo area?
Dash / instrument display desperately needs to go full digital and lose the physical gauges.
Considering the rav4 has a 12.3in lcd cluster
💯💯💯
I saw this Lexus first time at Chicago auto show last year. Right off the bat, the exterior style is phenomenal: sexy and masculine, aggressive and sporty. Then I looked and sat inside and I was not very excited. It felt small inside and claustrophobic. Everything is tight around the driver. You can’t touch your lady thru a hight fence of middle panel. Rear trunk is a joke. I have no idea why it is called full size suv. It barely competes with middle size suvs. VW atlas and Grand Highlander will have more trunk. VW and Toyota have massive panoramic roofs. VW Atlas is the perfect example of managing space around the driver. Fully loaded Atlas and Grand Highlander cost 1/2 of this Lexus.
Off course I’d take the Lexus on a heartbeat 💓 especially the LX, LFA, LC, GX.
They need an XL version. I know it compromises the off road capability but i think it'll be worth it. 100k with practically zero trunk space might be a deal breaker.
How big do you really need?
@@RaitisRidesit's 200" Honda Odyssey is 205"...I'm thinking at least 210"
Yukon XL is 225" three spacious rows with cargo space.
This is two spacious rows one tight row and virtually no trunk space.
...also the Lexus TX is 203" It only makes sense that their flagship full size SUV be their longest vehicle. Imo.
)mg more than 1 million Subs now. before we only like 1000 subs way back in 2019 i think. congrats.
No way I will go BMW before a Lexus, reliability of a Lexus is top notch, there new design with F sport features on the LX are awesome. I wish it will get a panoramic roof.
Center console seems dated. Not sure why it doesn't mirror the center consoles in the TX or GX.
Yes black it out
All it needs is massaging seats ,& rear wiper tucked away !! I prefer the small sunroof as well
By displacement this car actually has a 3.4 v6 twin turbo but Lexus for some reason calls it a 3.5. Great review as always.
They have changed it to 3.4 a few months ago
Nobody talks about reliability between BMW, MB and Lexus, but if it's a Hyundai, KIA and Toyota, these clowns talk about reliability. My vote goes to BMW. Lexus ain't up to par with BMW.
@anotheruser5654 no asked about Hyundai or kia … tons of recalls on em sorry bud
@anotheruser5654 my bad was talking to the original poser, didn’t mean to tag you … I agree 💯 with you nothing compares to Toyota or Honda in reliability
@anotheruser5654 Not with recalls like fire and transmission blowing out. Definitely not reliable. Quit being a fanboy.
@@SME5724 Like what recalls? Toyota got tons of recalls more than Hyundai and KIA which is a fact.
@@SME5724 quick to troll? Man you toyota fanboys are highly triggered by protecting trash like this.
