In Dubai every teenager to older people wants own a Lexus LS 430 and even though locals have more expensive and luxury cars they roll around in LS430. Every next car to a house in Fujairah state of UAE is a Lexus LS430 even after 20 years.
I currently own an '01 UL and the radar adaptive cruise is in full working order. To put it lightly, the system was WAY ahead of its time. A car merges in front of me? No problem, the car will slow itself down all the way to about 30 mph. The car in front of me speeds up? LS430 shoots right back up to cruising speed which can be set all the way to 85mph. You can cruise on an express way with medium traffic and never have to touch a pedal, its absolutely incredible.
@@unokim5452 yup! I wish I hadn’t discovered this vehicle so soon because now every other car I will ever own will feel mediocre at best in comparison lol
@@Triple259772 no it’s not that good like modern adaptive cruise control. The car will beep at me if the person in front of me is REALLY slowing down and I’ll have to take over. The car will only slow down so much from the initial set cruise speed.
love my 2001 UL. I've had it a bit over 1 year now. it even came with aftermarket air suspension :) I'm always driving to different places because of work (construction), and this is the perfect daily to do just that. comfortable, quiet, nice interior, runs strong and has good pull for being a 20y/o car...and it looks nice. what more could you want
Pretty amazing how much tech this car had for its time period. I also definitely recognize the area you filmed in was Plainfield, IL. But great review, and definitely very thorough and detailed!
@@da9teg285 good way to get into the brand!! I did the same. Came from a Toyota Celica then into a 97 LS400 with 115k and it was better in every way. It was totaled last year by a kid without a license who pulled out in front of me. Now I have the IS250 in my profile picture and it's hella good to me but I just miss the big boaty ass seats and the comfy suspension. And can't forget the torque of the v8 that I don't get out of my IS. Long story short never get rid of that car man !!
@@joshc9846 I don't plan on getting rid of her, and could honestly see myself picking up another one. I'd also still love to own a 1st gen ls400, but thats what friends are for. As a group we have damn near every lexus model from the mid 90s to the mid 00s
Here in 2022, as a buyer. The resounding support and love of this car in the comments of your video just highlight the buyers confidence I have for an excellent purchase. Great review to be fair. Very concise and meticulous. Regards.
Great review. This really is a world-class sedan that showcases Toyota’s perfectionist mindset. It’s undeniable while MANY have thrown the monicker, “greatest car ever built.”
I seriously love my 2003 Ls430 , the way it handles for a vehicle of its size , the quality build of the vehicle and features and the fact that it has aged so well with no issues mechanical etc , I also love the fact that I pretty much had the vehicle given to me as I paid $2,650 for it it was elderly owned by a Japanese gentleman and meticulously taken care of, the leather etc looks like a brand new vehicle still, the only small thing that doesn't work is the button on the trunk but it still opens from the key fob and the button pop on the dash , Toyota/Lexus made an amazing vehicle for it's time that still looks great today. Great review by the way thanks for making it.
There's one for $8700 with 59k miles and I'm legit thinking about looking at it. I drive a 2013 Ford Focus SE with a manual but it just doesn't have the greatest power as far as passing and it's starting to fall apart. The LS430 looks beautiful and it seems to do really well in snow with snow tires, even better than my Focus. And the fact you can increase ground clearance makes it much easier.
Great coverage. FYI rear Seat massagers have a continuously variable switch. Oscillating vents. They are controlled according to the temperature set independently on the driver side and the passenger side They can change the degree of oscillation corresponding to the different set temperatures for each front seat passenger. For example, if I want warm for the driver and the passenger wants cold air, it will only isolate the warm air on my side without a full sleep. Similarly only isolating the cold air on the passenger side. When you equalize the temperatures, the vents will get a full sweep, side to side synchronistically. Much more sophisticated than most people realize. The system is so good that you can put out 90° on the driver side on the lower level foot well and side window upper ven for driver and then 60° on the passenger side upper vents. Thats pretty nifty. My Benz only suggested a 5* variation. If you set it in bi-mode, feet and cabin vents, it will send the heat to the warmer side lower level and one window vent. The cooler side, upper vents only, one Center and one window. In the U.P. Specked version(ultra premium luxury level) an independent rear seat controls system is manipulable as well with roof side window vent for A/C Remember the rear seat console has heat A/C controls and electric seat heater. Furthermore the rear window has the filtration fan integrated in the complex system. It has mixed A/C + filtration settings up front also. Had a 400, own a 2001 LS 430 UP and a 460, L awd, 2010. Executive package without seat dividers console, rare specifications, has a TV between rear seats, integrated on to the front Console. DVD. Hooked on RUclips 15 years. Never have encountered anyone who truly conceptualize the system. I dint explain it all for the 430. My 460 has 3k pages of owners manuals. I don’t think I’ll ever master it. Ugh. Lol. But it turn me on knowing the potential.
Great review!! I own this same car. Changed the timing belt at 101,000. I'm at 135,000 5 years later. I want something else but this car spoiled me. Can't think of a reason to replace it.
Don’t replace it! After Staye Farm totaled my 02 LS for a minor scrape? I went with a 2010 GS 350 AWD 98k miles. I poured a bunch of $ into it to bring it up too at as the previous owner didn’t bother to care of his car. My GS now has 103k miles and runs and performs like a CHAMP. No leaks, squeaks, or creaks. But here’s the thing the GS is smaller on the inside and the trunk space is minimal. It’s a sporty car but kind of. Arrow in the cabin. I chose the GS because I already owned my 02 from 2008-2023. But after a year of owning and fixing up my GS, I realized that there is NOHING compared to the LS 430 amenities, engine and luxury comfort. I am selling my GS 350 and hopefully the new owner will enjoy it more than me. She’s turn key! So don’t replace your LS unless you get another LS 430 either 2001-2003 or 2004-2006! Word!
Awesome job explaining the LS 430, but the one feature no one talks about are the puddle light features ( you know the lights under both rearview outside mirrors ). I own a 2001 LS 430 also and I love it.
Honestly man, saw this video a few months ago, and remembered you and have been looking for your channel for the past 30 minutes. Remembered when I saw you with the LS 430 video and now I found your RUclips channel again I’m a RUclipsr myself and I love the way you review cars, I’m subscribed and I’m taking notes… good job my man
Except for the year (my car is an 03) it looks identical. My LS430 has 50K on the clock. There is not a mark on the exterior or interior. What amazes about the LS430 that even though my car is 18 years old it still holds up very well in regard to technology. The interior of my LS430 has the interior upgrade KKG W/Semi Aniline Leather. On top of the Ultra luxury package it cost over two grand more. I think the LS430 is one of the best cars ever made regardless of price. If you find one buy it. Don't let high mileage scare you away. Just make sure that you get maintenance records. Good video by the way. Cheers.
my G, The level of quality you bring to this video is amazing, from the car to camera work to angels and editing its all amazing. Thank you for the most satisfying videos on RUclips
Great video..the best one I've watched for this car..Im sold and the money these days what a great timeless car..I'm sold and it is not platic,,its just classic.
I Own This Exact Car In Green! Only Thing I’ve Had To Replace Is Control Arms & O2 Sensor. My Daughter Loves The Massage Seats Lol. Only Has 108k My Dad Still Owns His 94 LS400 He Bought In 1995! Has Only 83k!
My biggest concern with buying an ultra luxury is the stock radio. It’s garbage so it’s a good relief that after market radios can have the software for the climate controls
The 6-speed in the 04-06 is actually the stronger of the two transmissions. It tends to get a bad rap because it doesn't have a dipstick, which makes drain and fills a little less user-friendly, but it's not too bad of a procedure to do.
Great review! Great car! Looking at used Mercs and now Lexus. This is definitely a top of the list car now! (sidenote: the audio is Mark Levinson-the L is part of the M)
Great car! Lexus makes quality stuff. I have a small tiny Lexus. A 2008 Lexus IS250. Still runs great and super reliable. My parents however have the generation of LS after this one. The LS460. What a lovely car that is also. Have you had the chance to review the model after this, the LS460?
been really interested in your content, i first found out about it from the 05 scion xb stock video. this video and last video has been great, wish you the best
Same here! My Mark Levinson Amp packed in a year ago, but a specialist repairer in Scotland fixed it. The CD stacker has now packed in. The LS430 is very reliable, but the sound system is somewhat weak. Love the car though.
The Mark Levinson amp and subwoofer is a known defect of the LS 430. And to think when they were brand new, the Mark Levinson upgraded stereo cost the perspective buyer $5K extra Mark Levinson himself should’ve been ashamed to charge that kind of over inflated money for Mobile Stereo system and the amp and the sub tend to blow
Teslas are tech heavy, but their tech and body reliability is questionable at best. Get any of the LS models in your budget, you won't go wrong with them.
Have you done a review of an LS460L. I have an 2014 ls460l and would be interested in your thoughts. I kind of regret not getting an LS 430 at half the price.
@@Mabeylater293 most owners feel this way. They say "different" but not surprising. It's decently documented on the forums as well. I didn't really enjoy my 430 until about 3 years of ownership.
I like the ls430 but I’m preferential to the F sport. The luxo boxes are nice but it’s a little sedate. I like the radar option which my ls460f doesn’t have. I missed that and lane assist from my Infiniti I had. The dependability of the Infiniti was the reason I went back to Lexus. I had GS450H at one point. I’ll prob go to the LC500 when those get older. I stay away from turbo 6 cylinder. Bad decision for Lexus to convert the LS to that engine. My two cents
its timeless bc even today it looks amazing and people still like it. not bc its a box 20 years later. i love the car but yeah. the ls400 is timeless 430/460 loss the edge
The only negative I find (and my wife also) is that after 15 - 20 minutes the seat bottoms literally become insufferable PITAs. IDK what the solution is; is it reupholstery or replacement with something like Recaro? And would replacements even interface with Lexus electronics?
Thank you for the review. Could Paul, the owner, get the radar adaptive unit fixed from a local mechanic rather than spend $2000 to have the Lexus dealership fix it?

I missed that and lane assist from my Infiniti I had. The dependability of the Infiniti was the reason I went back to Lexus. I had GS450H at one point. I’ll prob go to the LC500 when those get older. I stay away from turbo 6 cylinder. Bad decision for Lexus to convert the LS to that engine. My two cents
I only wish I bought my sooner
its timeless bc even today it looks amazing and people still like it. not bc its a box 20 years later. i love the car but yeah. the ls400 is timeless 430/460 loss the edge
It's a beautiful vehicle at 20 years old.
These timing belts can go over 200k miles easy
I agree with you 100%,
Very Cool Car!!
Holy shit this car is incredible
Some tips: the volume on your speaking its super loud on the entry clip
The only negative I find (and my wife also) is that after 15 - 20 minutes the seat bottoms literally become insufferable PITAs. IDK what the solution is; is it reupholstery or replacement with something like Recaro? And would replacements even interface with Lexus electronics?

i want one of those...
Enjoyed the review. You might want to avoid saying "Now" at the top of so many sentences. It wears on the viewer.
I think I found a possible replacement for our 07 Toyota Avalon limited if I ever decided to replace it 😊 I doubt that I will but if i did
What brand and model of replacement touchscreen does your LS430 have?

Awesome car!
Mark Evinson speakers? Never heard of them, must be a new brand 😄

Thank you for the review. Could Paul, the owner, get the radar adaptive unit fixed from a local mechanic rather than spend $2000 to have the Lexus dealership fix it?
