SMauler9 That's not right. If the word ends in an s because it's plural, you would put the apostrophe after the word. However, if it's singular, you add the extra "s" regardless.
My father owned one of these and as he walked by while I was watching this he stopped, standing at the half opened door and started mumbling: "That was a great car... Such a great car. The best I've ever had."
My first car was a 92 Lexus LS400. Bought it in 2005 after I graduated high school. It was a 1 owner with 180k miles and I paid $3000 cash for it . My dad was pissed for buying such high mileage car. I proved him wrong. These cars are indestructible. I sold mine at 260k miles in 2012 because I wanted a newer car. I regret it and should have kept it. It was still running strong. As longs as you keep up with the regular maintenance ; oil changes, tune ups, routine fluid changes, etc--you can expect these to run forever. I have many memories with my LS400... Best road trip car ever!
You should look up the 2007 Toyota Tundra. Toyota Corp was so impressed with truck that Toyota gave the owner a NEW Tundra for FREE. Yes the Toyota engineers was SHOCKED to see it still running good still.
I heard something like the parts they used came from an Aeronautical parts manufacturer. Mines is around 280k miles still holding up strong against Chicago winters. Whatever they used they shouldn't deviate from that it.
Luchador EMC I’ve owned mine for like 4 months now I got a 93 for 1900 with only 88k miles I’ve drove it across the us with no problem. It funny my dad was super pissed to bc the car looks like complete shit bc the Kansas sun cooked it. But ya went from regretting buying it to now I wanna do a full build.
Pure example of over engineering.. i miss these days when manufacturers used to compete for the most reliable car .. now a days you are lucky if the car lives for 8 years with no catastrophic issues..
ehhh...Lexus is still top notch. My dad drives his 2013 Lexus ES350 about 40,000 miles a year and has had done absolutely nothing but changed the oil...otherwise yeah I agree
@@OffGridInvestor yeah but in America a car is broken and useless if the stitching looks bad. Then we pick them up as beaters and drive them with rusted out floorboards and add water from the hose to stop it from overheating because it's cheaper than a head gasket.
Loved driving my uncle's LS400 felt like I was a baller. Of course his is still like brand new since he babies the damn car. Doesnt even have 100k miles on it yet. It's a '97.
Lexus started out like every brand trying to firmly establish itself into a new market. It was Mercedes in the 70s. Now its the koreans doing the same thing, while Lexus is getting too comfortable alongside the Germans.
"... it rides like a cloud that has been doing a lot of crunches..." Man, I really love your metaphors, they make everything you describe about a car seem so visible and vivid as if you´re sitting in it while watching the review ...
It's so accurate too. You feel the bump, sorta.. but not in your back. However, the car doesn't bounce up and down, it basically just skips over it. You don't bounce up and down for 30 yards to absorb the bumps like you do in other land yachts.
After 5 years of buying their cars during 2000-2012: BMW - Sorry, not sorry, its your fault that our cars are faulty. LEXUS - Thank you very much. JAGUAR - Huh, suprised you actually bought one. Mercedes-Benz - Fuck you very much. Porsche - Here is Cayenne, our version of polished VW turd, buy it so we can make the most dependable sports cars. ACURA - Forget sporty looking, decently lightweight TL, here's an alien spaceship with a humongous shield in place of a grille. Also, RL, RLX INFINITI - Fuck the car that made us not go bankrupt that is G35 with stickshift. Cadillac (non-V) - LOL Lincoln - LMAO Chrysler - Please kill me ASAP
saw a user comment one day about how a porsche cayenne came into the garage with an off-road build - had a spotlight and everything else that off roaders usually install on 4WDs. Guy wished he took a photo lol.
I remember when that car first came out.....it was the Japanese shot heard 'round the world. The public (and even many car reviewers) didn't know how to take the car at first....the term "Japanese luxury" wasn't around yet, so they didn't really know what to expect. Word got out fast, though. At any rate, I'm glad you decided to do another review of Matt Farah's Million Mile Lexus.
The center stack is definitely dates it straight into the 90's, but it still looks ahead of its time. The outside has a certain timeless look to it, that Lexus is now famous for. If you told me it was a '98, I'd believe you. If you swapped out the lights for LED brakelamps and projector headlamps, and replaced the grille, you could convince me it was a 2008.
I thought this was one of the best reviews yet. I enjoyed hearing a little of the history of Lexus as well as this particular car. I remembers neighbor having one and thinking to myself wow, I hope to someday own a car like that. I also remember it never seemed to age and even today looks only like a car maybe half its age.
I own a 97 lexus es300, and the 90s Lexus's are wonderful cars. You can't help but love to drive them, whether you're going fast or just cruising, it's a beautiful ride.
Don't hesitate to buy one of these, even if it looks beat up. I almost sold mine, and glad I didn't. Cosmetics can be corrected. If Tranny is good, and engine not leaking, buy it and make the needed repairs yourself. Especially if it mostly original and hasn't been modified unwisely. 280K miles is nothing for these FAA rated engines. Only use DENSO replacement parts. These have 4 mufflers and two CATs. The Tranny is the same one used in the trucks, the 3 inch thick shop manual says they designed tranny to handle 800hp. I have 280K miles w/ original exhaust system. No check engine light, but wasn't always that way. Original Struts/springs. Nothing rides better. Will have to fix the speakers one of these days, to enjoy that Nakamichi cassette / disk changer. The rear seat can comfortably carry three large people and every door has a cigarette lighter. If you get T-boned, you probably can still drive it, and probably will survive with minimal injury. I saw one of these side damaged from sliding into a telephone pole. The guy was still driving it. I was super impressed that the damage wasn't severe. After 27 years and not being garaged, the paint is faded but still holding up. The axle CV boots are not torn, I sprayed with ATP and put all synthetic fluids & Toyota red coolant I am probably the 4th owner. No problem this car can take real beating and can tolerate some neglect. Had to replace strut mounts only (not the struts/springs), upper control arms and most of the front end stuff. The rack & pinion may give leak problems..they can be chronic. Still leaking on driver side after replacing the rack assembly twice.
Cant believe this thing has a million miles, I wonder how many miles matt drove for himself in this specific lexus that you were so kind as to review for us.
Matt's was a 1996 2nd generation with 800,000+ miles on it when he bought it. In order to get it to the million mile goal, Matt enlisted friends and paid a few to drive around a track all day. Mostly, it was eager volunteers who manned the helm. Otherwise, Matt might have pooped-out before the car did, which is what my 1997 is doing - outlasting three of us octogenarians. Both previous owners died and my Lexus was sold by their estates. I'll do the same, giving my favorite charity the old road anvil, when I fail to turn-over one day.
I saw a 93 with 50,000 original Km on it posted on Kijiji (Canada's version of Craigslist). the next day the ad was taken down which disappointed me since I was considering buying it. the day after that my cousin rolls up in the same car as in the ad and says she bought it...at least someone I know has one of my dream cars
I managed to pick up a 93 with 143,000km on it. Major maintenance was neglected, but the parts for the timing belt and water pump were 300 dollars on RockAuto. Got it up to date and it barely feels 23 years old.
I recently drove my brothers type 2 Lexus LS400, it's probably the nicest driving car I've driven. So smooth, a decent amount of power, and pretty decent handling. It's in rough shape but it still runs great.
I work as a technician at a lexus dealer and the first time I got in one of these and started the engine i did think the engine turned over (its that smooth), and I drive new lexus everyday!!! the engine in that car is a complete and udder MASTERPIECE. the smoothest engine I have ever felt. and when you get out of that after a drive, it feels like getting up from your couch. You just seem well rested.
I owned a 93 LS400 as a daily for 22 years. Just sold it 6 months ago and outside of fluids and tires it never had an issue. I’ve owned several of the German marquees sedans and sports cars as a comparison and the LS400 was the best engineered thing I’ve ever owned. Ran like a new car till the day I sold it. Nuts.
One thing that Lexus really concentrated on was the experience at the dealership. They really tried to make their customers feel special and well taken care of. That dealership experience is what cemented brand loyalty for a lot of Lexus owners.
Yay Wheels shoutout! But then again their COTY can be a bit bullshit at times... I think it was a BMW i3 this year... Hold on... Did that Mercedes just overtake... In the shoulder? So let me get this straight, this *is* Matt Farah's million mile Lexus?
Those things might be built to a ridiculous standard, but that example has been maintained impeccably. If I could have found one of those where the interior hadn't been utterly destroyed then I probably would have gotten one as my first car. I mean, I was looking at a wide variety of possible car models for my first car and a Lexus was definitely on the list. A shame that most of the people in my area that bought them didn't actually have the class necessary to maintain them. Loads of shredded leather, peeling faux wood, scratched up plastics, and burnt carpets. The same was true of basically every single "luxury" car I looked at. Lincoln LS, Lexus SC300 and SC430, Jaguar S-type and X-type. Didn't seem to matter, the people who owned it before had no real class and just destroyed the interior by treating it the same as they would a cheap economy car by never taking care of it and acting like they were disposable. I ended up with a base model Mk.4 Golf instead because time ran out and the options weren't getting any better. Didn't help any that Cash-4-Clunkers also happened around that same time and wiped out so many good used cars. I'll probably hold that grudge against the government until I fucking die.
God, that front license plate is driving me nuts. For the love of fucking god, please put that thing in the middle where it belongs! Looking at it is like nails on a chalkboard.
he probably dosnt want to drill holes in his bumper. Mines a 97 and it's never had a front lisence plate and probably never will because I'm not going to zip tie it..
I bought a 01 LS430 with 129K on it and was very well taken care of. It's a wonderful car and it handles great with the "sport suspension" option on factory chrome 17" wheels. It's not the VIP model but it's everything I need.
A loss leader has nothing to do with the competition. What other people sell their products for is irrelevant. The only thing that matters, is that you are selling your product for less than it costs to produce it in an effort to get your customers to buy your other products (that you make a profit on.) Department stores do this all of the time with small items that they do not lose much money on. If you go into the store to get the great deal on the $10 item that cost $13 to produce, then while you are there buy the $50 item that has a large markup, the store profits from your visit.
Or electronic stores sell all the big ticket electronics at a loss but make up the price in company payouts for selling a certain amount of products for a brand, and also making money on the accessories or services they sell with the products.
That is one clean car. The engine bay looked like it could have been from a new car because it was so clean! Same with the interior and the rest of the car!! Very well looked after, thats for sure. Its really great to see!
I bought one of these to Pro Street not long after it came out. I assembled a Pro Stock chassis, rear-end and roll cage from a Ford Thunderbird, the DOHC 32-valve V-8 and transmission from the Corvette ZR1. A co-worker helped assemble the front-end to flip up and then he painted and buffed out multiple coats of candy-apple red and clear-coat paint on the body. It was the most fun Lexus LS 400 I ever owned. Then, I dunno, for some reason a no-longer-friend from back then started pirating pieces off it to use on his model car kits and I never got to finish my project!
I'm the third bad owner. The first two died and car passed to me in an estate sale. I haven't checked the oil in two years. There's no fluid leaks after 24 years and 181,000+ miles. Bad!

I remember when that car first came out.....it was the Japanese shot heard 'round the world. The public (and even many car reviewers) didn't know how to take the car at first....the term "Japanese luxury" wasn't around yet, so they didn't really know what to expect. Word got out fast, though.
At any rate, I'm glad you decided to do another review of Matt Farah's Million Mile Lexus.

Such an awesome car. 149 miles an hour!!! That's 240kmh even and it's fast even by today's standards. Definitely autobahn worthy! Even 26 years later!
if your standart is a third gen skoda octavia with the 1.6 liter diesel (i managed to hit 215 in one of those) , then yes, its very fast

Toyota did a good job designing that car. For a 1990, it looks more like a 1999.
Celso Vera nope
I think it needs to be a bit more curvy for it to look like '99.
I would go as far to say it could pass as a 03-04 Benz
Everything about it was pretty much cutting edge, without cutting into reliability.
Its amazing that they were designing this in the early 1980s, it truly looks modern considering that.
That was a good one. My favorite videos you guys do are the ones where I walk away feeling like I learned something.

The person directly above me doesn't know what sarcasm is. And also didn't watch the video.
Omg, I was about to comment this...I just couldn't help myself... thank god you said it first!
Nick Darlington NO. BAD BOY. *slap*
Those things might be built to a ridiculous standard, but that example has been maintained impeccably. If I could have found one of those where the interior hadn't been utterly destroyed then I probably would have gotten one as my first car. I mean, I was looking at a wide variety of possible car models for my first car and a Lexus was definitely on the list. A shame that most of the people in my area that bought them didn't actually have the class necessary to maintain them. Loads of shredded leather, peeling faux wood, scratched up plastics, and burnt carpets. The same was true of basically every single "luxury" car I looked at. Lincoln LS, Lexus SC300 and SC430, Jaguar S-type and X-type. Didn't seem to matter, the people who owned it before had no real class and just destroyed the interior by treating it the same as they would a cheap economy car by never taking care of it and acting like they were disposable. I ended up with a base model Mk.4 Golf instead because time ran out and the options weren't getting any better. Didn't help any that Cash-4-Clunkers also happened around that same time and wiped out so many good used cars. I'll probably hold that grudge against the government until I fucking die.
Please do a review on a mountain goat

I'm definitely going to buy one of these. Definitely a Series 1. Back when the 1UZ was a non-interference engine.
Fantastic vid. Informative, compelling and with great humour. Thanks for posting....:)
But is this Matt Farah's Million Mile Lexus?

This is not Matt Farah's Million-Mile Lexus
RegularCars no way dude !! it looks the same dude
Are you Squidward now? It's okay take your time.
LOVE mine. '93 and it just turned 124K. Clean as hell too. Rides like a new car.
For a million miles, this car looks quite good.
This is not Matt farah's million mile lexus

Yeah my Elementary School principal once gave a ride to a student in our school and told him “You know, you want ever be able to afford this.”
God, that front license plate is driving me nuts. For the love of fucking god, please put that thing in the middle where it belongs! Looking at it is like nails on a chalkboard.
Right? And at that it's blocking more airflow than it's required spot.
Leif Giering I think it's a remote type license plate, there is a remote in which you can fold in the license plate, look it up.
Haloid Android Looks more like he just zip tied it down there.
Looks edgy..
he probably dosnt want to drill holes in his bumper. Mines a 97 and it's never had a front lisence plate and probably never will because I'm not going to zip tie it..
my 98 is the best car i could have ever had... absolutely perfect
I love your videos. The way you deliver every topic is awesome!
Please review public transportation.
Stingray haha, nice one.
Your humour is so good 😀
I just got one and it’s amazing. Quietest car I’ve ever been in.
That car aged better than most
Omega most people I know
I just bought a 1990 with 235,000 miles..I drive a Lexus 😁
Is it Matt Farah's?
Recently bought a 91 celsior with only 60k miles. Love it
Its both amazing and sad that a SUB BRAND of Toyota outsells the ENTIRE NISSAN MOTOR CO.
Nissan lost its way bad.
I bought a 01 LS430 with 129K on it and was very well taken care of. It's a wonderful car and it handles great with the "sport suspension" option on factory chrome 17" wheels. It's not the VIP model but it's everything I need.

Cool video 😎 I just bought my 98' LS400 a few days ago 😀 soooooo smooth
A loss leader has nothing to do with the competition. What other people sell their products for is irrelevant. The only thing that matters, is that you are selling your product for less than it costs to produce it in an effort to get your customers to buy your other products (that you make a profit on.) Department stores do this all of the time with small items that they do not lose much money on. If you go into the store to get the great deal on the $10 item that cost $13 to produce, then while you are there buy the $50 item that has a large markup, the store profits from your visit.
Or electronic stores sell all the big ticket electronics at a loss but make up the price in company payouts for selling a certain amount of products for a brand, and also making money on the accessories or services they sell with the products.

If I'm not mistaken, another automotive example of a loss leader would be the Saturn Sky/Pontiac Solstice.
Henry Rieken How about a Yugo? Or the first gen Hyundai's to the US in 86? If any of them are still around. Love the reviews!
I cant believe you featured Matts million mile Lexus!! Beautiful car!!
This was my first car. I’d gladly give up my new car for a good running one of these
It's wild to think that one of these under 140k miles I'm decent condition is worth over $20k today
And by the early 90's you could find a stripper named "Lexus" at every "Gentlemen's Club"
i watched this review at 15
i now own an LS400 at 21
The Ultimate Warrior reference was the best.
That big guy from TheSmokingTire has one just like it. He bought it with 900,000 miles on it.
Wow I am surprised that that vacuum fluorescent display is actually still working. The one my friend had didn't. But the car was pretty sweet.
That is one clean car. The engine bay looked like it could have been from a new car because it was so clean! Same with the interior and the rest of the car!! Very well looked after, thats for sure. Its really great to see!
is this Matt Farah's million mile lexus?

Matt Joines Yes it is 100%
I have a 1996 Ls400...it’s sad to know that your car will outlive you
Put the plate in place.. just.. just do it.
When a Lexus is on the RUclips it becomes Matt's Million Mile Lexus.
exactly what genesis is doing now
Dang, that interior is so rich! Beautiful leather and materials. I love the Lexus of 20 years ago. Wouldn't think much of imports anymore.
Even Matt Farah's "Million Mile" Lexus isn't a Million Mile Lexus. (Its at 900k)
***** Full time pizza delivery!
He has to service the business accounts

Live 100 miles from work and don't change your car for 19years?.
I just bought one of these a few days ago, a 93 with 186k on the ODO. It drives beautifully and is surprisingly easy to work on.
Damn Matt Farah’s Million Mile Lexus....
Wish I could have driven it
When are you guys reviewing the SC300?
Is this Mile's Matt Lexus Million Farah ?
I bought one of these to Pro Street not long after it came out. I assembled a Pro Stock chassis, rear-end and roll cage from a Ford Thunderbird, the DOHC 32-valve V-8 and transmission from the Corvette ZR1. A co-worker helped assemble the front-end to flip up and then he painted and buffed out multiple coats of candy-apple red and clear-coat paint on the body. It was the most fun Lexus LS 400 I ever owned. Then, I dunno, for some reason a no-longer-friend from back then started pirating pieces off it to use on his model car kits and I never got to finish my project!
Look! It's Matt Farah's Million Mile Lexus!
Is that Matt Farrah’s million mile Lexus LS400?

"it was any wonder"
I always recommend Lexus when people ask which used car to buy. They're cheap and survive bad owners better than a lot of cars.
I'm the third bad owner. The first two died and car passed to me in an estate sale. I haven't checked the oil in two years. There's no fluid leaks after 24 years and 181,000+ miles. Bad!
I'm digging the freestyles at the beginning of every vid lol I've watched this from day one... can you do a 2006 Chrysler Town and country?
