Definetly a super undderated car deserves more light but then again something about it being a hidden gem is super nice knowin not many peopl know the potential and reliabilty in these cars on my way to pick mine up next month tryin to get the UL version but will settle with lower spec good video 💪🏽
Congrats & excellent info. As a GX & first gen Tundra owner, I’m well aware of how overbuilt & refined these V8s are. Currently looking at a base 02 in my area. Enjoy the new ride!
Nice info, I believe that you omitted the "Touring" Package though. I have heard of a "Modern Luxury" package but wonder if it isn't the same as the Mark Levinson package.
What tires came from the factory on the LS 430's? I have heard that Michelin tires are great on the LS 430 but when I bought mine it had Continental 18 inch tires but I don't think that is what came from the factory in 2006.
The info about the laser cruise location is incorrect. The laser unit sat down on the lower grill opening, inboard from the right hand foglight. What you are talking about when referring to the grill insert where the Lexus badge sits, is the later radar cruise unit that is the norm today. This new radar system only came in the later facelift version which introduced -pre-collision safety.
This car is timeless if you buy one without navigation screen. Does anyone know if all the models without navigation are all the same or was there still upgrades that could be made without navigation?
I have a 2002 Custom Luxury with Mark Levinson and without Navigation. It has the Crystal Parchment paint (I do get tired of saying "No, it isn't white"), Ecru wood and all other CL appointments. Just added a '99 LX 470 to the fleet and the LS and LX make a very handsome pair in the driveway.
12/10 video great information and delivery.
Excellent breakdown of information. I’ve had my 2005 LS430 CL for 9 months now and it’s probably the best sedan I’ve ever owned.
Hey Marco. I’m looking for an 05 or 06. What is the least amount of miles can you advise me to get?! Thanks!!

thanks, I was confused about this. I imagine that PCS was always included on radar equipped models?

REVIEW LEXUS GS
What gen?
@@jjvdz 1998 - 2005 second generation
@@maliknolan5711 got it
This would be great. Got my second one few weeks ago. First was a 98 300. 2. a 01 430.
Just an FYI,... There is no "g" in the word Levinson 😀
When did he spell it out ?
😂 he was mispronouncing it as if it was spelled with a "g"😀 (Levingson) no biggie,.. our schools aren't what they used to be!! M'erica!
@@johnjackson5144 Thank God you spent the time to point that out. The world stopped turning when that happened and you just saved planet earth!
It is unfortunate that in a beautiful very informative video this is what you choose to focus on. Hmm ...
