Best reliability

looks classic but very comfortable, safe, good mileage, reliable car ever. You will not regret it. It runs to 400,000 miles and maintenance is very low if you purchase part and fix with local mechanic.

Excellent car

I bought a 2002 Lexus LS 430 as a daily driver because I was putting too many miles on my Rolls-Royce. I have to say the Lexus is every bit as nice as my Rolls-Royce, maybe even a better car. The car is powerful, quiet and a pleasure to drive.

Long lasting car

This LS430 is now 16 years old and has been paid off for a LONG time. The only money we put into it is gas, oil, brakes and tires; and the occasional repair. Last spring was $4000, but before that was 8 years ago.

Drives great and smooth ride

To be a 2001 this car rides so smooth and like a brand new car if not better! This car needs some TLC for the right owner.

Best Value for Luxury and Reliability

Best large luxury sedan I've ever owned. With a pre-owned BMW, Audi or Mercedes you need to have a warranty or deep repair budget - not to mention a lot of patience for all the neat gadgets or interior bits randomly failing or falling apart. Not so with the LS430. It will be the most comfortable ride well into 300k-mile territory with just basic maintenance. Its RWD nature is nothing to be worried about in the winter either as long as you put the best quality all-season tires on it or any basic snow tire.

Most comfortable car I have ever owned

This car was by far the best car I have ever owned. It is comfortable as well as pretty economical for a V8. A little pricey to fix but not much went wrong.......

Very Smooth Great Running Vehicle!

This is one of the Top Of The Line models back in 2002, the car is fully loaded with all bells and whistles, it drives so smooth and quiet! Very good quality, the leather interior still has no cracks and I've owned this vehicle for almost 15 years!
