One of the best luxury autos you can drive .

The most beautiful car I have ever owned. The color is Deep Brown and it stands out better than any car on the road. It is the most trouble free car I have ever owned.

The Lexus LS460 is the best car on the road!

This is my second LS Series vehicle from Lexus. No doubt, the best sedan in existence! The only cars I want to drive!

Best car I have ever owned.

Even after 8 years the car drives and handles better then most new vehicles. Had a problem with the rubber seal on the moonroof going requiring the whole moonroof being replaced. The replacement though was redesigned such that if the seal goes again it is now replaceable. Otherwise maintenance and repairs have been minimal.

Drives and handles like a dream

As I recall, consumer reports gave the 2009 LS460 a perfect score in all categories which is why I bought one. I was shocked to read the troubles the guy from Canada had with his used Lexus purchase. I would advise anybody to have a mechanic check out a used car before buying it. I put more than 50,000 Mi on mine, and it still runs and looks brand new to this day. Hands down... the very best car I've ever owned or driven. Ask anyone who owns one, better yet...drive one yourself, I guarantee you will buy one. One caution: If you like to floor the accelerator, this car will get you into trouble FAST!

Best Luxury Sedan

A luxury sedan is supposed to be just that. Smooth, not too sporty , comfortable and reliable. The 460 LS is the best at all of those criteria.

Best Passenger Car I've Ever Driven

I'm into Year 2 of my romance with the Lexus LS460. Flat out it's the best driving and riding car I've ever owned. Luxury appointments are countless. The car was designed with intelligence unsurpassed in the auto world down to doors that lock into place on their own, electronic trunk and reclining rear seats and separate air and sound system. It's fast, responsive and like a lion, but quiet as a mouse. My one knock is driving in the snow; it can be a tough go and the wheels slip more than usual on ice because the engine is so powerful. Otherwise, it's the perfect car, despite the price.
