2018 Lexus LS 500 consumer reviews

This car's new design is refreshing and the executive package still has all the perks- chair massager (in all seats) relaxes you, the back seats recline even with a footrest for a comfortable VIP feel especially on long road trips, sun and moon roof gives you a feel for being outside without the noise, stereo has been upgraded to 2400 watts and a 3D sound system, twin turbo adds a nice boost to the engine, once you get used to the navigation system and learn all the components, it's pretty easy, there are so many options to this car that it takes some time to get used to. Everywhere you touch is soft material mostly made of leather is the wood trim is more beautiful than before. This is the type of luxury car that you can have in your family for a long time.

Again the run flat tires should never be on a luxury car. Also they changed the suspension system and it runs harder than my previous 430s and 460s. I am very disappointed. I dare Lexus to contact me as I never received an initial request for an opinion after I leased it.

This car can be gentle or sporty. There are a lot of legroom in the front and the back. 3.5 L engine with twin turbo delivers more than 400 hp.

The Mouse is nice, but waaaayyyyy too much work. I don't know who came up with this idea! The ride is nice but not nearly as smooth as the 2016 LS. It floated like a cloud. I am happy with the car, just a bit surprised that Lexus would not make a car that looks this good more user friendly. V-6 does everything you need it to do. gas mileage s great!

Upgraded from a 2015 LS460L to a 2018 LS500 Executive model which is our 4th LS and 6th Lexus in the family . The car is amazing and has a lot of tech in it. The drive is more sporty compared to the older LS model but it still has the Lexus smoothness. We noticed that the interior of the new LS500 is smaller than my older 2015 LS460L even though the car is an inch longer. It did take us a little while to get used to all the control options in the LS500 which was easier to get to on the older model. Overall, we are happy with the car and look forward to enjoying it for a while.

Bought the FSport. For a big sedan, it surprisingly handles really well. There is the turbo lag from a stop, but once it gets rolling, the twin turbos really accelerate hard and doesn’t seem to stop. The ride is not as floaty as some of the Cadillacs I’ve owned in the past. Also owning a Porsche Boxster comparing, the LS cornering is excellent. This is one of my favorite cars.

The dealer said people complain about the v8 is gone. I have had the 460 also with the v8 this is better power and gas . I love it . no regrets plus everyone don't have one.

This redesigned LS is our 3rd LS since Lexus introduced this automobile. Lexus has redesigned this car inside out with the best of materials and a totally new power train. I was hesitant about a v6 engine;nevertheless, within the first 60 seconds of the test drive I was amazed. The LS meets the desires of the speeding youth in me as well as the protective father I am. Over all this LS is simply amazing!

this car is over price and to me is just a luxury toyota to much wind noise the mouse pad to hard to handle worse car i have lease

Lexus should stop trying to make this a sport car, and stick to Luxury, I have owned a 01 LS 430 and currently own a 07 LS460 , both had a smoother ride than this LS 500, and the 07 LS 460 with the V8 actually gets better gas millage than the 6 in the 18 LS 500
