10 REASONS I LOVE THE LS400!

[@LukeSevenski]

I’m a simple man. I see a new ls400 video, I hit like.

[@dfitzwm]

Thank you lmaooo

[@Will-fr5du]

Damnit man, i was looking at is300s for a new daily but now youve got me looking at ls400s lmao. They are a lot cheaper than the is300 too

[@dfitzwm]

Like I said either in this video or tomorrow’s my friend Ryan got one for 4000 with 100,000 miles on it and if you take care of it’s got 500,000 miles easy, they do go through some gas for a daily but overall it’s a great car

[@youngfeo]

Fitz Miller I just got one last week for 5 stacks, with 84k miles on it. Only had one owner and it had all the maintenance paperwork

[@szymusu]

that's cause is300s have 2jz

[@WFGFanatic]

They are not cheaper. The first year of owning mine, I spent a solid $10,000 just to maintain it. I'm hoping I don't run into more problems. I highly doubt anything close to that resembles the cheaper maintence costs of the newer, smaller, IS 300.

[@jakemaxton1714]

I know Im pretty randomly asking but does anyone know of a good place to stream new tv shows online ?

[@mikebanks4935]

The quality of the sound suppression inside the LS 400 compares favorably with armored passenger cars that use Kevlar, ballistic glass and other materials for armoring, which also deaden sound.

[@dfitzwm]

exactly they are top tier for srue

[@Explicnt]

Love my 97'. Only 99k on the clock, best first car I could've asked for

[@dfitzwm]

damn bro thats awesome, worst part is the gas mileage but thats worth it

[@kylecassidento6748]

Just picked myself up one. Gotta say you are right on the best first car part also

[@RtistiqSkubie]

It's actually getting very hard to find OEM parts & trust me you want those parts for pure performance & comfort. I'm about get all uppers & lowers, swap the rear sway for a 98-00 sway (larger) & do a EGR delete since mine cracked. This is my second one. My next will be a 06 430.

[@dfitzwm]

hell yeah

[@davidmwood560]

Not so bad in the UK; about 95% of OEM parts are available. Not cheap of course, but the fact that they're there is a bonus

[@HurtenAlbertan]

In canada it’s cheaper to import a celsior then to buy an ls400🥺

I got an ls today and was suppose to buy a c32 amg and I was having second thoughts, but after this video I'm going to be more focused in it.

i would 100% keep going with the ls its such a good car

[@yaboirico5221]

the highest optioned Toyota Celsior is actually more luxurious than the LS400, they had electronic parking poles/ flag poles, power folding side mirrors, power rear curtains, lace seat covers, a button to prioritize HVAC for the rear ovcupants, super soft cloth seats, etc. etc. which wasnt even available in the US.

[@dfitzwm]

hell yeah that sounds amazing

I bought a 1990 LS400 with 84k on the odo in July 1999. I drove it for 120k more trouble-free miles. It still didn't use any oil or had a squeak or rattle when I had to sell it to my Lexus service adviser for $1.5k - a steal of a deal for him. I just didn't need it any more, but I miss it. >>>> I loved your review.

[@dfitzwm]

Damn dude you should get another, sucks you sold it but a celsior would be sick

[@gmoritz71last52]

@@dfitzwm I sold the LS due to the fact that my life changed and it was too much ( too good of a ) car. Someone stole my ID and made me a three-time felon so I couldn't get a job ( ANY job ). The police and DA were fine with that - as long as they got to keep my name and the "real" felon's name together on my record. Now ask me why I hate the police . . . As a felon, I don't "deserve", a Lexus. It's funny how life gets in the way of life.

[@christianross2540]

Tony Hetu shit I wish I could get a celsior. There’s one 45 minutes from me with 50km I believe for 11.5k. The only GREAT deal I’ve found for an ls400 was like 3 hours or so from me. They want 3500 for the car and it has 122k miles which is great.

[@tonyhetu]

Christian Ross I picked my celsior up for 7.5k with 50 k miles my Instagram is tonyhetu if you’d like to see. Also I know the one your talking about it’s a little overpriced but really nice

[@jeremypearson6852]

Now is a terrible time to buy a car, new or used. The price for used cars has gone through the roof this year. Dealers have so little inventory on new cars they are having to mark up used cars to maintain profits. I don’t see this changing until possibly next year.

damn, there are some hot deals right now tho ready for a flip!

Even today I found maybe 30 nationwide through various websites with most examples being 4-8k... It's a 100k car in its prime days and the only Lexus out of its collection I see being a better car is the LFA. I think it's a modernization of a Chevy Belair, a classic car you can just keep driving, and want nothing else. That's how I feel at least

My 1997 has had two previous owners, the first and second owners died and their estates sold this car. They never did. I don't intend to sell my, either. Lexus could have given all three of us a Lifetime Guarantee and never had to cough up any money. Think about that! I haven't the least doubt my LS will outlast me, too.

[@davidmwood560]

The luxurious equivalent in Japan; their top-of-the-line car, is the Century; those things are amazing! The Celsior is just a slightly less well equipped LS400. Here in the UK, LS400's are starting to hit big money; upwards of £10,000 for a nice one. They can still be bought for under £2,000 though. Fuel costs make the LS cars a bit of a challenge as a daily driver. I currently run a 2006 model GS300, and it's a brilliant car in every way; and more economical than the LS cars. I get 40+ mpg on the open road at around 75 to 85 mph, and around 27 - 31 mpg in town. Last Saturday, I needed to overtake a line of 5 cars on an iut of town road; pulled 145mph with plenty left. I also have a 1998 LS400 which I'm "working" on. It now has deep red buttoned leather inside and is being prepared for paint at the moment. It will get 8 coats of a very deep black and 10 coats of laquer to finish. I deliberately haven't lowered it; simply because I can't improve on the Lexus ride, so why try. I've had a "trick" exhaust system built which can be switched from silent to straight through with the flip of a switch. No dark windows, but I've installed an electric rear blind an electric rear side blinds. Chrome Lexus wheels with white-wall tyres and that's it. I'll be publishing pictures later when the car's finished. I liked your review very much, honest and straightforward.
