    Welcome back everyone, today I give a POV drive and review of a 2016 Lexus LS460 with the 4.6L V8. It is a full size luxury sedan competing with the Mercedes S550, the BMW 7 Series, and the Audi A8. This is an excellent Japanese car for daily driving and overall luxury experience.

      I agree! It feels like you're stepping into a noise isolation chamber when you sit in it. You can really relax.

    I have a 2014 LS460. The car comes standard with 386 hp, not 360 hp. Around town and mostly town, I've been getting 14-15 mpg but on the fwy, more than 25 mpg, which is not at all bad. The car has very decent acceleration, and virtually nothing has needed to be fixed. Just fluid changes and basic upkeep and it just goes. Very quiet. The car holds 4 people extremely well and very comfortably. It's a really nice ride, and when picked up used in almost any year, with low milage, you can't go wrong. No I do not sell cars, I just like the LS460, as it is a very good car to own and drive comfortably.

      The AWD model as shown in this video makes 360hp and its because it produces peak torque lower in the rev range which helps with AWD. normally they are 386 hp with RWD.

      I got a 2013, ls460 awd, I believe that the awd actually does have closer to 365 hp while the rwd has the full 385 hp. I bought it and got a 3rd party warranty through endurance im glad I did bc the car had 74xxx miles when I bought it and I knew that issues would arise soon regardless of how well made the car was, after getting all 4 struts replaced for a $100 decidable, instead of the $2700 the shop would have charged me. Fantastic car all around, but I wouldn't get one without a warranty

      Not when you have to fix them. The 430s can be considered affordable but the 460s require a lot more (expensive) maintenance than the 430. If you're looking for an actual bargain look at a 2015 es 350. It's not an Ls but is is still very nice and you will be able to keep it nice without going broke.

      @@MSG685 true, no where near the experience of an ls though lol. I had the maintenance in mind. Control arms, brake actuator, mark Levinson amp, valley plate, list goes on. Gotta keep in mind these where close to 100k dollar cars at the time.

      And your going to pay to fix a $100k car. Honestly if you pick one up for 12k and you spend 15 to get it sorted you would have a great car for 27k. If you only have 12k get a Camry. @@Stonedanteater

    I just bought this car and it drives like a dream , my only complaint is that theres no where to rest your phone and the cup holders are very small and im coming from driving a pick truck for 9 years my Sierra had 6 huge cup holders in the front alone easily fit my Yeti and i had a spot for my cell phone and even a tablet ! I can barely stick a medium cup of coffee from McDonald's and im not exaggerating! Lol Im more of a truck guy I bought this to drive in the meantime the next Sierra model comes out and I only sold my truck cuz someone made me a big offer i couldn't turn down

    That is a nice review on a very nice car. One thing that would that would make it better is if you would have referred to all of the different items as "the", and not "your", it's proper English to say "the" it's improper English to call things that are not actually ours "yours" for obvious reasons.

    How much does a Lexus Ls460, the highest trim, cost?

    • @dablackbimmer
      @dablackbimmer  Před 6 měsíci +1

      The higher trim, the L, costs a little more than the regular 460. This one was had for just under $35k. So I’d guess around $40k used. MSRP on the L is $78k.

    I thought you stole my car, I had to check the garage. Silver AWD 2016 Black interior, soft close doors. But when you got to Apple Carplay, I don't have that. So I guess you didn't steal. Bought three years ago with 60,000 miles, runs great, no issues don't put many miles on, now has 70k miles. The only issue is at night with the black interior the car is really dark when you get in or out.

      That’s true, but the fourth generation (which is same gen as this LS) does not have the V8, aside from the GS-F. The second and third generation GS had the V8 with the third generation having this same V8.
