Fuck reliability when you can afford a 740i Mercedes or a rolls. None of the owners of them care because they can afford it. Unless of course they lease or take a massive loan 🤦♂️ those people are idiots.
@@rookinbluebro calm down you know your probably never going to reach a level where you don’t have to care about spending million on a car and it’s maintenance for upper middle class people and some wealthy people they want a luxurious and reliable car so it doesn’t hurt to choose a Lexus. If your too far up your ass to pick rolls Royce over a Lexus your not being realistic your just dreaming over what could’ve been.
@@S.T.R.Y.K.E.R. the ls500 is a disappointment bcuz it depreciates so quick. It's a v6 with an is250 interior. I think the 460l is way better and it holds value. I had a 500; i lost 43k in depreciation and i only put 20k miles. Hold that 460L.
@@felixmartin9156 Yeah man I had changed my mind a few weeks after that comment. I agree. Instead of selling the 460L, i’ll just add on a couple vehicles. I want the 2008 ISF, and any year ES300H and then i’ll put a dual-turbo system on it so i can have fast but also eco-friendly if i want 🤣
Not all of them, the land cruiser 300 series variants petrol and diesels have been preety solid, the australians do loads of trips in them and are okay.
LS460L destroys the LS500 in the long run of reliability and in the power department ….tried and true the 460 is 💪. No disrespect to the 430 but it’s dated yet bulletproof in longevity
I also have a 460 and love it, but what makes you think the LS500 is worse in the power department when it clearly has more HP and TQ. Also, I thought the Pre-facelift LS460 was considered the most unreliable of all the LS series.

That's some next-level bullshit. In what hellhole does an LS500 depreciate this much over a year or two? No Lexus will ever depreciate this much. Check your numbers.
The LS500 cool but they should’ve put the 5.0 like the LC, putting a fucking V6 in a fucking LS is just criminal. If I was rich I’d get a top of the line RWD model ($114K) and Hellcat swap it custom painted in BMW’s San Remo green
These new v6 engines from Toyota are the worst ,overheating problems, and eventually, you have to change the whole engine !! Toyota is not as reliable as it used to be !!
@@yousef.al-assaf that’s fair. The car is definitely set up for a more mature clientele, but have no doubt the IS500 will age + hold value better in the long run. Anyway, if you can buy this off the lot you’re not too worried about those long term (5+ years) benefits. Haha $$$
The Lexus designer destroyed this car by making it a sport look, The LS should look classy like the 460. Second the cheaper version 350 look exactly the same. This why this car keeps losing value.😮
Don't need any unreliable Mercedes or BMW or Rolls Royce, this is the best luxury vehicle in the world.

Wish it was powered by 2UR just like LC500, V6 turbo is torquey but cant beat that V8 soundtrack.
Engines don’t make “soundtracks“, they make NOISE!!! Crude, awful, intrusive, rattling NOISE.
Soundtracks is what the Mark Levinson is for.
It's anything but Old money. LS 430 is the real Old Money my friend.
yup
Toyota been having nightmares with twin turbo v6
Not with this car tho

How do you pick this over a 2000’s GS , SC , LS , or iS ???
Later down the years, I feel like these cars with so many electronics are going to be a headache. Hell, even the 460 wasn't better than the 430
If u geting one of these u do the luxury package
F sport ona luxury car is just silly.
This is amazing but I’d prefer the look of the IS 350 f sport more
❤❤❤
The modern 2jz
I like him.
It more amazing then the S class because it can out live the s class.
It doesn't even compete with S class. S class in entirely different league. The S class can easily last just as long. If maintenance is done on time
Did you say the Kia cost more than the Lexus? Now that’s a good joke 😂
This car is beautiful, but they need need to fix the engine issues.
People don't wanna pay 100k for a v6.
I bought one for 88k and 20k miles later it was worth 43k. What a loss.
Dude that’s wild I’m so sorry
That's what happens with most luxury cars. My coworker just bought a 3 year old Mercedes S560 with 6,800 miles for $70k. Sticker on the car was $126k.

Depends on your preferences. One is a compact sports sedan, the other is an executive luxury ride.

Lmao, 100%.
The resale value for Lexuses is already crazy good, the IS500 might even appreciate
Finally got rid of cd 😂
flagship sedans in a luxury class should have nothing less than 475hp... The LC500 has has 450+ HP, LEXUS always CHEAPS OUT ON PERFORMANCE

Nothing brand new unless you import a tiny Chinese car.

Unfortunately for the price of this people rather buy German
TESLA model S is quicker quieter smoother with better tech.
