  I would rate this is as one of the best 4 wheels ever produced, luxury power and style. Lest say it is Beauty and the Beast togather.

  Best SUV period - 2005 Lexus LX 470
  By rcm10 - July 24 - 11:00 pm

  I first purchased an LX in 2000. Im on my 3rd and 4th ones now. These dont ever break..ever. I have gray 2005 and my wife has a black 2007. Comfortable, reliable. They are fairly expensive new, but if you can find one(and its difficult) a year old or so you will not be sorry. I live on an island in Florida and it floods often after heavy summer rains. no problem, Push the button to raise the car six inches and plow on through when you get to 20mph it lowers itself back down. In my opinion, this car looks like a perfect combination of tough and refined making it a true classic.

  Worth the Money - 2005 Lexus LX 470
  By jl culberson - March 21 - 10:00 am

  The Lexus LX470 is worth every penny. Like the Landcrusier in looks ,but not ride. We have a Landcruiser as well and I have to say the Lexus rides so much smoother. There is also a difference in service when I take my car in for maintenance. Toyota has nothing on Lexus for their service department.This is a suv worth every penny..

  It really is THE best SUV - 2005 Lexus LX 470
  By vdragon - April 7 - 1:26 am

  It is a little expensive. It could use a little more HP. Wish the fuel economy was better. But the ride, the quality and reliability, the safety features, all the electronics, are truly the best. You cant beat it in any of those categories. You have to test-drive this vehicle. Drive all the rest, and then drive the LX. Its truly something special.

  What an SUV! - 2005 Lexus LX 470
  By Lexus411 - March 16 - 10:00 am

  This is an astonishing vehicle. It provides 8 person seating, Leather, Fold up seats, and all. It has features to the max! We had the LX fully loaded to a SUV of $80,000. It had Navigation, DVD, Night Vision, Heated Seats (Front and Back) and just much, much More!

  Lexus LX470 - 2005 Lexus LX 470
  By jayewe - July 19 - 10:00 am

  I write with 3000 miles and 3 months of use-experience, both in town and highway. It handles well, parks easily, has all the power I could want, and is easy to get in and out of, comfortable, and quiet. Ive had zero problems. Its a bit boxy in exterior style. My other car is a 2004 Prius, at the other extreme of fuel efficiency, so I average about 30 mpg between the two -- (15 + 45)/2. A hybrid LX wont repeal the laws of physics, but recapturing some of the LXs kinetic energy could improve the numbers somewhat.
