  • SUPER RELIABILITY & COMFORT - 2000 Lexus LS 400
    By -

    Bought pre-owned @ 3 yr. old but with only 6800 miles. Have since pumped up to 56k. Now 9 yrs. old and have not put a single penny into it beyond maintenance. Drive is uninspiring around town but a champ on the highway. Cruises with uncanny smoothness. A true luxury ride with exceptional quietness. Blah, grandpa-like exterior (and who designed the ugliest alloy wheels ever?) but interior is attractive and plush. I probably wont but could keep car for another 15 years and it would still be an enjoyable ride. A bit jumpy off the mark. Even if you try to moderate throttle it tends to leap off line. Surprisingly fuel efficient on hwy (up to 28 mph) but premium a must. Mileage suffers otherwise.

  • 242k miles and running strong - 2000 Lexus LS 400

    This is the best car I have ever owned - far superior to Mercedes vehicles I have had in the past. Bought it new and it runs great and still does not burn oil after 242k miles. Spark plugs lasted over 150k miles and first battery lasted 12 +years. The vehicle is rust free after 17 years in the northeast, where they love to salt the roads. Only negative about this car is the traction is not good in snow - otherwise the greatest car I have ever owned.

    I just love the ride of this Platinum LS 400. I have had 7 Lexus and this one rides the best - even better than the 2002LS400 Ultra.

  • Old now-but great - 2000 Lexus LS 400
    By -

    For those looking for a great older used car, you must consider the LS400 if you value ride, performance, undying style and good looks. Bought it used and kept it 5 years. Only giving it up because it retained such high value and we wanted to get in on a newer certified LS (2004 which has the highest LS rating for the decade). The care didnt age in looks or care requirements between 30K and 88K miles. Hope the next buyer is as continuously satisfied as we were

    Best car ever owned

    This is the best car that I have ever owned. I had a 1993 for seven years which was also an exceptional car. The comfort is unmatched, and I have owned several other luxury cars.

  • Theres Nothing More I can Ask For - 2000 Lexus LS 400
    By -

    This LS400 was actually my wifes car but sometimes we swap with my GS400. Both cars were fully loaded but the best feature that I enjoy most is the Nakamichi sound system. The safety features are the best in the industry and the reability and the built quality I can say, OUTSTANDING so far. Gas mileage in the LS is much better than the GS (both has the same engine; 300 hp for the GS/290 hp for the LS) The comfort and the pampering in the LS400 is beyond comparedriven BMW7series. Personally, I like the Lexus LS400 ride better, extremely quiet,vibration free,and of course it has an excellent reliability records.

  • Excellence Continues - 2000 Lexus LS 400
    By -

    This is the third Lexus (of four) Ive bought since 1991. The two LS, one each SC and RX have each been tops in reliability, luxury and overall quality. An old friend advised me long ago that the only way to beat the high cost of automobile ownership is to buy a really good car and maintain it forever. Maybe "forever" is a stretch, but the philosophy really pays off with these cars.

  • Excellent Daily Commuter - 2000 Lexus LS 400
    By -

    After 293,000 on still solid 95 Avalon, I bought the only car that I can trust to take me to 400,000+ miles in the next 8 years with the fewest problems, most comfort and best performance. Bought as cream puff at auction, 1 issue. I initially fretted because I had Dunlop sport 4000s and worried about Winter in New England with a 150 mile daily commute and no snow tires. Well, the traction control and VSC complemented the near new tires so well that I never had a problem on the highway and the LS drove like a tank in the city. Im glad I bought this car instead of the RL,Q45 and 01-04 Avalon. Im not wishing I had them. Despite what Id read, the handlings nimble depending on seat position.

  • Best Car Ever - 2000 Lexus LS 400
    By -

    Ive driven many cars over the years and this Lexus is by far the best. My previous was a Toyota Celica Convertible, which was also as reliable, but after 12 years I wanted more comfort. I found it!
