  Classy - 1999 Lexus LX 470
  By rahang - May 29 - 4:53 am

  Bought this vehicle used from repeat owner of LX 470s who also loves the LX 470. We have driven it in the Rocky Mountains and Northern Michigan in various extreme weather and road conditions and it hardly skipped a heartbeat. Then the problems. Front wheel portion of AWD failed completely without warning and complete and thorough maintenance & records upkeep. No reason, just failed with less than 120K miles on vehicle. Lexus Company left me dry and lacking enthusiasm for its continued reliability stating I should have bought extended warranty. Chagrined that a seemingly top notch vehicle of this caliber has such a major problem with so few miles, but goes to show failure happens

  I enjoy driving this car every day - 1999 Lexus LX 470
  By ohsupharmd - February 6 - 3:36 am

  I love the comfort and realibity of this car. I wanted an SUV with a look, performance, comfort, realibility and I found the LX. I just make sure I change the oil every 3 months, and do the maintenance at recommended mileage. I wish Lexus offered 22 inch rims for the car; it is very hard to find a rim that will fit the car. It has an unusual ball pattern. Great car, what else can anyone ask for?

  A near perfect vehicle - 1999 Lexus LX 470
  By John - August 17 - 6:56 am

  In my 50 years of owning and driving vehicles, this one is my favorite. Its also been the most reliable and trouble free and the dealership has been a pleasure with the routine upkeep of the vehicle. This is truly a "turn-key" situation, just turn it on and go, in comfort and style. This is also the first vehicle Ive ever owned for 200,000 miles. And theyve been virtually trouble free.

  Not worth the money - 1999 Lexus LX 470
  By cmorr - January 4 - 3:30 pm

  Purchased as 2nd owner with 50,000 miles, have had it since 2003 now has 110,000 miles on it the moulding on doors was replaced twice because of wind noise still noisy. Radio bad-cd quite working about 1 year ago went to cassette and now it dosent work and the antenna failed all with less than 110,000 easy miles on it. Our upkeep is around 3500 every 9-12 months the leather interior is cracking and is going to cost about 800 to replace. Worst car (for the money spent) that I have ever had. We have a 1992 honda accord with 300,000 miles that I drive.

  Lexus LX 470 - 1999 Lexus LX 470
  By rtemple - February 15 - 10:00 am

  Go anywhere in any weather in style and comfort. Gas: 14-16 mpg is the only shortcoming, but that is to be expected when getting hauled around by this full- time AWD powerful V-8.

  In love with mine... - 1999 Lexus LX 470
  By Simon_Capell - September 10 - 10:00 am

  Wanted a Land Cruiser with a bit extra comfort and Lexus level dealer service. Got it all and more with this vehicle - it continues to surprise me with its awesome construction quality and smoothness of operation. You just drive it and it works - simple as that. Spent a reasonable amount of time off road as well and it has been faultless (mountain passes/driveable beaches/deep snow).

  Incredible Car - 1999 Lexus LX 470
  By SDBolts - August 4 - 2:00 am

  Recently purchased this vehicle used and I absolutely Love the car. The style and condition was excellent. Extremely smooth ride-expecially with the height control. If you Love gadgets, this vehicle has it. Of course the fuel economy is going to be bad-its a V8 engine and a lot of car. Every LX 470 owner knows this prior to purchasing this car.
