This is really more of an overview and driving impressions of the LS400. If you would to see a video of me going in depth about interior quality and etc, check out an old review of mine where I filmed a 99 LS400 which is essentially the same car. • 1999 Lexus LS400 Start...

I think new cars and new technology are cool but something about these early 2000 late 90s cars is just nicer. They are simple, they are very reliable, and if something brakes it's cheape and somewhate easy to fix yourself.

The LS400, a masterpiece of Japanese engineering.

I inherited one of these last year when my dad died. My mom had it inspected by a trusted mechanic. "It's perfect". He offered to buy it. We said "no way".

Don't make like this anymore, I sold my 97 coach edition back in 2010 and have been kicking my self in the nuts ever since. Quite frankly the best quality car I have ever owned, and that's with 225k miles at the time, everything was tight and the engine was incredible

I have the GS400, 206k miles. Runs flawless. Muscly v8. Shockingly easy to work on. I have a real hard time wanting to buy anything else.

I bought a 1992 LS400 in 1999 from an elderly gentleman who was getting a new LS. With currently 350,000 km. Other than timing belt, water pump, belt pulley bearings, replaced 2 driver front window motors, upper and lower ball joints mounts and alternator, it never given me any problem. It's very easy to maintain. Still drives the same as in 1999. This is really one of the best and most reliable car ever built.

I bought my 1998 LS400 in 2001 from a dealer as a lease return for $44K with 42000 miles. It had air shocks and navigation system (on the hard drive), upgraded chrome rims and original Lexus sound system that is so much better than Nakamichi or ML upgraded ones. Now 18 years later, the car has 132500 miles, I had to change eventually air shocks for a stock shocks, just because it was too expensive to replace them. I had changed 2 batteries (original Lexus one worked for 9! years), 2 times breaks, every now and then synthetic oil (sticker shows I was due to replace it 4 years ago?), this year I had to replace power steering pump that was slowly leaking, and tires. That is it. It never broke other than when a suspension air bag blew while I was driving on a hwy., which was leaking slowly for some time. Once I had rear ended someone, and insurance wanted to total it, but I declined and fix it. There is no words to describe this car other than "awesome". When I was in the shop, the shop owner told me that he will buy it fron me any time. The other day I parked at the store, and security guard flagged me and asked me if I wanted to sell it, I said no (LOL). He went on to tell me how much he loves it, and is sad that he sold his a while back. I have 2 other Lexuses both 2005, LS430 and LX470 that my daughter and wife driving, but I prefer this one. No desire to own a new car, as this one has everything that I need and then some. An absolutely amazing vehicle!

I got a '95 ( previous model ), same colour option and I'm only the second owner. 54 k miles only and mint. Keeping it original though I've updated the stereo. I polish and wax it a couple of times a year and it sits in the garage every night. Still getting the thumbs up occasionally which is nice . Surprised that the air suspension option still works a treat and doesn't make a sound . Quietest car I've ever owned, get it serviced by my friend Dan, who happens to work for Lexus.

Great car. I love mine. I applied Shin-Etsu silicone grease to all of my door and window seals. Made a huge difference in blocking out those higher-frequency outside noises. Also replaced my engine mounts and transmission mount (which were completely separated at 130,000 miles). That made an enormous amount of difference in engine isolation and transmission engagement. Also installed new rear control arms, and new strut rod bushings. Slapped new wheels on and coilovers and the car is now perfect with a more grounded ride, but with a small trade-off on overall smoothness of ride (less float). Also, that loose corner lens should pop in to place with some pressure. It has a little metal prong behind it that snaps into a hole on the fog light lens. If it doesn't want to pop in, back the screw out on the lens, then try to pop it into place and put the screw back in.
