This week, Alex gets behind the wheel of Steve's 1997 Lexus LS400. Bought in California this car has seen more of the country than most, and it does not show. This super clean LS400 is the perfect example of what it is like to own a modest build that can still handle driving down the road like a normal car. Is this the last affordable JDM car of the 90s?

I've had a 1990 ls400 since 2012..... I lost my radio because the cup holder was too small and smashed on the brakes and watched a drink slide into the radio. I drove around everywhere with the traction control turned off and extra power on, all three sun visors down, and I would be doing the one wheel peel every turn.

Ls400's are the master race! The 90's lexus line-up is amazing! Also the 1uz-fe was built for a gt race series. With MLS head gaskets and arp head studs, you now have a motor that can live at 780hp happily. So I would have to disagree with your not so tuner friendly comment.

Owned a 1992 LS400 for years, and it was a fantastic car. Super clean, smooth, and unbelievably reliable (I owned it from the time I was 19-22, and let me tell you about neglecting maintenance and it still just rolling along seamlessly...). After a great time with the LS400, I replaced it with the only car I found that I could enjoy even more... and after several years of owning a 2005 LS430, I can tell you that no other sedan (JDM, German, etc.) compares in terms of interior quality, vault-like serenity, and that bulletproof Toyota reliability. If you get the opportunity, either 400 or 430, join the LS gang!

I'm the second owner of a 95 LS 400 with 210,000 miles. Bought it in 2019 with 196,000, and a damaged front bumper for $700. It was Ebony Teal Pearl with dark gray Metallic tu tone when purchased. After new bumper replacement I decided to paint it the solid Ebony Teal Pearl without the dark gray. I have done several preventive maintenance projects such as starter, water pump, timing belt kit, oil cover gaskets, fuel pump, alternator, front and rear struts, full tune-up including both coils and distributors, cooling systems, transmission tune-up. Added 18in Motegi gold and chrome wheels, trunk deck spoiler and front bumper lip. This car is amazing and I have no plans to sell it, even though I have had offers up to $7,000. I'm sixty two, and this is by far the best car I have ever owned.

ive got a 94 ls, so i can really only speak on the 89-94. there are some cons obviously the first gens are all almost 30 years old, alot of the bushings and mounts may be worn, for the most part they are hard to get, as well as expensive, as are most parts for the first gens. be ready to do a timing belt and water pump, 89-94 is non-interference, but 95 and up are interference. the water pump is timing belt driven. there is a bracket that the fan clutch rides on, replace it while you are in doing the water pump. the bearing on that bracket failed on mine and i had to run the car with no radiator fan for a few months. they are overengineered in the cooling department so it isnt super risky to do that. id also say unplug the little condensor pressure switch down on the bottom driver side of the condensor, makes those fans run if the ignition is on. other than that, mine has 217000 miles and runs perfect. they do sound really good honestly, similar sound to a 5.4 triton but if you get some nice mufflers they sound great. if you do run straight pipes id say get a resonator, they drone super bad. be ready for some pretty bad gas mileage as well, mine has 19's on it and i get 10mpg edit: all the positives he said in the video do apply though, its an incredibly well built and designed car

i've been rocking a 97 LS 400 since 2018 and absolutely love it. i've never had anything break or leave me stranded, any maintenance has always just been preemptive. it was a 2nd owner for $3200. i actually finally just dropped it a couple of months ago. I went with SSR Down celsior springs and kyb struts. it looks great and i don't have to deal with the air suspension complexity nor lose any comfort. handling is a bit tighter now and it has less body roll. About to finally hit 200k and def hope to make it to 500K-1 Mill. ngl though i am very happy i also have a 5MT honda fit. i can save miles on the lexus & also save on these gas prices but still drive this whenever i need or want to.

@@FitmentIndustries nothing too crazy, i still need to do the timing belt but other than that and getting the ECU caps redone, that's all the more or less left for the "major" maintenance. I might paint it, get it wrapped and put new wheels on [currently on the SC430 wheels] but not sure what i want to do yet. it's tempting to go all out but its also nice to just have something reliable you can turn on, drive and not worry about

I have a 97 ls400 coach edition and it's such a good ride. I only have 170k miles on it and it's the best car I've ever had. it is need of an exhaust repair, but in the mean time I'm enjoying that straight pipe V8 sound. still need to get it on some baller wheels and it'll be clean 🔥

The reason you have issues with cupholders is because that "standard size" is an American standard size, Saul from better caul size actually has that issue in the show when he gets a European Merc company car
