The Lexus LX470 and Toyota Land Cruiser 100-series are great for families and off road adventurers alike. This one-owner 2004 Lexus LX470 is a rare find in its condition and low mileage. It has 115,000 miles and has lived its entire life in Southern California. It’s fully loaded, the best paint color Lexus offers, and has been very well cared for. These are amazing cars; capable of circumnavigating the globe without fail and used to protect and transport dignitaries around the world. In the US they are most frequently employed as safe family vehicles used to cart around the kids, get groceries, and take the family to the mountains. Regardless of whether they are used for kids or NATO they take a lot of abuse. As a result, it’s rare to find LX’s and Toyota Land Cruisers in this kind of clean and cared-for condition. It has right over 115,000 miles and should be perfect well past 350,000.

It was serviced at Lexus Tustin and Lexus Malibu and comes with a detailed service history. The previous owner loved the car and it shows. The major 90k mile servicing was done at a Lexus dealership - which is the most expensive service interval on this car. Since purchasing it, we have had it inspected twice: one was done by Carlsbad Lexus. It passed with flying colors and we were congratulated for finding a car in such immaculate condition.

It is a very capable full-time 4-wheel drive vehicle with low and high transfer-case gearing and a center differential lock. It also comes with Lexus/Toyota’s famous A-TRAC traction system for your time off road or in low-traction conditions. The v8 produces plenty of power and gets great gas-mileage for a capable 4x4 SUV of this size.

It comes fully loaded with premium Mark-Levinson audio, CD-changer, navigation, back-up camera, climate control, power rear windows, heated seats and side-mirrors, auto-darkening mirrors, power retracting mirrors, and a great deal more. It also has the very convenient and reliable “adjustable height suspension” (AHC) which allows you to raise and lower the car – from the driver’s seat - for your loading/unloading and off road/high-clearance needs.

The exterior is immaculate. There are no dents, scratches, or dings of consequence. It’s painted in Diamond White Pearl which is one of the highest quality and most expensive paints available: it is typically used only for show-quality classic cars and hot-rods. When this LX470 was first sold, it was the most expensive car Lexus made by a very large margin. With this high price came some very high-quality options not previously available. One of those options was Diamond White Pearl paint. The paint is 3-stage paint unlike typical 2-stage paints. The extra stage is a layer of finely ground synthetic pearls. This pearl dust takes the place of metal-flakes in typical automotive paint that deteriorates quickly in the sun. This paint has proven again and again that it can stand up to huge amounts of abuse and continue to look nicer than brand new cars coming off the lot.

The interior is much like the exterior: clean and well cared for. The carpets are stain-free and have been protected by a set of factory Lexus floor mats its entire life (included). The leather is exceptionally clean and well cared for. The steering wheel and dash have no cracks, tears, scratches, or blemishes. It comes with all of the original documents including the owner’s manual, navigation disk, key-tag, etc.

The car is perfect mechanically. Everything has been serviced at the factory intervals and the entire car was just given a clean bill of health from Lexus. We will provide a detailed life-time service history for the car.

I am happy to arrange shipping domestically and will export and ship anywhere in the world. All shipping, transport, and export fees will be charged to the buyer. Please see payments and deposit section for payment and deposit terms.

 Please visit our website (forgive the construction) or contact us directly with any questions you might have. We are available to answer any of your questions by phone or email Monday-Saturday 8am-6pm PST. If you are local and interested in seeing the vehicle, a showing/test-drive can be arranged by appointment only.

2024 Lexus GX and Land Rover Defender numbers crunched

Fri, Jun 9 2023

The 2024 Lexus GX finally brings the luxury off-roader up-to-date. And it does so in a boxy, rugged wrapper that makes comparisons to the 2024 Land Rover Defender, another luxury off-roader of similar size and capability. So we figured, let's make that comparison. We've looked at all the specifications available for the two SUVs to see how they stack up. Engines and Transmissions The GX keeps things simple under the hood with a single powertrain. It has a twin-turbocharged 3.4-liter V6 hybrid making 340 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque. That horsepower number only tops the Defender's four-cylinder engine, but the GX has the torque advantage even against the Defender's mighty V8 option. The GX's V6 is paired with a 10-speed automatic and full-time four-wheel drive. Full fuel economy numbers haven't been given, but Toyota is expecting 17 mpg combined. Unfortunately, that fuel economy is worse than all the Defender powertrains except the V8. As alluded to, the Defender is available with three main engines, an inline-four, inline-six and V8. The closest competitors to the GX will be the regular 110 four-door and the longer 130 four-door. The 110 can be had with the turbo 2.0L four-cylinder making 296 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque; the turbo mild-hybrid 3.0L six-cylinder making 395 horsepower and 405 pound-feet; or the supercharged 5.0L V8 making 518 horsepower and 461 pound-feet. The 130 gets two versions of the six-cylinder, one making 296 horsepower and 347 pound-feet and one making 395 horsepower and 405 pound-feet. The V8 is also available but just with 493 horsepower and 461 pound-feet of torque. All of the engines get an eight-speed automatic and full-time four-wheel drive. The four-cylinder 110 gets 18 mpg combined, the six gets 20 and the V8 manages just 16. Both 130 six-cylinder powertrains return 19 mpg combined, and the V8 doesn't have numbers yet. Towing and Cargo Towing capacity is pretty straightforward. The Lexus has a maximum capacity of 8,000 pounds, and the Land Rover tops it by 200 pounds more. Some trim levels of both SUVs have lower towing capacity, depending on the configuration. As for cargo space, Lexus hasn't shared details. It is available with up to three rows of seating and room for seven passengers. The 110 has similar seating available, and the 130 ups the ante with a three-across third row. And we've found that the 130's third row is genuinely usable by adults.

2018 Lexus LS First Drive | Luxury, performance and the puzzling parts

Wed, Sep 27 2017

When one imagines the enormous executive sedan that might be driven by a wealthy lawyer or banker (or their chauffeur), the mind naturally goes to the Mercedes S-Class or the BMW 7-Series. Venerable, enormous and expensive. But for those wanting to keep their driveway a little more understated, we also have the Lexus LS. Sure, it's not as ostentatious as the big saloons from Munich and Stuttgart, but it has a dignified elegance all its own. For nearly three decades, the LS has been a discrete and dependable Japanese luxury sedan. The new 2018 LS, perhaps thankfully, is a bit less discrete. We saw the new-look LS when it was introduced earlier this year in Detroit. Now we know how it drives. We put the 2018 LS through its paces on the traffic-clogged streets of San Francisco and over the Golden Gate Bridge to the twisty B-roads around Marin County and the legendary Skywalker Ranch, where we stopped for lunch. Unfortunately, all in attendance were sworn to secrecy about the details of Skywalker Ranch, but we're free to tell you all about the LS. Here's our one-sentence summary, which can be used to describe many cars to bear the Lexus badge: It's excellent in many respects, odd in a few, and incredibly, massively frustrating in one very important area. Lexus has a brand new 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged V6 paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission, a first for a premium passenger car. It produces 416 horsepower and 442 pound-feet of torque, up from 386 hp and 367 lb-ft from the outgoing naturally aspirated 4.6-liter V8. Lexus engineers are extremely proud of the fuel efficiency of the new engine, which required some clever technical innovations (a longer bore stroke and increased valve angle) as well as tech borrowed from Formula One, including a "laser clad valve seat" that allows for a more direct flow of air into the combustion chamber and a high "tumble ratio." In other words, Lexus figured out how to get more bang out of each gasoline-powered buck. Fuel economy numbers are 19 city, 29 highway, and 23 combined for the RWD version and 18/27/21 for AWD, with the highway numbers particularly helped along by the 10-speed gearbox. It's a torque converter unit, but Lexus promises shift times that rival its dual-clutch-wielding competitors. The LS is no slouch, either. In RWD trim, the nearly 5,000-pound car hustles from 0-60 mph in 4.6 seconds, according to Lexus' reckoning.

Lexus, Mazda win KBB 5-Year Cost To Own Awards

Wed, 05 Feb 2014

We focus a lot on what new cars are like to drive, but it's difficult on a one-week loan to really get a sense of what a car is like to live with. Sure, we try to recreate that sense with our long-term vehicles, but even after a year, it's impossible to know fully learn about a car, particularly in terms of reliability and cost of repairs. For 2014 model year vehicles, Kelley Blue Book has put together a list of the most affordable vehicles over a five-year period.
At the tippy top of the list are Mazda and Lexus, with the Zoom-Zoom automaker winning the award for best non-luxury brand. Lexus, meanwhile, was the most affordable luxury marque over a five-year period. It's interesting to note, though, that not a single Mazda won its segment in this year's awards.
General Motors did quite well, taking eight segments, including both the subcompact and plug-in segments, with the gas-powered Chevrolet Spark and Spark EV. The Chevy Camaro SS and ZL1 took the high-performance car award. Toyota was well represented, with five winners split between the main brand (Corolla, Prius C and Tacoma) and Lexus (LS and RX).
