Bought a 1998 ES300. I sold it in 2012 with 287,778 miles to a kid for $500. He told me he has 400,000 miles + on it. The reliability of these automobiles are insane.
No Lexus documentary should skip the GS400, which was the first sports sedan for the brand , and the fastest full size sedan in the world when introduced in 1998.
I'm calling cap 🧢🧢🧢My CuZn had a gs400 and I would always kill him in my 97 750il..how could it be fastest full size sedan? And I'm pretty sure there was an M5 too around that time..u sure it's the fastest sedan???..
@@jonlee580 I dunno about the fastest. But it's definitely the most reliable. And of you look on the streets you see gs 400s from the 90s all the time. Not to many bemmers.
@@jonlee580 maybe your cousin had a broken GS400 (if it’s actually possible to break it), as the 750 rated as 6.7 seconds to 60. It also had less power and I believe more weight. The E39 M5 introduced a bit after the GS400, and was a lot faster, but the previous M5 was slower.
Great story about how persistence and commitment almost always pay off. The amount of dedication Yuki had to his company is absolutely legendary. Love em or hate em you have to respect Toyota and their automobiles.
Why is the titile saying "And lost" While clearly the company is still striving. Yes it might've lost a bit with the LFA but anything else is just great. BTW, great story. Perfect for this saturday Afternoon😘. Great videos hands down😍
@@Sweet_Jelly39 and there I was thinking that Hyundai engines are reliable. But maybe since genesis is roughly new, they might improve overtime. Especially with EVs
LFA is one of Lexus's greatest creations! An Engineering marvel.. What set it back was the long period that they took to produce the car! Still the best sounding V8 out there!
I know I’m talking enthusiast here but I had an original 1991 Toyota Celsior (Yes the RHD not LS400) and it was an absolute joy to drive. Then I went exhaust on it and OMG it sounds soooo good! So much went into making it quite but my question is why? It sounds as nice as it looks, honestly!
I have been a proud Lexus owner for many years. My experience has always been great without issues from any Lexus of owned. Had: 1996 LS400, 2006 LS430, 2010 RX350 and 2017 GS-F. All excellent cars.
This car scared the competition.And as if the LS400 didn't alone scare the crap out of rivals, Toyota then emulated and applied the new standards, stamping and tooling advancements, tolerances and built the 1992 XV10 Camry to Lexus standards, emulating the design language, proportions and bubble shape of the LS400, as did the 1993 AE101 Corolla. The idea of applying industry-benchmark standards to a mid-segment midsize family car and compact economy car was absolutely insane. The models had to be decontented in later generations, making those gen Camry/Corolla unicorns. When competitors saw Toyota apply the influences of engineering to their mainstream non luxury products, they sh*t themselves. The XV10 is what set Camry's reputation, and the reputation and best-selling status is credited to the UCF10 LS400 influences of the 3rd gen, in looks and standards. People wanting a "poor-man's LS400". It is incredible how revolutionary this car truly was. When people bash Lexus for looking like a "fancy Camry" what they don't understand is the Lexus was a completely bespoke flagship, and by leading the entire corporation to Toyota, the redesigns of the mainstream cars were influenced by the LS400, so the resemblance is reverse of how people think. People that believe Lexus is a rip off are not mechanical engineers. I am a Lean process and Mechanical engineer. This car inspired me to become a mechanical/aerospace engineer
I love the LFA my dream is to one day own a LC500 I had a is250 and I fell in love I drove in a isf and I think that is enough for what a car should be I love Toyota the Lexus division is the best . That’s why Toyota stay on the top for being the most successful car company
After having my Mercedes towed by the same tow truck driver 3 times, he told me the only car I don’t tow is a Lexus. This was in 2000. I haven’t driven anything else since then and with the two,RXs I’ve owned in that time, I never replaced a single light bulb in the car or brakes.
used to have a 1999 avalon XLS. every mechanic i ever took it too told me it was “an LS in disguise”. i wish i had kept it. the v6 in that thing could MOVE!
The reason for the name change being taken as a personal inst was because it literally was. The Toyoda family were the CEO's and chairman of the company.
Aaaah I remember those polish dealerships and also the "Taste of Lexus" event they use to have ever year in the late 90's in the DC area. They brought all of there cars and all of the competitors and let you drive all of them to show just how good theirs were. They even had complimentary dinning, live jazz band, the whole dog and pony show. Those were the days lol.
I am 64 years of age and I have to admit I have never owned a Lexus. On the other hand, I have owned many different cars and trucks and motorcycles from many manufacturers. I can tell you that by and large the Japanese manufacturers don’t treat the passenger, the same way they treat the driver. One of the reasons that American trucks are so popular is that they give the same amount of attention to the passengers amenities as they do the drivers. In many Japanese cars, even the top-tier models, the driver gets a seat that adjusts in many different ways and the passenger will get a seat that goes forwards and backwards and with the back of the seat going from sitting up to laying back. I am now on disability and this fact has been sorely brought home to me. I can’t speak for Tesla for I haven’t been able to afford one and probably will not be able to. So I hope manufacturers will take this to heart without making it a $3000 option.
I am your age and just bought an Acura MDX Advance. I tell you, some car god must have heard you and told Honda. The passenger seat has all the adjustments the driver’s seat has, including heated and ventilated and 3 position memory.
I eventually bought the ls430 but I also had Toyota prius. By that time, I was so used to good gas milesage, LS 430 sucks too much gas even though I loved the car, I felt that it was gas guzzler... I dumped the car since I was getting like 17 -19 miles per gallon... Far lower than 50 miles per gallon with Prius. Two years ago I bought Lexus RX 450H, byrid because my experience with LS430. I highly recommend to buy hybrid due to economic of gas mileage. I am happy with gas mileage and comfort and qualify of the car. I bought used (2015 year with only 30,0000 miles) but had not car trouble issues.. :)
Lexus dealerships/service centers are excellent. They don’t try to screw you over, and really don’t cost much more than regular Toyota service. Plus, my local service center gives me a loaner at no additional cost, even if I only need an oil change.
Great documentary 👍 2 weeks ago I was at the Lexus dealership buying a new NX300 for my wife and there was a Lexus history chart on the wall. I was very surprise to see that it was named Lexis before it became Lexus.
Still stuck with a '98 Lx470 with over 200k. Decided to part way with it a few times, but had to do one last drive before letting go. The question that kept arising is why do I need to sell it? There's nothing wrong with it.
"Lexus design out any failure points" in their vehicles. Yes, I agree with that. However, some manufacturers intentionally design "in" failure points so owners can be confident that for example, the water pump will fail around 40-50k miles. LOL Great video!! +new sub!!
The funniest thing is in my Factory where we make parts for military vehicles almost every car park outside is a Toyota!!! I have a Prius with 300,000 thousand miles and you can’t even hear te engine.!!! I’m buying a new Toyota 4 Runner but, theirs no way I’m selling my Prius !!!that car is family now.!!!

Have you even driven both? BMW's driving dynamics and drive train will impress over a Lexus most of the time. Not to say Lexus is inferior, they just both target goals differently, albeit impressively.
@@DQ333 maybe for their m3's which was more of their sporty than luxurious model, but for their other fully luxurious passenger models like the m5, no. Also that is more apparent in todays day and age
I have owned 4 Lexus vehicles, and I WILL NEVER BUY another brand ever again. It is comfortable, bullet proof, excellent resale value. You can buy a brand new Lexus for $50k, drive for 5 years, paid it off, and still sell it for $25k. My only complaint about Lexus is the performance (hp, handling, road feel, feedback) needs to go up a couple of notches.
When Toyota first got into F1 they also spent over a Billion dollars in developing that car ....and to no avail...they got out of F1 during the financial crisis in 2008 along with teams from B&W and the Honda team .....
Funny how Lexus never appealed to me as a luxury car. It always seems to be yet another boring middle class car. But maybe that’s because I’m Dutch and in The Netherlands. It doesn’t’ strike me as a very successful brand here.
Here in Germany "almost every 1 could lease an ABM" (Audi / Bmw / Mercedes), starting late 2000s and got "worse" over the years prevented the Sucess of Lexus 😢, even if those were almost at the same Level.
My wife and I have had four, two ES and two LS that have served us well, she decided she wanted a Q7 when she retired and while it has been a good car it's no Lexus. She is going back to Lexus for her next vehicle.
I still love toyota and lexus. Wish they made like dodge cars. Straight line 6 8 10 12 and hybrid or twin turbo options on top. Menu pairing. Then choose frame like scion, etc.
I’m in the process of moving away from European cars. Sold a V-8 powered five series BMW. I bought the last RX 350 that came to my state because I had no desire for anything with a four-cylinder TwinTurbo set up. Even from Lexus. One more BMW will go by the wayside in order to get my wife into an all wheel drive V6 powered Lexus sedan. No more Mercedes, BMW, Audi, Porsche vehicles for my family 👍🏻
I wonder how people saying German engineering is best while Lexus is the best engineered car. Japanese cars and American cars are better than German cars.
The LFA was actually a failure. Too expansive and slower than the competition at the time. It's only gaining popularity now after the fact. But loved the video. And agree work everything what
if we could only go back in time, Lexus could have use the 5.0 V12 of their Toyota Century for the LS and SC during the 1990s, and called them the LS500 and SC500 respectively, to rival Germans best, specially the ones with the V12s -Mercedes Benz S600L and SL600 -BMW 750iL and 850Ci -Audi A8 W12 among those,

I own one Avalon too. The engine was the best also everything else about that machine.
Now Lexus is only selling extremely lackluster crossovers and SUVs.
Very well made documentary. Thanks to the team, well done!
At one stage, Lexus had the IS-F, an M3 rival. Not quite as good as the M3, but pretty damn close. It's a shame they didn't make a successor to that.
Is500 but yeah, not an F😢
