This car is absolutely stunning. The best part about the LS is that it’s still made in Tahara, Japan. The same factory that built the 1990 Lexus LS 400 and the 90’s Corolla. It won’t be a surprise if the LS outsells the S Class, A8, and the 7 Series combined.
@@brandonczw Yes, because there’s many factors that contribute to your statement. For one, the marketing campaign for the LS is not as huge compared to the German flagship models. Another thing is that many people think that Lexus is boring even if the LS was in an advertisement that somehow reached a higher amount of impressions. More specifically, the snobs who look at how many tech features a luxury car has.
@@brandonczw the fact that we have to accept is German cars will never be as durable as Japanese cars. Lexus cars can last with over 300k miles,even though german cars will last at 150-200k miles.
@@RAiNfORAiNbOW Usually German cars have more features that are both useful and an emphasis to what makes their vehicles a status symbol. Meanwhile Lexus has features that are both useful, and simple enough for the driver.
Since 1989, imagine all the engineering, money, time and talent that went into establishing the Lexus brand with the LS as its flagship sedan. Seems to me that Lexus lost some its stature with the lost of the V8 engine. It wouldn't be such a blow if the magnificent Lexus V8 was completely gone, but to only offer it in the LC coupe and deny it for the LS sedan is a bad move. The Lexus that taught Mercedes a lesson in luxury has been hobbled with a V6. Remember, Lexus customers can buy V12 power if they want it. Excellent video!

Stunning car! The high quality materials inside seems to be superb. One of the biggest downside, is the upper dashboard screen for the infotainment system. Doesn’t look cohesive with the interior design 👎. Lexus should keep it only for entry level models, not for their flagship.
Some Toyota lol Toyota is one of BEST ever modern car's company, and the advertising televised zombies STILL dreaming with rari rolls expensive GARBAGE.
@@indomitablereasoning2875 toyota is good at selling cheap reliable cars but not expensive ones. Lexus falls behind Mercedes, BMW and Audi in every category.

I mean yes and then no, Lexus IS cheaper then it’s competition, the starting price of an S class is $109,000 while the Lexus IS $80,000. But you can’t beat the luxurious S class. I’ll still take the Lexus, I’ll spend more time on the road then the shop 😌
@@yooalex Consumer Reports give the 2018+ a 46 out of 100 and last place in the segment. Predicated reliability is 2 out of 5 only because they seldom give out 1 out of 5 and never a 0 out of 5. Owelnership satisfaction is lowest at 56% would buy again. You should pass on this unless leased andnjnder warranty or look at an older LS with V8.
Way too many plasticky interior pieces which for this amount of money should either be real metal or covered in leather. They've already short-changed themselves with an anemic engine but have the nerve to wonder why the majority of folks still go German in this price range, smh. . . Get it together Toyo', I mean Lexus

don’t get me wrong the LS is a great car but no way it will outsell its German competitors, they just don’t appeal to as many people

No auto company would invest 1989 money in a brand today. Though Genesis is getting results with less investment.
LEXUS 👌🏻 LS ❤️ TOP LUXURY CAR 😎
The s class wins buddy

Looking forward to that G90 too! ❤️🤜🏽🤛🏽

See Straight Pipes review of the LS and the squeaky rear sun shade!
@@indomitablereasoning2875 Toyota has decline quite a bit in the last decade or two.
Today they are behind again in EV adoption.
Awesome Video, Also Happy Valentine's Day 💕💕💕💕😎👍🏿😎😎👍🏿👍🏿🧡🧡💙💙💙♥️♥️♥️
I like the reliability and low maintenance cost.
Gorgeous car too bad I can't afford it right now
U will afford it!
@@Martin-ms3cn o hope so
Happy Valentine to everyone who sees this ❤️💞💗💖💖💓💕❣️
An excellent review. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Great video milesperhr
i wanna get one of these but i wanna make the exhaust a bit louder and add a bit of power i wonder how well it would respond to a stage 1
Beautiful.
One-day Insha’Allah
Nice video 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Супер 👍 машина моя мечта
Black carpet needs constant vacuuming. Better get the all season floor and trunk mats.
Have you seen the LS executive package?
I'm gonna wait a year to a year and a half , after which this will drop to the high 50s to 60K mark. Then I'll get one with a low mileage
When will you drive the new S class?
Really want it
Very Nice 🧡💕🖤❤️😍 💞 Happy Valentine Day!🌹
excellent
Cool flagship
Rear Door: For the price the window button & button surround should be real metal. The bottom of the door/black cargo pocket should be all leather with suade lining standard, not optional.
Please drive new s class or maybach s class
103k without executive package isn't it overpriced 🤔?
This current LS 500 is ranked at the very bottom with a 52 out 100 by Consumer Reports. It is way overpriced!
@@normt430 but it will last an eternity

Do you have your own car ?
And what is it ?
🤔
He has a land cruiser I think .
Toyota makes lexus, this lexus is on the bone of 2021 Camry. Change my mind
While the LS may not share any parts with a Camry, the Camry and the rest of Lexus and Toyota models all test higher in Consumer Reports testing.
@@normt430 the mastermind behind Lexus is toyota
And the mastermind behind Porsche, Audi, Lamborghini, and Bugatti is Volkswagen. What’s your point?
How much is that
Price as tested is listed in the video description
honestly cant justify buying a new car thats not EV at this point.
