FLiP Sp33d Posted July 11, 2003 Posted July 11, 2003 if you guys think 300k miles is high, this guy has 550,000 MILES :snoooorrrtttt: on his 89 ls400!!! i got this off lexus magazine that i get in the mail :D
squarehat Posted July 11, 2003 Posted July 11, 2003 It seems, at least anecdotally, that the 1st Gen LS is the most reliable Lexus ever. Perfect build quality, great engineering (the 1UZ-FE V8 is incredibly overbuilt), and not as complex as say, a 2003 LS 430 with all of the gadgets.
bbsal Posted July 11, 2003 Posted July 11, 2003 thats amazing.mostly all highway miles im sure though.
ProZac Posted July 11, 2003 Posted July 11, 2003 Hehe. we got that mag last week, and my dad showed me.... i was like "wholy crap!" thats a LOT of mileage! I hope i can get that outta my Es300 :P :P :P ~Brian~
skeemer Posted July 12, 2003 Posted July 12, 2003 There was a '91 LS in our local paper with 260k miles on it for $6500...made me feel good about the 6000 i paid for my car :D
piggyncsu Posted July 12, 2003 Posted July 12, 2003 wow..... im freaking out about the 130+ miles my car has.sheesh. its got a long way to go with me :)
piggyncsu Posted July 12, 2003 Posted July 12, 2003 and can i get a link to that so i can show my dad......maybe then he will want to keep my car in super top condition, instead of duct-taping and spray-painting :)
FLiP Sp33d Posted July 12, 2003 Author Posted July 12, 2003 the pic is in the es300 gallery http://us.lexusownersclub.com/albums/LS/ls555k.jpg
chillaxin Posted July 12, 2003 Posted July 12, 2003 well, i've had my car for about three months now, and i'm already over 6,000 miles. so just estimating that i average about 2500 miles a month, i'd have to drive my car for more than 18 years to catch up to that guy! :o wow, that guy has a ton of miles on his car. hmmm... unless i buy a lexus used, maybe i can catch up to him faster

Piranha Posted July 27, 2003 Posted July 27, 2003 my dad puts 35000 a year on his car. the farthest hes ever pushed any car is his 1992 Toyota Camry which had 260,000 miles when he sold it (still running fine). my 1995 ES has 184,000
H8R Proof Posted July 29, 2003 Posted July 29, 2003 Man, and I stress over the 8K or so I put on my ES per year!!
