Lexus LS500 Ownership - Two Years Later...

LC500H or a boring SUV

Interesting numbers! I average 21.4 mpg with my 8 cylinder 2007 LS460 with a little over 92K on the odometer.

NX450h+?

Nice. I am sad to see the LS go, but hopefully something nice will replace it.

Great video @InternetDude, I am still rocking my 2011 Lexus LS 460L with now 110,000 miles since day one. I am going to drive this car to the ground, I would upgrade but it has everything I need and the air suspension is great for Indiana/MidWest American roads. Maybe we can see a LC 😀 next time!

your next car will be the new NX450h+

I'm guess is ES300H?

My guess is you're going with an ES300h Ultra Luxury. My LS500's real world fuel economy per tank has been between 17.4 and 20.5 mpg which is awful but almost all my driving is suburban/city so I am really jealous of better numbers, particularly now. Looking forward to your new car videos.

i will assume you ordered IS300H

ill get a lexus once they have a phev sedan or ev sedan.

I’m assuming you’re buying the new NX hybrid, I’m trying to talk my wife into the NX450+ F sport

Lexus NX 450h

It better not be an LC 500 hybrid 🤮.

Can't wait for your like/dislike video on the LS. I, from time to time, thought about upgrading my 2019 ES 300h UL to an LS (love the road presence of the LS), but the car is pretty much perfect and I got attached to it since I bought it brand new back then. I just reached 80 000KM with literally 0 problem and use it as a daily to commute to work (I just do oil changes and the an annual Service #3 right after winter during my winter tire change). The thing that really sealed the deal for the ES 300h is the unbeatable fuel economy. It consumes less than my previous 2010 Corolla S that I have been driving for nearly a decade (sits at around 210 000KM and still running ; gave it to my dad).

I actually have LS 500h and I’m having some 2nd thoughts what if I bought the regular LS500 may be it’ll be more responsive driving wise

It's a beautiful car. How the car your get will still be a saloon

Did you order a ES ? I’m thinking after having a LS it would be very difficult to drive a smaller vehicle.

Es350h ultra luxury?
Lc500h?

2 years of the LS... Did you lease the car or you own it? Will you be losing a lot due to the depreciation? LS's don't sell that fast and the residue value is bad post lease.
I'm getting an NX450h+ and hopefully it's arriving within the next two weeks. It's anytime.... Looking forward to see your new ride.

I love how the issue doesn’t need a tow truck.. just a day at the dealer !!
Lexus/Toyota is the best..!
A million Uber Toyota drivers can’t be wrong...!

How come you did not buy another LS I wanna buy LS 2020 to let me know

Great move staying with Lexus.

Hello 👋. I have a 2020 inspiration series and my massage seats don’t feel like they are as pronounced as they used to be. They actually feel recessed like in all the Mercedes that I have owned. Should I have them looked at. Also why does the concierge seating kick off all the time.

I do love the look of the 2018+ LS500s but once they dropped the v8, I was out... I have been driving the LS for 20 years now, I will not buy a new one any more... I tried it and I was disappointed with it. It's a joke to me that they dropped the v8 when the others are doing v12's...

I get the EV thing but, a very respected car guy said, Moldered EVs are like cell phones, when the battery dies, you through it away..... When a tesla batery for a model S costs $22k, or even a Y costs $15K if you don't have the long range... Yea, I agree...

I wonder if your next vehicle will be an es top spec luxury lexus.

Can someone tell me if a top spec ES luxury Lexus has a lot of road noise in the cabin, my nx is nice, but it has a little to much road noise for my liking. The ES has a good reputation. I had a base model 250 ES for a loan vehicle a few weeks ago when my lexus was getting serviced and i was disappointed with it. It was ok at best.

I will be purchasing my first Lexus. The evil me wants the LS but the good me tells me the ES UL. I want the wow factor of the LS but not at the cost of reliability because I DO keep my vehicles till the wheels fall off. But my better half points me to the reliability of the ES 300h.... my question is did you feel at anytime that the 3.5 TT motor would not be reliable as the previous gen LS's. Or do you think the LS 500h has to many moving parts (aka the trans) for it to be reliable. I have noticed Toyota/Lexus keeps things simple. As the Laws of Physics will always stand true so will KEEPING IT SIMPLE = RELIABLE.

ES300H. My wife has this one.

Ill take it😂

Two years and he only has 21k kilometers or 12.6 k miles. Does he even drive this thing.
