Used 2004 Lexus GX 470

Buying Guide for the Lexus GX 470:

Lexus has two full-size luxury SUVs in the line-up. The smaller of these two is based on the Toyota 4Runner. The 2004 Lexus GX 470 gives a medium-sized ride that is useful off-road as well as in the city, with some advantages over its big brother, the LX 470, in terms of parking and a slight mileage advantage. However, small is relative only compared to full-size SUVs. It is a hardy off-road beast with real rough country capability and a sense of comfort for sandy, snowy or other rugged environments.

The Lexus GX 470 will get you there every time, wherever you are going. But, like the rest of Lexus, this is only half the story. Lexus is a luxury vehicle line that acts as a testing ground for luxury amenities and the GX 470 reflects this. Fine award-winning vehicles with great performance, safety and luxury, the Lexus line appeals to those with money who expect to get their money’s worth.

Under the Hood

Performance-wise the Lexus GX 470 definitely holds its own in the full-size SUV class, sharing the powertrain and performance technology of its big brother the LX 470 but with a little less bulk, meaning it actually has a bit more pep and agility. The GX 470 has Lexus’ exclusive adaptive variable suspension. As for towing beefiness and a engine power, the dynamo under the hood of the 2004 Lexus GX 470 is 4.7-liter V8 that pumps out 235 hp at 4800rpm and can generate an impressive 320 lbs-ft of torque at 3400, giving it significant towing power and a reasonable 15 to 18 mpg.

Adaptive-variable and height-adjustable suspension match with standard antiskid and traction control to enhance off-road action and with the limited slip center and rear differentials, combine to make the 470 a convincing rough country star. However, it will also manage 0-60 in 7.7 seconds: 1.3 seconds faster than the LX.

Standard Features, Options Packages and Style

As for standard features, as one would expect, the Lexus LX 470 is chock a block with included luxuries, including: front air conditioning with dual-zone automatic climate controls, power tilt/telescoping wood/leather-wrapped steering wheel with audio controls, cruise control, leather upholstery, heated front bucket seats, 10-way power driver seat, 4-way power passenger seat, memory settings, wood interior trim, heated power mirrors, power windows, door locks, sunroof, in-dash 6-disc CD changer, rear radio controls, digital clock, tachometer, trip computer, and rain-sensing wipers, automatic headlights.

The optional in-dash navigation system and DVD provides entertainment and safety for long trips.
