Used 2004 Lexus LS 430

Buying Guide for the Lexus LS 430:

The flagship sedan of the Lexus line is the 2004 LS 430, a car of luxury, style and performance. This year the performance has been enhanced following a trend found in many Lexus models toward faster, more powerful vehicles with more aggressive performance characteristics. On the LS 430 this means 6-speed automatic transmission with manual shift gate to replace the 5-speed. Joining this is an optional Sport Package that includes a firm Euro-Tuned Suspension and 18-inch wheels to replace standard 17s.

Safety has also been upgraded with driver and front-passenger knee airbags joining the usual complement of join head-protecting curtain side airbags and front torso side airbags.

Under the Hood

Performance is one of the keys to Lexus distinction. The LS 430 has a 4.3-liter V8 engine that puts out a solid 290 hp and 320lb-ft of torque. This is teamed with a computer controlled 5-speed automatic transmission capable of 60mph in only 6.3 seconds.

Intuitive Powertrain Control works with the electronic throttle control (drive by wire) to smooth out acceleration and Shift Logic Control allows the 5-speed automatic transmission to respond to road grade and acceleration/deceleration activity. Meanwhile, other features optimize handling and help the driver in emergencies and/or poor driving conditions. Antilock brakes (ABS) with Brake Assist and Vehicle Skid Control (VSC) are both standard.

Standard Features, Options Packages and Style

The major options packages add to an already extensive collection of standard interior amenities. Additions for 2004 include a tire-pressure monitor, steering-linked headlights, and power rear sunshade. Other options include heated/cooled rear seats and a rearview TV camera that displays on the dash-mounted navigation system screen for reversing.

The DVD-based Lexus Navigation System with seven-inch screen and voice-command control, front climate control seats with heating and cooling controls, heated and cooled rear seats, power trunk and door closers are just a few of the available features but even more is available through the addition of any of several packages. These give the choice of several leather types and colors for the upholstery, along with a range of other choices that will lead toward a personalized machine.
