When looking at the used car market the opposite is true. Consistently Luxury models has less wear on their interiors than other models.

Default 2012 New to me!

Hey all, just picked up this beautiful GX with Cocoa Brown interior! Not the premium, but I do have gps as well as parking assist. 140k miles with an extensive service record! Single owner, no accidents. Everyone that hops in is purely impressed by the quality and resilience of the car.

This is the first car I purchase completely on my own and I couldn’t be any prouder! Will be reaching out to you guys in the years to come! 🤘🏼🤘🏼

Looks sharp. Remember, 140k on a Lexus is nothing, barely getting broken in.

Hello All!

Very new member here... in fact it hasn't even been delivered yet! Picked up a 16' Starfire Pearl Premium with 61k Miles. Was able to find one with all the options I wanted except MTS and Air suspension but pretty happy otherwise. I come from a 3rd gen 4runner that was built up pretty extensively so this is definitely a change for me! Excited to have nearly double the HP.

Default Hello World

DrivinEasy here, I ostensively purchased a 2017 premium GX 460 with 45,000 miles for my wife but I gotta tell you browsing the CL webverse has been a pleasurable revelation. I’m looking forward to the entire experience.

Hi all,
I bought my GX460 in Dec 2020 from a Dallas, TX dealer to tow and want to modify it to do more off road trips in NV/UT/CO/CA/etc. I had a 2013 VW Touareg V6 and used it to tow a 4000 lb boat and a little off roading (dirt/loose rock trails). It was a great every day driver and not bad for easy off roading, but wasn't great for towing the boat in heat of NV summers. I wanted the GX460 to get a reliable V8 to be able to tow and for weekend off road exploring.

1. 2014 Luxury
3. Ext - Starfire Pearl / Int - Ecru
2. Navigation, Mark Levinson
4. BSM/RCTA, park assist, tow pkg

Off road item list to add/mod: all terrain tires, rock sliders and maybe cbi front bumper mod.... one at a time. The rear air suspension is great for auto leveling when towing the boat, but I can't figure out why Lexus wouldn't have adaptive / air suspension for the front and rear (like the Toyota Land Cruiser). I think the Land Cruiser Prado (overseas version of GX460) also only has rear air suspension, but wish it had front and rear air suspension.

Thanks for having a great forum to help newbies like me figure out how to keep their Lexus for 200k mi...

Just picked up our new 2021 GX 460 with the Executive package . We just upgraded from a well loved 2008 4Runner Urban Runner to the GX.
The GX is much better suited for trailer towing and our extended trips. In Canada we have two choices, Base and Executive, the Executive includes the lip spoilers, Multi Terrain select modes with Monitor with Underfloor View ,Panoramic View Monitor,Power Folding Third Row Seats (60/40), Mark Levinson 7.1 Channel Surround Sound, 19" Alloy Wheels, P265/55R19, Front Console Cool Box, Transmission Fluid Cooler, Trailer Hitch. Colour is Starfire Pearl with the Sepia Semi-Aniline Leather interior. We waited 6 months for the factory delivery and it was worth every minute of the wait.
