From my past experience owning a 97 LS400, I must say the 95-97 Ls400's are the Strongest Material Made Lexus Ever as far as structure and craftsmanship goes. This is the era when Toyota made a lot of money and poured a lot of it back it into the 95-97 ls400. Everything feels more solid and the craftsmanship was at its best in this era, Speed and performance came in the later era's
95-97 had a stronger hood, glass headlamps,more reinforced steel structure,Bigger Steering Wheel etc......Just my opinion guys, to each his/her own.
lol the "steel structure" is pretty much the same, the steering wheel size is pretty much the same (although how that would affect safety I still don't understand...) , glass headlamps aren't really a safety feature when the '98-00 have better light output, and where did you get that the hood was stronger, the basic construction is the same.
and lets not even get into airbags/stability control....
i have a 97 and i like the 98-up cars more. i don't think lexus compromised too much during the manufacturing process on these cars, especially the flagship of their brand . my tape player still works!
