IMO: 430's are going to run forever-eva....mileage means nothing when it comes to this car. If there is any car that a company built too well it is the LS430! When the 430 comes to mind I think bulletproof first then other pros follow, it is a rare gem (product wise) that comes around in a lifetime especially for 2nd & 3rd owners.

This thread would be even more helpful if the owners with high miles would mention what significant repairs or maintanance was done during their ownership. I'd be curious to see how many miles some owners have gone before timing belt/water pump replacement. We know the engines and transmissions for the most part are indestructable.

2006 LS430 black/black 114,000 miles.
Bought it with 96K. Cleaned mirror switch, cleaned cabin intake air sensor, swapped air filter for K&N unit and installed VAIS sound system.
At initial purchase changed timing belt and water pump. Changed rear differential fluid, trans fluid and radiator fluid. $600 total.
Needs to have front clip repainted due to rock chips.
