2005 Lexus LS Pros and Cons at TrueDelta: Owner Pros and Cons by delmer

Ride smoothness

With the sport suspension there is no Buick/Lexus wallow or lean, one can hussle on mountian roads. Some harshness on bumps with the 45 series. Chasis is vault solid.

Safety & braking

Brakes are easy to modulate in quick stops, feel powerfull. Like the numerous airbags.

Reliability & durability

Built like a vault, no repair/failures. Only gripe is battery discharge after 4 or 5 days not running.

Quietness

Too quiet, wish for more V8 sound. Mark Levinson is better than my home system, tho.

Price or payments

Was expensive used compared to Germans, Lexus dealers hard to negotiate with.
