2008 Lexus LS460 Start Up, Engine, and In Depth Tour

[SWApilot94]

I also love the auto door shut feature, but the one thing i loved probably the most was the button on the bottom left of the steering wheel. When i came to the stop, the guy said push that button and now take your foot off the brake and the car remained stationary...I'm telling you people, this car is absolutely incredible and is well worth $35-$40K

[SWApilot94]

I just got to drive one of these the other day and this car is like nothing from this world... If you're all out on having a badass V8, saving on mpg's, and being lazy, then this is the car for you (and me i wish). I know the car in this video is quiet, but trust me, when you're driving,...it's loud..and when i was driving with the auto stick, i kept shifting up saying holy shit, how many gears does this thing have? and the owner says eight and said he gets around 22MPG.

[hershey022390]

STOP being cheap and go buy the mercedes s550 for a few grand more and call it a day.

[Annihilator1111]

the transmission on the 2006-present Lexus LS

Transmission

8-speed AA80E automatic

8-speed L110F CVT

[racehorse7669]

notice how well the car insulates the outside noise at 7:12, when he opens the door u hear how loud it is in the lot

[heartlessvietboy]

The 1URFSE Engine on the 2006 Lexus LS430 is a good engine.

[dyerkhalim123]

iLike That It Can Park ItsSelf

[EID1994ALBASSA]

Doesn't the song in the background remind you of Grown Ups? :p

[24s157]

is there a major different between the LS460 and LS460 L ?

[evanbella99]

@24s157 LS460 L is longer and more expensive.

[dyerkhalim123]

iHavee This But In The 600HL Version And The Thing iHate Most About These Cars Are How Slow The Trunk Opens And Closes.

[v8iludi]

someday... she'll be mine.. someday... :)

[lexyota]

I had The Original Lexus, a 1991 Toyota Cressida ...now I have this BEAST !!!

[SocraticMind89]

@lexyota you mean an LS400?

[M67v]

10 people didn't own this extravagant vehicle and instead got a  low-rent (or should I say) sophisticated Chevrolet Cobolt (The car is actually called a Chevrolet Shitmobile) with an extravagant 2.2 liter 4cyl

[925shah]

wow i was looking @ the price of this car and damn $45,000 that's a lot just hope they drop it too $30,000 SOON!!

[Jiqsaw08]

German Cars are better

[925shah]

@Jiqsaw08 okay i just have a ? for you if you think german car's are better then why are you here looking @ a lexus ....... makes no since!

[lexyota]

@Jiqsaw08 yea at breaking down.

[LightButDark575]

@Jiqsaw08 Agreed. I personally prefer BMW and Mercedez-Benz over Lexus. Lexus just seems so plain to me.

[dvspot]

@Jiqsaw08 German cars are better interms of performance. But Lexus is more reliable, will last longer I gaurantee you.

[maxxbad17]

@dvspot if you wanna buy a good german car e.g a merc, the AMG ones are the best, but it cost a lot of money, but lexus are same luxury which is more affordable!!

[FoundingNemo]

do you like pina coladas?

[techluvr1234]

Most beautiful and well-rounded car in existence IMO.

[wilsonkm]

Even with the driver window down a good part of the outdoor noise is blocked off. That blew my mind like crazy. Then you put up the window and you can't even hear anything outside. Talk about the pursuit of perfection.

[backintack]

I wanna Pina Colada!

[mahidmalik7]

Just love my car

[hehh543]

idk why there's a middle seat in the back. the center hump is HUGE.. no one is able to sit there . lol

[swatsticker]

this car is fucking awesome, and in ten years all of these electronics will still be working. gawd

[form109]

Damn that startup was SILENT.

[ninjamoto21]

whats the name of the song 3:24-3:31?

[Tural440]

kyle do you have a job

[Darksep03]

@Tural440 he's a pharmacy student

[Motorfordtoyota]

Absolutely LOVE this car!

[Jonolau1]

wheres the gauge swevle

[form109]

@Jonolau1 as far as i know the IS is the only lexus that does the gauge sweep upon startup.

[bentleyv8t]

whats the song at 5:36? cant remember the name.

[proni1]

@bentleyv8t all i know that it was in goodfellas

[tcben]

What's song on 11.10 ? Thank you in advance!

[5voodoo5]

Hey Man Nice Vid :) , Can Yu Tell Me Current Price Of This Car?

[raboo369]

i think u made a really good video of the car.. it was very explanatory

[Supramaniac24]

the vaccum shut thing is old, had it on our 2001 like i said in previous videos...love the car! keep up the great work!

[Annihilator1111]

the 2006-present Lexus LS460 is assembled in

Tahara, Aichi, Japan

[MegaFLAMEWAR]

Ahhhh... Derick and the Dominoes on one of the best speakers in a car. Perfect!

[EpicPhail23]

@MegaFLAMEWAR i hope you know they use the mark levinson sound system. What is derrick and dominoes?

[tnguyen318]

I rate the 2011 Lexus LS460 a 9 out of 10. 9 out of 10 is a very good rating. It is very well detailed and crafted.

[ditimedia93]

is this awd?

[BrianXD16]

i really like the lexus ls models they are really nice cars

[Motorfordtoyota]

Id still buy this over all of the Competition. I mean really, a Hyundia equus, wtf with the name. German cars breakdown alot. Buick is FWD 4 banger, and the Cadillac would be my second choice. Extremely nice car.

[m25746793]

all automatic windows? really?

[datpimpinboy]

cheap copy of the S class

[xvrhernandez349]

@datpimpinboy psh, this is so much better than the s-class

[datpimpinboy]

@xvrhernandez349 uhum sure

[xvrhernandez349]

@datpimpinboy oh it is, 30k cheaper, same horsepower touch screen navi. what does the s-class have that this doesnt?

[datpimpinboy]

@xvrhernandez349 You get what u pay for. 30K thousand less gets u a cheap ass copy of the true luxury sedan. Does not perform nearly as the s class (ive tested driven both) not as safe, not same quality, not the same anything. But go ahead, buy the Lexus, since you are such a conformist. Meanwhile, ill get myself a true luxury car which by itself has a lot more history than the whole Lexus brand.

[xvrhernandez349]

@datpimpinboy you do realize every luxury sedan is a copy of another right? the s-class interior is boring and this is so much more driver friendly

[datpimpinboy]

@xvrhernandez349 Uhm the S class is the original, first true luxury sedan. You cant argue that with me.

[xvrhernandez349]

@datpimpinboy really? -_-

[datpimpinboy]

@xvrhernandez349 yea. 

[datpimpinboy]

@xvrhernandez349 btw lookin at ur profile i see we have similar taste in music but very different taste in cars lol

[xvrhernandez349]

@datpimpinboy lol, thats interesting

[datpimpinboy]

@xvrhernandez349 yup.

[MrDeerecub1977]

look at the fit of the hood and doors.perfect

[jamie88694]

Love this car shame there over 30K to buy :(

[Volume1216]

this video has like the best songs in the random background from the dealer, nice vid dude!

[ToxicAnthem]

does anyone know a website where i can order a stereo wiring harness for a 1994 lexus es300?

[MrLocalman123]

i hate the music how can we hear you if your talking and music is on??? !!!

[andreakatickles1]

I have an 08' GS460, but I really find the 2007-2009 LS460 much sexier than my GS460. I'm not too fund of the 2010 LS460 the way they thin out the front bumper and change the rear lights detail. Thanks for the demo, well done. Respect my youth.

[AdThaDon2k8]

@andreakatickles1 yea man i totally get on the 460s revision those big tail lights with the amber on them which is a cue for the lexus F division and the larger more promient grill looks a little "ugly' not by a long shot but thats off set by its new features like the sport package which they need to put a wood grain wheel and make a Long wheel base version of it

[heartlessvietboy]

I like the Lexus GS460 interior. Navigation Screen looks more LiVeLier and CoLorFuL. Response time when pushing the screen is much quicker than the LS and many other Luxury cars. Center Command Console is Flush and Nice. Choice of Wood in the Car is amazing.

[Calimustang86]

Hehehe hmmm is it just me or does anyone else find this car really nice looking but extremely boring at the same time? Lyk seriously.. Haha its nice tho.. But thats about it

[BrianXD16]

hey can you also make you a video of your own car i wanna see that also

[dabisnit]

i loved everything about this video...except the music :p (Derick and the Dominoes was good though)

but i really do LOVE the Lexus LS460L, it is so sexy. besides that, i think you need to do the 2011 LS460L. The LS is the only car that fits my tall self (6'6) all the others had the rear view mirror in my line of sight (minor safety issue)

[smellytoilet1996]

I'm curious how it will look like a decade later compared to future Lexus'

[AdThaDon2k8]

@smellytoilet1996 like the original ls400

[Gil8199]

isn't this car associated with the toyota camry somehow??

[Hackiesacker007]

@Gil8199 no, the ES is based on the Camry.

[Gil8199]

@Hackiesacker007 oh because the tail lights look similar to the camry, thanks! btw

[Hackiesacker007]

@Gil8199 no problem, that's one of the biggest gripes that people have about it is that the rear end of the LS, looks very similar to the ES, which costs nearly half as much.

[xvrhernandez349]

i absolutely love this car! damnit if i had the money this would be the top of my "shopping list" :)

[ViEtNaMeSe321]

about the door shutting itself, is it only on the LS's?

[Hackiesacker007]

@ViEtNaMeSe321 yes.

[amirforman]

Too much background noise!!!!

[Thesuperblack22]

When he was doin the bluetooth thing, it would be funny if after he said thank you, it was like, your welcome. That would be a huge turning point in technology

[TheMarkc]

@Thesuperblack22 your welcome

[BAflyer12]

Don't get me wrong, I think this is an amazing car. But why would you want the backseat passengers to be able to control your seat?

[6589justin]

I like this car!! I check your channel every day for new videos!!

[30293430]

you are smart guy ............ thanks a lot

[Pendragon1989]

I don't like the pushbutton start, Can't someone just hop in, push the button, and drive off?

[AdThaDon2k8]

@Pendragon1989 u have to have the key with u

[MrRichierich1990]

kinda looks like your es350, beautiful car.

[krissuR8]

man this is absolutely fantastic car,so many functions :-0 oh god,thank you kyle for the tour! you have really good videos :)

[MultiSkittles18]

ok this is my dream car, my whole family said to just buy a toyota but toyota doesnt look like this, and it doesnt have the looks or style of the 460. i would take the regular version but i would really like to have the hybird version, i just wish i could test drive this for a day or two.

That would be my dream and i would do almost anything to test drive one.

[thurkeyyy]

@MultiSkittles18 u mean anything...:P...LOL

[1bentley4ever]

To appreciate these cars, you MUST step inside and feel the surfaces. Soft, padded leather on the doors, super soft leather seats with memory foam padding, it's just a symphony of beauty. Black is still in my opinion the best color to get the interior in.

[AdThaDon2k8]

it doesnt have a tape deck? i saw a cnet review n they guy said he has a tape deck in order to intergarte it with the ipod connectiviety or sumthing sorry for the mispellings

[liming5]

160?!? Damn, I'd love to get it goin' that fast lol.

[donlee20066]

I wonder y they put so much plastic under the hood lol

[AdThaDon2k8]

its for noise or engine noise reduction

[AdThaDon2k8]

and its easier to clean plus it looks professional

[vVeazel]

Please turn that music off next time :)

[boycharger1]

boy lexus make sexy cars 2 bad when i start driving they'll probably have redesigned the LS

[Goldenrod636]

I really like how good the Lexus's look and I also like the good quality leather and a very pretty interior.

[rootbeerfan6]

Kyle You act like you know your way around this car. I wonder why? Being a smart butt.

[wildareel]

Hey Kyle,

Can you please try and review a 2000-2006 BMW 3 series cabrio or coupe?

Cheers

[exoticcar2009]

Most Amazing Lexus EVER. Nice video! 5*

[sina92]

wow that just looks so well built

[chrisced007]

Hey Kyle. Did that Lexus have aftermarket window tint? I couldn't tell in the video.

[infinity3jif]

this is the Lexus with the parking assist system

[1bentley4ever]

@infinity3jif Yep, but it is optional unless you get the 120,000 dollar hybrid LS600hl

[lexusES350h]

this car doesn't look american.. i'd still call it japanese x_x

[Capt421]

Very Nice video. Subscribe to mine. I'm uploading more videos of Start Ups & Tour of more vehicles

[rob16875]

cant wait to see what the new Cadillac XTS looks like

[loneknight97]

my neighbor's car! They've got a 2007 Lexus LS460 in black and silver trim. It's really nice and I carpool with them and their son (who's my best friend) to school every day, so the seats are really nice and the car drives so well

[APR846]

Excellent proof of japanese car industry.

BTW, it would be nice to see a Legend on your channel Kyle!

[saabkyle04]

@APR846 already have one, a 1994, check it out!

[Devilshionfly]

@saabkyle04 i have a question, the shift lever ( auto) of my civic moves straight down and up in the same line, but i see in this video that the lever of this car is not straight in a line, what is the reason and advantage of this, thanks!!!!!! Waiting for the reply,

Sorry for my bad english.

[Verification11]

@saabkyle04  you bought is350 ??? what happend to the genesis coupe ??

[briguymeister]

@Verification11 He made this video before he got the Genesis coupe. The ES350 was the car he had at the time of this video.

[streamline75]

@APR846 it really is an american car

LEXUS is just the American divison

of toytoa basicly and the actual toyota cars

are imported by boat from japan

[tnguyen318]

How is the Japanese Automotive Industry? Do you know much about Lexus and its Company?

[Stereophile11]

now that's a car

[HyperbirdF6]

awesome car

[flyerholland]

soo fucking luxuriuos!!!!!!!!

[mabdiuhrman]

my career dream car....

[7477238]

Kyle this should be your next car. One of the worlds quietest cars. If I remember right Inside Line said the car has an interior noise level of less than 60dB on the highway.

[talldude123]

I'll admit, good MPG for a large sized car!

[talldude123]

I would take a Hyundai Genesis over this one anyday

[zakyum]

Best car in the world, well I think anyways :)

[TJC450]

A lot of technology for one car!

And I was blown away when he turned the air and set the temperature with the voice commands.

[briguymeister]

@TJC450 If you think that was cool, check out the videos he has on his channels with all the voice commands he can do with his ES350.

[crystalscan2002]

duhhh 90k car vs 40k car :P i could make it noisyer hehe, take of all that plasic covering :D

[crystalscan2002]

this is the car the i want :) , so kyle can you buy me one for my birthday is apr

[thecarexpert18]

what is the price of this car?

[talldude123]

@thecarexpert18 Well, new, betwen $65 to 74,000. So for this particular one, maybe $58,000?

[thecarexpert18]

Oh... MY... Gosh... now thats what i call FANCY!

[gbnnn]

looks like the car you drive

[1964mm]

11:10 That song is the most annoying song ever. It got on my nerves just watching the video. In case someone actually likes it, it's called Photograph by Nickelback...

[jameslinton50]

i can't believe the engine cover its disgusting! But over all the LS460 is a very nice car.

[BRIGH58]

My favourite luxury sedan.

[celsovera91]

It's 2010 and I don't know why Lexus still makes cars (mostly the GS and ES) with cassette decks.

[saabkyle04]

@celsovera91 if you look they actually don't anymore

[torogami2]

@celsovera91 they were trying to market to older people who would still have casettes. which is sad if that's the only customers you can get

[tnguyen318]

LOL.

[tnguyen318]

Cassette Deck to me means Class. I guess that's a valid argument. The GS450 interior cannot be beaten. The ES350 interior has got to be the cleanest interior out there to date.

[teeituprt]

Awesome car and review. You outdid yourself. It's too bad that dealership blasts that music so loud that your comments are obscured. They should cut that audio level by about half! So annoying when businesses overdo it with overly loud music; it turns most people off.

[briguymeister]

If I had the money, I would so go out and by this car. It is so freaking awesome. Nice tour Kyle. I love the auto open and auto close trunk and the auto close door feature is awesome.

[AdThaDon2k8]

thank u thank thank u Kyle! Finally my dream car and u just made the best in depth your on youtube this is hopefully my car of the future peep my ls400 and can ya give me tips and what not im kinda new at this but if so thanks! ;]

[kohl2011]

The absolute expression of prefection! I still like your Lexus more, Kyle!

[OTHGirlsForever]

I have never seen such a secluded engine before! HAHA

Other than that, this car is absolutely beautiful. I drive a 2002 Avalon and I can barely look at it after seeing this car LOL

I also love the automatic door close... I just recently discovered that certain cars drop the windows a tiny bit when you open the car door (like the Mustang and the 911 you videoed) and that is so cool! My friend's GranTurismo does that too.

[uhustic4545]

i just dont like how the engine is soo coverd up the car is very nice! so high tech for 2008 ? does it just have that vaccum thing on the driver door and passenger door?

[1bentley4ever]

I noticed the voice-controlled computer has a different voice than your car and gets to business faster with taking your commands. The hardest part: Lexus LS460L or the Mercedes S550? S550 is prettier, but Lexus is beautiful to live with in the long run. You gotta listen to quality stuff like Clapton with this car's stereo.

[1bentley4ever]

Your ES350 has come to meet its big brother!

[xxsheat]

5* always, but I miss seeing videos of your car. It amazes me how clean and nice it always is

[SuperSportSS]

Aww. I wanted to hear the engine with a stuck throttle...Keep up the great videos Kyle. We all appreciate your hard work.

[ghost1103]

im obbsessed with this car....its sooo cool.....i really like the 600h

[UNBOXINGCAR]

Me too, what's that episode of "DESPERATE HOUSEWIFES" where Bree buy a brand new LS?

[ghost1103]

uhhh idk hahah i dont watch that show

[ep1adam]

SAMEE!!!

[boycharger1]

@ghost1103 me 2 i like the ls600hl lexus and mercedes are the best

[randomrazr]

but the 2007 model is wayy better eh saabkyle ? LOL

[AdThaDon2k8]

the 07 is virtually the same

[landyachtfan79]

Rupert Holmes : Escape FTFW!!!!!!!

[1bentley4ever]

That red stained wood is damn gorgeous. IDK about that corny music, though.

[1bentley4ever]

@1bentley4ever Some of the music.

[1bentley4ever]

The Lexi are sooooo quiet. I've been raring to see an LS video Kyle! great job!

[kmart7843]

wow, the engines covers are ugly plus the only thing they do is trap the heat of the engine, every new car that i have owned i have taken off the engine covers

[humanparody12]

It's almost unnerving just how quiet the interior is...

[MrRichierich1990]

i never seen the door closing by itself before. learn something new everyday, dont we.

[humanparody12]

I love that song!

[MrRichierich1990]

looks like your car lol
