I (21f) went to the dealership with my Grandpa to go purchase his tacoma. Saw this baby and couldn’t leave without her (red seats was the nail in the coffin for me)
Financially dumb, maybe…but i’m telling myself most people my age would buy something dumb like a BMW😅😅 At least this car will last me for ages!
2021 V8, picked her up with just 42k on the dash
I only recently even discovered this cars existence about a month ago, but ive quickly fallen in love with it.
Im looking for a 2023 460 however there are a few things making me hesitant.
- I live in Brooklyn and would be street parking every day, however i never have trouble finding a spot
- The MPG
- The cost. Around 52-57k for what im looking at
- I love the look of these when they’re used for off-roading but would only ever be in NYC and Long Island/NJ for the most part. I would be tempted to cut the bumpers and put a lift kit on etc. and it could be bad for resale
If anyone has experience with buying one and could help me make a decision that would be greatly appreciated!

I’m trying to find a roof light setup for my GX550 that has this look, but I’d rather avoid generic AliExpress or no-name Chinese brands.
Does anyone know of a US-made or well-known manufacturer that makes something similar?
Just wanted to say thank you for the help guys, I ended up selling my raptor and Jeep for a GX. After going back and forth between this and a X5 we happened to find a nice cpo 2020 with 78k miles. It was a little more than I wanted to spend but it was on great condition and cpo. Ended up getting it at $39k but got a few k more on trade than what carmax was going to give me so not bad. Now to drive the wheels off it! It’s going to match my white C8 Z06 nicely!
I’ve never messed with fixing minor blemishes but came out to a decent ding through the paint on the drivers side rear door. Quoted all around $2k to repair. I’ll be parking in the boonies from here on out.
Bought at auction (red light from a Jag dealer in FL) in 2020 with 160k miles.
She arrived with a golf course membership sticker and a radar detector installed in the grill.
Immediately installed new Bilsteins and Pirellis after purchase due to miles.
Recently reupholstered driver seat, paid for valley plate job, and added "Viknav" CarPlay/Android Auto unit
Paid roughly $21k total thus far.
The best vehicle on the road. (And anything that came out of that factory.)
There's a 470 near me that needs some work but is cheap
My wife wants a 460 but used they’re $20,000 more
What are biggest differences? We need a 7 seater
Pups happy for the holiday getaway, cheers GX friends!
I have a 2019 Lexus GX 460 with 84,000 miles and am interesting in finding the most reputable warranty company to put 3 or 4 years and 36k to 48k miles of warranty on the car.
Since my car is past 50k, I dont quality for Lexus Platinum coverage. Any recommendations and personal experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Spent a bit of time researching options and knew I wanted and integrated solution. This unit had decent reviews on Amazon and with what sounded like authentic install experiences. What I liked about this unit is that it has digital output which is sent to the Mark Levinson Amp, and this affects the installation strategy as you use the ML Amp fader, and the sound is shaped by the ML Amp eq, gain and speed control settings. After a lot of tweaking and a professional install I am happy with the results. The look and feel is OEM and while I don’t love the Android OS the CarPlay is very usable and the sound quality is better than any aux or FM modulated Bluetooth adapter that I tried prior to the install. If anyone is interested I can share the settings that I came up with to yield decent audio quality.
Did a road trip to visit my family in NC from Michigan… about 700 miles. Stopped once for gas. Did ALMOST 400 miles on a tank of gas… averages about 75-80 mph on highways with some stop and go traffic.
2013 GX460, with new tires and alignment (Michelin defender LTX M/S2) and the f sport rims. I think this setup is the best that it can do for gas mileage, except maybe removing the spare wheel.
Thinking about test driving this bad boy on this hot summer day. Currently mid lease on a 25 camry and it stinks. However I am curious to know a few things:
Is this a luxury trim? Carecarenut said to look for the molding on the back windows and it looks to be a luxury? He also said to avoid the air suspension which id rather do.
Is 89k miles a bit high? I will be daily thing for a period of time, maybe even 30 miles a day. NYC driving?
And from what I have seen here 31k is a high price, what do you think a reasonable price is to try and negotiate for in general?
I have owned an audi a4, bmw x3 and lexus NX so I am very familiar with the premium gas and luxury car tax so thats not a worry. I just want a something close to a Land Cruiser as possible. Or maybe ill wait for a good deal on a new 250. Anyway would appreciate any thoughts.
I was just pumping gas and I swear I hit 93, but halfway through I saw it had 89 lit up. I was in empty and put less than a half a tank in before I realized and stopped. Should I put 93 in there to fill up or burn this gas first? Is this going to mess anything up?
Saw an 08 470 on Craigslist, timing belt done less than 30k since timing belt, airbags rebuilt by last po. I’m super sensitive to rust, maybe too much so, so I passed on this, but - worth considering for the right price? Seller dropped to 8k and seemed open to more.
Worst areas are under the rad support TT and the changed shaped/notching of the pan hard connector.
