The 1997 Lexus LX for buyers
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 1997 Lexus LX for sale by us right now. This page helps you judge the 1997 Lexus LX before you buy one anywhere.
Before you sign for the LX
A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.
Specs, explained
Its powertrain is the 4.5L 6-cylinder with all-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. All-wheel drive sends power to all four wheels, which helps on snow and wet roads; good tires still matter most.
A combined rating of 18.1 L/100 km works out to about 54 litres per 300 km. For 1,000 km, budget about $280.60 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$5,150 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.
What the LX is like
As a van, it puts space for people and luggage first.
A longer test drive
Try the LX on your commute, then decide. Rent first, buy later: a week with the LX answers the big questions. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel.
Narrowing it down
A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Within the 1997 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.
What it costs to run
Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
