Buying the 1999 Lexus LS
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 1999 Lexus LS for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. This page puts the 1999 Lexus LS in plain words for buyers: what it uses, what to check, and how to try one first.
Recalls and complaints
Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Owners filed 25 complaints with NHTSA, most often about vehicle speed control, electrical system and structure; have those parts checked. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.
What the specs mean
It is powered by the 4.0L 8-cylinder, with rear-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
Fuel use is rated 12.4 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 37 litres. At our price setting, 1,000 km costs about $217. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$4,350 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Is it right for your trip?
It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size.
Space, size and seats
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. At 396 litres, the trunk fits about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
A longer test drive
Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. A test week in the LS tells you more than any review.
Year and trim
Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
Money matters
At our price setting, 100 km costs about $21.70 in fuel. The EPA estimates US$4,350 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $217 at our price setting.
