What’s special about this listing
1991 Lexus LS400 – The Original “Mercedes Killer” – 219k Miles
For sale is a 1991 Lexus LS400, the car that launched Lexus in the United States and famously became known as the “Mercedes Killer.” When this car debuted, it shocked the automotive world with its engineering, quiet ride, and build quality that rivaled — and in many ways surpassed — Mercedes and BMW at the time.
This is a true piece of automotive history and a future classic. The first-generation LS400 is known for its legendary 4.0L V8, incredible reliability, and one of the smoothest rides ever put in a sedan. These cars routinely go 300k+ miles when maintained.
Clean title, always kept in garage preserving original interior. Scrape on front right, interior panel missing on driver's seat belt, windshield wiper tank needs to be replaced.
