When the Lexus LX 470 was first released, it was a pretty obvious choice for luxury sports utility vehicle. However, over the years while its rivals have changed and the LX 470 has stayed basically the same, it no longer fits that niche, and is probably only worthy of being considered a third or fourth choice when choosing from such options. It is still very much a competent car and fits well with the aspect of luxury, but it fails to do so to the extent that its enemies do.
There are a few changes for the 2007 model year, but not very many. It is pretty much the same, as it has been for the last few years. New standards on crash tests took a beating on the powerful V8, which now lacks in that area. Still, it performs just the same, although no better. There was a new trim level added, the Limited Edition, which has Black Onyx paint, better wheels, and a different kind of exterior and interior trim.
Here are the pros of the 2007 Lexus LX 470:
- it comports itself silently and with class.
- works well off the road
- adjustable suspension
- great materials used to decorate the interior
- it’s a Lexus!
As for the downside:
- not much room in the third row
- costs Lexus prices without Lexus looks
