Hello guys i have been debating upgrading my 06 RL later this year and wanted to know if any one here has considered the Lexus LS 460 F when shopping the new RLX Hybrid?

Regards

 

I have a LS600h. The new LS460F is even nicer than what I have.


RLX isn't even in the same class of car...


Go drive both, answer will be obvious.

 

I have recently been looking at them. I saw a 2014 with 10,000 miles that went for $49,000 (F) package. I will certainly take a test drive when possible its a beautiful car and plenty for that depreciated price.

 

Look at them VERY carefully when you look at them used. There are TONS of option packages some cars have, and thus prices can be all over the place.

I will be replacing my LS6 at the end of this year (long in the tooth).


New LS is around the corner, FYI


Good luck

 

460 > RLxH

 

The one thing I hate about Lexus...too many option packages. People can say what they want too about Acura, but at least the package options are simple (Tech, Advance). And Acura's Advance Package sure does add alot of bang for your buck.

 

Agree 100%

It isn't an issue when you buy new, but when buying used, it is VERY hard to compare models, especially since salespeople have no clue.

My LS6 has the rear seat package (full recline, massage). Many will advertise as seat package, when it isn't so.

ALso Lexus changes names of packages, which is horrendous.

Then again, compared to Porsche, Lexus is easy

 

The RLXh should be a much more engaging drive. It's a lux cruiser you can throw into the corners. However, depending on how Acura responds to the few owners in the next year, you may be a beta tester. It's a brand new car that has some kinks to work out.

Current gen LS will be a solid car.

 

hello Mr. Tea

i found the attached article about the Lexus LS 600h when i was shopping for RLX Hybrid alternatives hope it helps.

 

Thanks but i am looking at the 460F the 600 is way way out of my league and $.

I would not be looking to purchase new but pre-owned.

Thanks

 

Test-drove the 460LS (F) I must say I was not as blown away as I though. The interior is gorgeous but I was expecting a (WOW) factor, which was not present. For a car which cost $87.000+with a V8 and 386hp it never felt that way.

They have also launched the 2015 Lexus 460 Crafted Line Edition, which comes with black door handles, black side mirrors, black rims and a two-tone interior. If I had to choose base on comfort, interior and quiet...the LS hands down. But based on everyday driving and dynamics and power I would have to say RLX HYBRID.
