In a recent video, Adam shows viewers a 2004 Lexus LS, stating that they may look somewhat old-fashioned but have some of the world&#8217;s best build quality.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/carlots.ng\/motoring\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/2004-Lexus-LS-interior-1.jpg\" alt=\"2004 Lexus LS interior\" class=\"wp-image-76857\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">2004 Lexus LS interior<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>He explained: &#8220;Now, Tesla owners will probably deny that this level of panel gap accuracy and overall build quality is even possible, but it is a Lexus. We are working to tolerances of a 1,000th of a millimetre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Honestly, forget <a href=\"http:\/\/carlots.ng\/motoring\/vehicles\/mercedes-benz-for-sale\">Mercedes-Benz<\/a> or even <a href=\"http:\/\/carlots.ng\/motoring\/vehicles\/rolls-royce-for-sale\">Rolls-Royce<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/carlots.ng\/motoring\/vehicles\/bentley-for-sale\">Bentley<\/a>. The only other car that we&#8217;ve ever come across with a higher tolerance of fit and finish is the Toyota Century, but this one comes extremely close.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Getting inside the car, Adam highlighted that Lexus researched various experts to make sure that elements of the interior such as the wood and leather were durable and looked attractive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He continued: &#8220;Look, everything in here just exudes immense quality. Actually, a fun fact, for all of the woodgrain that you can see, Lexus and Toyota went to high-end makers of guitars to hone their woodworking skills and get this exactly right.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"770\" height=\"499\" src=\"https:\/\/carlots.ng\/motoring\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/2004-Lexus-LS-dasboard.jpg\" alt=\"2004 Lexus LS dashboard\" class=\"wp-image-76858\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carlots.ng\/motoring\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/2004-Lexus-LS-dasboard.jpg 770w, https:\/\/carlots.ng\/motoring\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/2004-Lexus-LS-dasboard-300x194.jpg 300w, https:\/\/carlots.ng\/motoring\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/2004-Lexus-LS-dasboard-768x498.jpg 768w, https:\/\/carlots.ng\/motoring\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/2004-Lexus-LS-dasboard-750x486.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">2004 Lexus LS dashboard<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>&#8220;For each piece of wood, it took three weeks to sand and stain properly and it all came from the same tree, so it matches perfectly across each individual car.

It&#8217;s quicker and more sophisticated than last year&#8217;s model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 2004 Lexus LS is everything a flagship luxury sedan should be. Its ride is silky and its steering is liquid smooth. Inside is a beautiful interior with rich wood accents and buttery soft leather, seats so comfortable that you never think about them, and controls that are a paragon of ergonomic excellence. Lexus provides every convenience feature imaginable. Finding failings in this car devolves into whining about bland styling or nitpicking about the lack of inconsequential features such as being able to grind the starter when the engine is running. In other words, the Lexus LS 430 plays its role to near perfection. That role is of a smooth, luxurious sedan that whisks occupants along in supreme comfort, allowing the driver to concentrate on other, more pressing matters than the automobile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2004-lexus-ls-specification\">2004 Lexus LS specification<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>4.3L V-8 Engine<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>6-spd auto w\/OD Transmission<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>290 @ 5,600 rpm Horsepower<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>320 @ 3,400 rpm Torque<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rear-wheel Drive type<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>ABS and driveline Traction control<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1st row regular express open\/close sliding and tilting glass Sunroof<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>17&#8243; silver aluminum Wheels<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Front air conditioning, dual zone automatic<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>AM\/FM, seek-scan Radio<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Keyfob (all doors) Remote keyless entry<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Front Fog\/driving lights<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Heated mirrors<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Windshield wipers &#8211; rain sensing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Leather Seat trim<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Driver and passenger Lumbar support<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"770\" height=\"499\" src=\"https:\/\/carlots.ng\/motoring\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/2004-Lexus-LS-back-view.jpg\" alt=\"2004 Lexus LS back view\" class=\"wp-image-76860\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carlots.ng\/motoring\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/2004-Lexus-LS-back-view.jpg 770w, https:\/\/carlots.ng\/motoring\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/2004-Lexus-LS-back-view-300x194.jpg 300w, https:\/\/carlots.ng\/motoring\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/2004-Lexus-LS-back-view-768x498.jpg 768w, https:\/\/carlots.ng\/motoring\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/2004-Lexus-LS-back-view-750x486.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">2004 Lexus LS back view<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>The model year 2004 brings major changes to the LS: revised styling, suspension refinements, safety improvements, and mind-boggling technology.
