LS with 900,000 Miles
OK, it's not the LS460, but I think that it's still appropriate to post here since it's about longevity of our "flagship" Lexus cars.
"What is the measure of a car? Is it the sum of its parts? Is it the experiences that we have in the backseat as nervous, hormonally-charged youths? Or is it all of the above, with a sprinkling of a characterful inability to die? /DRIVE and The Smoking Tire host Matt Farah set out to find the answers to these clearly pertinent questions. If you've been following him, as you should, you'll know that he purchased a 1996 Lexus LS400 with a hair under 900,000 actual miles on it from a guy in Florida for $1,500 with plans on getting it to a million miles just to see what would happen. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, this counts as a job."

You sir are correct, CL member sheff442 reported last March he had over 333K at the time. I know it was used as a limo for a couple of years before he owned it.
