I have 277,801 miles on my 2004 Ls. The most recent repair was replacing the radiator fans that stopped operating. Currently my navigation screen doesn't respond accurately when it's pressed. I have tried to trade her in numerous times but the car hasn't given me a good reason to do it. I almost traded her for the new Xj. I equate the LS with a wife who is not the prettiest, the sex may be average and she may have gained a few pounds. But she cooks, cleans, takes care of the kids, caters to your needs, works and will never divorce you. Damn I love my LS.

2002 bought it with 134k and just got to 180k. I always have friends comment how comfortable and quite it is. I've even been told that the AC is colder than most of my friends newer cars.
Only maintenance during my ownership has been replacing the front/rear pads, air filter, truck shocks, 2 rear taillight bulbs, and the regular oil changes.
Recently I've had the drivers side door lock actuator go out and my drivers side cup holder piece broke off. Other than that it's been solid and plan on going for another 180k.

I just turned 200,000 last week on my 2002. I bought it about 3 years ago with 125,000 on it. Every single button and gadget still works as it should! Other than maintenance stuff you'd expect on a car with 200,000 I did refoam all of the door speakers and replaced the sub and amp. I must say, the refoamed speakers still sound great (I think its been a couple years?) and I have a 40 minute ride to and from work to which they really get pressed to their limits each way!

2004 LS 430 with very low miles 54K
I've had my 2004 LS 430 since it was new and we just turned 54,300 miles. I'm not sure but that could be one of the lowest 2004 jon the road. Haven't had anything repaired on it seems to run like a brand new car. I did buy the with an extended warranty so the car is covered bumper to bumper up to a 105,000 miles and till July of 2018. I doubt if I'll have any major problems but it's just having extra insurance just in case. what do the rest of you think about having the extended warranty on the 2004 LS 430? Is it a good idea or did I waste my money? The car still looks like the day it came off the showroom floor not a mark not a scratch not a problem with anything.
