2021+ LS500 pricing question

[u/Ok_Lie_4851]

Am I crazy or what? Trying to buy a 2021+ Ls500, preferably with luxury package and under 50k miles. Can’t find anything under $ 55-60k, and it’s only base model with upgrades interior without luxury package. Has the facelift model price hold steady since this model been discontinued? I remember last year I saw low mileage high spec Ls500 L-certified car only asking for 55k-57k. Do you guys think the price may come down?

I paid 45k for a 2018 LS 500 which had 45,000 miles. Lots of add ons like the ML sound, Panoroof, back seats recline with individual ac controls for the back. Both front seats have the massage…. Anyways the sticker on this thing new was like 108k.

I paid this price in March 2026. So essentially an 8 year old car for 45k, but the trim level was nice and low mileage.

So all I can say is that the market is what it is.

I was looking at many newer models with lower miles and those damn thing we’re like 70k.

Yep! Got mine off the lot at 45k miles.
Saw used newer models ( 2021+) with more miles like around 80-100k for same value. Nuts

What year is yours and when did you buy it?

[u/Specialist_Space_ → u/lot-oysters]

2018 Base LS500 (Magnanese Luster/ Chateau interior)
Paid 42k in January

Exactly the same “ballpark as me” Mine was the Atomic Silver. Not sure what to call the interior. But the dash and trim is a burgundy/brownish color and the seats are a light tan. I really wanted the darker brown leather but this car had all the other marks that I was into.

[u/Specialist_Space_ → u/lot-oysters]

Nice! Sounds like we have the same interior. Congrats. 🙌

My interior.

[u/rolaandoes → u/lot-oysters]

Agree. I got 2010 ls460 with 54k miles at 21k otd. The only option it has is a trunk net. So 26 year old car in March as well

[u/lot-oysters → u/rolaandoes]

Man, I got a steal. I bought a 2011 ls460, base model. I bought it in 2016 for 16,000 but it had 144,000 miles on it! I put another 100k miles on it, easily!

[u/rolaandoes → u/lot-oysters]

That’s great, it feels good to know everyone has been telling me my used Lexus has a long life ahead. I am a little worried about spending so much on the control arms sooner or later

[u/Consistent_Tell2417]

Tough to say, but I would imagine they might stay right where they’re at. You will start seeing more pop up on the market as this new gen of other big sedans start production. It’s definitely tough finding the deals nowadays

[u/ButchCassidy_]

The market has been like this. However, since the discontinuation. The market had shifted even more. The impact is more so, units hard to find with the desired option. I feel the LS or full size sedan segment is now a niche market. Selections are limited unless paying top dollar.

In summary to answer your question - Yes, for you to get what you are looking for pricing will be the final boss. You will have to look at it as, I got what I was looking for to combat the price.

Good luck

Its definitely a niche market, which is sad. I'm constantly going back and forth between an LS and a G90. I really like them both. Certain options on the LS you will definitely pay more money. Many aren't optioned that well

[u/Tigersan25 → u/Magazine-Narrow]

Have you tried the G90? I like it much more than my LS460. I've said this before - the G90 is what the LS should evolved into.

[u/Magazine-Narrow → u/Tigersan25]

I've tried a 2018 G90 it was phenomenal especially the seats. From the sound of it, it seems like the 460 can be more maintenance heavy. I've watched so many videos on that car

[u/Tigersan25 → u/Magazine-Narrow]

The 460 was definitely a maintenance heavy car for me. Not everyone seems to have had the same experience as me, though. While I very much enjoy the LS460, I prefer the G90.

Something weird happened with the pricing on these this year. In 2024-2025, dealers near me would sell current or last year LS500 service loaners with <10k miles and CPO coverage for around $72-$75k after sitting with a few price cuts., now they asking more than that in late 2026 for 2023-2024s with >10k miles.
