It was so hefty that it took them 15 years to make another one this hefty, and that's the current one.

Lexus LS

90-97 Lincoln Towncar

I could include the Toyota Century though it was never sold outside of small numbers in Japan...

After everything else from the 90s has died, the Lexus LS400 will dutifully continue to run.

I don't think Lexus today will make anything as enduring. Depending upon the LS430 variant that may be the ultimate expression of the LS400 design ethos.

Modern cars date themselves when you look at their infotainment systems. A conventional CD and cassette player is fairly timeless even now, just toss in an aux jack and a Bluetooth system.

Jokes aside this looks so lowclass compared to S-Class, Audi A8 and BMW 7-Series. What the fuck went wrong?

I see e38s more than I see LS400s

>>17104664
They updated it to look all rounded for some asshole reason instead of leaving it nice and square (which it was the entire time the Crown Vic looked like an oversized Taurus).

i fucking love 90s luxobarges. All the flavors of them, ohh yes

>>17104953
OP said "barge" you complete fucking ape.

Jag XJ, Bentley Arnage (just)

BMW E32 abd E38 750's are my personal favourites, although I am a bit biased because I own both.
They're sleek, elegant and quite reliable for a luxury car. Surprisingly simple and easy to maintain too, as long as you have the money and the patience and a lot of elbow grease.

There can only be one....

Of course there are more rare things like the big S class coupes etc. But the LS is the benchmark, and really moved the entire market in a new direction.

The D2 was a good car. If only they'd used a more robust transmission.

>>17105187
That transmission is a damn shame for sure, they all blow around ~230k km.

At least you can pick them up for dirt cheap these days.

>>17105193
I hear if you keep up on the fluid changes every 70-100k you can keep them going a lot longer.

>>17104953
Out of all the SL you managed to pick the shittiest one good job man. Also this shitheap of a car is not a luxury barge, its just a car normies would think is reeeallly special because its starting to be old and its a shitty merc

>>17101949
I prefer my luxobarges to not drive like a oil tanker.

If I wanted that, I'd buy something from the malaise era.

Tell me again why is it the shittiest?

These are so cheap to buy because they're 80s-rolls-royce tier reliable. There's one selling for $700 down the street by me, a vanden plas. Dead engine, but hey nothing an LS can't fix right?

I'm trying to keep it as clean as I can. I want to drive it for another 5-10 years.

Lincoln Town Car. All the same luxuries as anyone else but the V8 in Panthers last forever. You'd spend so much in repairs for a German car of the era that you might as well be a brand new German luxury car.
