1999 Lexus LX470 :: Classifieds (SOLD)

Lexus lx470 profile

Refinement and luxury are not necessarily the first words that come to mind when we think about overlanding. Instead, most adventurous travelers desire rugged dependability and capability above all else. However, there are a select few vehicles that provide all of the above, and the Lexus LX470 is one of them. This legendary 4WD shares many of the same underpinnings as the rugged 100-Series Land Cruiser but introduces sumptuous interior luxury. This winning formula has made the LX470 a desirable option for overland travelers with stunning builds from O4Lo, Roam Overland Outfitters, and Where to Next Overland. Furthermore, this platform enjoys access to a vast catalogue of aftermarket parts and accessories to further uprate it for backcountry exploration. Today’s 1999 offering has covered 174,000 miles and showcases premium modifications.

From the Seller:

Ready for adventure. Only selling as I’m building up a new Cruiser. Will be driving from Alaska to Oklahoma City in June so I can make reasonable stops in between (Montana, Wyoming, Denver) for serious buyers.”
