The second-generation Lexus LS 400 (UCF20) debuted in November 1994 (for the 1995 model year) with a longer wheelbase and similar specifications as the original model. The public unveiling of the vehicle occurred in a gala ceremony held at the San Francisco Opera House in California. The sedan was equipped with an updated 4.0-litre 1UZ-FE V8 engine, producing 194 kilowatts (260 hp). Internally, over 90% of the redesigned LS 400's composition was new or redesigned, with increased sound insulation, a strengthened body structure, suspension updates, Skyhook adaptive computerized air suspension, and improved brakes. The redesigned model was 95 kg (209 lb) lighter than its predecessor and achieved slightly better fuel economy. The 0–100 kilometres per hour time improved to 7.5 seconds.
Given the first-generation model's successful reception and high level of customer satisfaction with its design, replicating the original LS 400's attributes with its successor was one of chief engineer Kazuo Okamoto's primary goals. Externally, the most significant change was an increase in wheelbase length of 36 mm, resulting in more interior space and an additional 66 mm of rear-seat legroom, however, as the overall length remained the same, boot capacity was slightly reduced.
The redesigned LS 400 interior received upgraded features, varying from dual-zone climate controls to rear cupholders. A newly patented seat cushion design, similar to the car's suspension, used lightweight internal coil springs and stabilizer bars to improve comfort. One of the first in-dash CD changers was offered as an option. Safety enhancements included enlarged crumple zones, three-point seat belts at all positions, and a new collapsible steering column
This particular LS400 is a one owner car from new. It was ordered by a local surgeon who drove it occasionally. It was ordered in Dark Green Metallic with Tan leather interior. It was specified with every available option, including front and rear park distance control, dual AC units, sunroof, electric seats, etc
The car has only covered 106,000km from new and has a full set of books and service history. This is an 'as new' 30 year old car.
