For Sale: 2008 Lexus GX470 in Concord, North Carolina

Vehicle Description

This 2008 Lexus GX470 Overland is among the most interesting 4x4 campers. It gives you rugged Land Cruiser-based features, V8 power, and a ton of off-road upgrades. But you also get to enjoy the luxuries of a Lexus. So when you want to "rough it" with creature comforts, it's worth looking at this custom.

We like the base that was used for this overland camper. The GX series is based on the Land Cruiser Prado. It's a vehicle we don't get in the USA because it was developed to have the rugged features of a Land Cruiser but in a more user-friendly package (so that seemed like the right idea to put in our Lexus dealerships.) So it was already made to be a real off-road machine even before there were some big investments made to this one. It starts up front with an awesome steel bumper, integrated winch, LED light bar, and better approach/departure angles. And speaking of clearance, there's a nice lift on the suspension and terrific-looking TRD 17-inch wheels. Plus, there's something uniquely fun about looking at a profile with sharp-looking Lexus silver paint and rugged rock sliders. And the rear is well stocked with an upgraded steel bumper, a full-sized spare, and a proper trailer hitch. This one loves to be versatile, so you already have everything from a snorkel air intake to plenty of additional LED lights to keep you going farther. And, of course, proper overland camping means a roof rack and handy tend mounted on top.

The interior is up to Lexus luxury standards. That means plenty of leather, burled walnut trim, and a feature-filled style. It's loaded with dual-zone automatic A/C climate control, power windows, power locks, power front seats, heated seats, power mirrors, cruise control, dual front airbags, a tilt steering column, a premium AM/FM/CD stereo system with aux input, and a sunroof. This is a well-kept actual mileage vehicle, and so you will find signs of use, but that seems inconsequential on a car made for enjoying an adventure. You even have excellent home-away-from-home features like TV screens in the front headrests for the couch-like rear seats. And there's a mini fridge in the oversized cargo area.

The mechanical side of this GX shows off the right mix of Land Cruiser robustness with the right amount of Lexus comfort. For example, this has the same fuel-injected V8 power you can get in the Land Cruiser. This 4.7-liter unit was developed to have plenty of torque for truck/SUV use, and it also is quite versatile with variable valve and DOHC setup that is peppy for around-town driving, too. We have an excellent maintenance file showing this one was correctly handled. And also, just like a proper Land Cruiser, this GX has a robust 4x4 system with a two-speed transfer case and hill descent control. Additional upgrades like Icon Vehicle Dynamics shocks and beefy Yokohama Geolandar tires were added. But this one is also a star when it comes time for on-road use. Unlike some Land Cruisers, this GX has a comfortable independent front end. A four-speed automatic transmission with overdrive, power steering, and four-wheel disc brakes is always handy.

This GX470 was upgraded to take you further and let you stay out longer because it's a modern 4x4 with all the best overland amenities. So you know you want it to fit your full adventurous lifestyle. Call today!!!
