If i must be honest they're are two things about the LS460 which i dislike and one is what you mentioned
I can park the car myself and would never use the system
And secondly, does it need eight gears? Most certaintly not imo
If you look the top speed (130 mph) it is achieved in 5th gear, while 6th, 7th and 8th are all overdrive gears. It's the same in the S-Class, the top speed is achieved in 4th rather than 7th gear.. On a postive note that lowers what the engine's rotation speed at 97 km/h in top gear, 1500rpm for the S550 and 1550rpm for LS460. Both will be super comfortable on the highway!
