In fact I think the car is pretty luxurious and a fine choice for a car in it's class. I have always respected and liked the top end Toyotas of the early seventies, like Toyota Crowns, which I believe were the forerunners of the models that are called Lexus here in America. My cousins parents owned a couple of those and I remember being very impressed by the (relative) luxury of the car already then.
Very nice post

I've always been a big Lexus fan because my dad (another car nut ) has owned four models ( 93 ES300 ;94 LS; 94 SC400; and a 98 GS400) I'm really impressed with Lexus' recent vehicles, especialyl in terms of design and the power they are developing.

Having said that, i personally would rather have the LS460 over any of the comparable executive saloons (S550, A8, 750i and etc). For that category of saloon the LS460 is my choice, although my overall favourite saloon is probably the E63 AMG, followed by the Audi B7 RS4.
