Even new, fully loaded, this car tops out at just over 90K. A fantastic value, when you consider the BASE S Class is 100K. This has always been my favorite Lexus, as it's the most competitive model they make. I'd buy this or maybe the G90, which is also a great value in this class.

Correct me if I am wrong. But I believe the reason behind the plastic cover. Is to protect the electrical and electronic components. Besides the look in which I think that's a secondary reason though.

I wish the rear had more flare. It just kinda looks like a Toyota from the back. I wish they would also get rid of the touch pad and use a rotary dial instead and add physical controls for the heated and ventilated seat controls. The ES has physical controls for those, I don't get why the LS doesn't.

[@caribbeangtr8077]

A truly beautiful and nice car. You didn't mention if it's FWD or 4WD, so I'm going to assume its FWD. the power is great, and matching torque means it pushes back in your seat and has good pulling power, especially uphill. What this car will have over all its rival is RELIABILITY, and won't be a burden to own even out of Warranty. You just can't beat Toyota's reliability. I'm glad Toyota has finally began to offer turbo in a lot of their models because there is nothing like the thrust of turbo.
