Well, some interaction is involved but so it is with the LS460 as well, plus I bet this gets in even tighter spots. haha

Guess you wasted another couple clicks by replying.

Not the greatest video but I thought kinda a funny crude way of parallel parking, in the light of all the hype over the LS460's somewhat complicated way of "making it easy".

It's hilarious to see how negative the responses to this thread were overall and how positive they were, relatively, in the other thread.

The links were the same... only real difference is I took the chance to jab at the LS460 jokingly.

Musta upset you guys.



PS- I looked on the first couple of pages but that thread was buried a little ways back until the last reply.
