It's a tossup for me. I really like the audi body lines, but the LS460 is looking very slick!

The only thing keeping the LS460 from being perfect is the blacked-out grill. At least make the emblem chrome or something. Other than that, it's the audi vs lexus for me.

Out of those three, I'd have to take the S8. If the Wald had different wheels, I'd probably opt for that instead.

Wald LS. Very clean, lots of character that the LS in stock form
does not have.

Wald does excellent work with subtle enhancements that make the
cars look more aggressive.

Tough call b/t the LS and S8

I like the interior of the LS more over the S8.

Tough choice between LS, S8, and Brabus S. Can't decide really .

I feel the same way. The grill on the LS is too distracting, and the exterior of the A8 is super clean, but audi interiors cannot compare.

I want the S8 (god I love those) but too expensive. The LS430 modded with Wald stuff seems more realistic for me...but still can't afford it
