Congrats on the new LS

You should rub it in the guy's face by driving by with it

my parents will probably be buying a similar car next year when they return the current ls430. they are in love with the big LS, even though i think they should try out an A8 or 750Li.

A8 or 750 will depreciate faster, break more often, as well as give you less features per dollar.

Now, admittedly, I'm sure the A8 will outperform the Lexus,... not sure about a 7 series though... but again, the reliability factor plus rate of depreciation is a major factor for me personally.

I saw the 2 door coupe of the A6, and that thing is sick lookin'.... HOWEVER, I had a rental A6 Quattro four door that weekend I saw it,...and ergonomicly, that thing sucked for real,.. but the performance was insane handling and acceleration wise.
