Revelations from My First Road Trip in the LS

my biggest grip about this LS is the HANDLING, don't like it! Doesn't compare anything to my MB AMG Sport Suspension E350. The LS feels nervous on turns and 2 much body roll is unappealing driving habit IMO.
On the other hand, Navi is cinch to use, but "sometimes" gives you bad directions. I really like the Gen 5 Lexus navi. Looks so crisp. I wish there was some way to swap the navi brain to get Gen 5 in my LS?

If you had the sport package (18's and stiffer suspension), you maaaay not be saying that? What's weird is I would have thought the Ultra would HAVE every OPTION, however the Sport Package was a $220 option that had to be added on!
I guess it would be counter-intuitive though...to add the Sport Package to the Ultra. People who opt for the Ultra most likely wants the feeling of riding on a big fluffy cloud..lol
UPDATE-----I just read on the 2005 LS430 sales brochure (that sits on my coffee table..lol) footnote #14. Footnote #14 says: SPORT PACKAGE NOT AVAILABLE ON CUSTOM OR ULTRA LUXURY MODELS.

to tell you the truth, I doubt that the Sport Package with 18" would make that much of a difference. My "Sport" button in my Ultra does absolutely nothing for me. My Benz sits so much lower to the ground, it handles sooo much better.

I just had my foam cushion delivered on your advice. It is great Thanks for that....
