Age of LS430 owners! (The Mother thread)

Somewhere I read that the average NEW LS buyer was 65 yrs old, male, and with the median income of $150K. Now figure that there is a large cluster of used LS owners in their 30's or earlier, the average age ends up being in the mid 40's.

The majority of the ls430 owners are second hand owners. That's why the age groups are in the 20's, 30's, 40's, 50's.
Brand new owners are on the very low numbers, and usually they're over 60+.
This all makes sense.

I bought mine used, mostly because I'm too cheap to buy a luxury car new and take that huge depreciation hit. I'm 54 in June this year. Most of the folks that drive LS430s in my area are 45+ it seems to me. I think buying an LS is an intelligence test of sorts - there are several flashier cars in the same price range but the LS is the highest quality and reliability - when a person finally gets smart enough to spend their money on quality, they tend to end up driving an LS. And it takes a certain age in life to learn that lesson, and also have the money to execute on it.
Mine has a young look due to mods his is all stock but he's 60 LOL.
