I bought an utterly amazing and luxurious LS 430 which is a car i've had on my bucket list for a while now. Traded in my super reliable Cartier Lincoln Town car for this truly amazing luxury sedan. I haven't taken any pictures, but it is black on tan, has chrome factory wheels but no navigation (I'm actually fine with that as I've heard the navigation can be failure prone). I do think the front driver side wheel bearing is bad because of the low rumbling sound, so I'm likely to change it in the next few weeks. My 05 Cadillac deville will now be my "beater", as it were. One question I have for you guys. When I put the car into drive, there is a light nudge, it shifts fine, but i'm wondering if I sould look into this, or leave it alone? No codes or anything. Oh, by the way, the car has 64k miles. I seem to remember my mom's toyota solara doing the same sort of "nudge" when you put it into drive.

the nudge is normal as in a couple of weeks you will not even notice it anymore.welcome to the club!

Thank you for the info! I think the LS 430 was a more prudent choice than the Infiniti q45 only based on availability of parts. I still like the very unique look of the 05-06 Q45 and may consider getting on next year before they get too old. You other owners may find this odd but I find the Lexus very similar to my Cadillac in feel, just much better put together.

Amen to that, brother - and welcome!

Welcome to the forums!

I think the nudge is normal. I've seen a few other Lexus' do it.

Congrats and welcome! The nudge is normal, try putting your foot down on the brake for a bit longer and you won't even feel it. Enjoy the new ride
