Yes, spill the beans. We will find out sooner or later, it's just a matter of time. If you know something you might as well be the first to let us know.

I think most of the SoCal (and a few NorCal) people were invited to this. BTW, thanks to Ryan for putting this together. I would never think that the Toyota Museum would be where it's at, which is why I drove past it when I first got there. I haven't DL'd the pics from my camera yet so I'll post once Ryan starts us off in earnest.

Oh Ryan, look what you started now... What a great day that was. New lexus cars and some awesome food! That totally made my day!

Hurry up and post pics so I can upload some of the pics I took with the engine cover off.

Don't forget about that shot of the interior ...and that NAV system!

I would just like to add that the cars at the museum are sweet...there are quite a few that I would love to take home...OK, more than a few!

Honestly, let's wet some people's appetites for a car that won't be released for another six months.

More to come soon. Just watch!

Oh yeah that LS460. There's only 3 in existence in the world. One of them is what you see being loaded in the truck...the same ones you've seen in the press photos. The other 2 are still on the East Coast waiting for it's preview in the upcoming NY Auto Show. All 3 of these cars are hand built and have NO vin number whatsoever. And yes, NO dealership has seen these yet...unless 1) they were at the NAIAS earlier this year or 2) they were with us last Saturday.

actually the LS did have a VIN in the window (as a habit I did check it)...but it didn't start with a J....started with a 5 or something so it was a kind of VIN I've never seen before.

well, when i am spending that kind of money, i would rather spend more time to keep it clean and having the best sickest combo out there i had blk car before, it's a real pain to keep clean. but hell yeah do i miss it

The new LS that Ryan posted must be a demo to be shown at the various dealerships around the country. Can't wait till I see someone driving them on the roads.
dealerships? not sure if they could be as lucky as i was seriously, i had such a long thank you list!!!!
