And this picture shows that probably the LS 460 L standard models will not have them as well. Perhaps as part of an option package? I also don't seem them glowing on the LS 600h L pics I've seen, but it's possible the dark color of the shots/car may have made viewing them difficult (although that sounds counterintuitive).

I think there will be insignificant difference in tire or mechanical wear between automatic or manual parallel parking. You'll have to turn the steering wheel all the way anyways, especially with smaller spaces.

so this one must be about the same or more!
but it is so worth it, now the question is, 460L or the 600HL?

car is beautiful, but i would rather have the 06 LS 5spoke wheels on this car rather than those alloy 10-spoke wheels, looks really cheap and small,,seriously the best wheels that lexus have produced i believe is either the RX's 18 or the GS 430's 18" second is the 04+ LS 5-spoke 18 in graphite, but these are just hidious for such a luxourious luxo cruiser

The LS460L shown in NY Auto Show has the same wheels as this LS460 shown below in Japan, which I like better on the car than the one shown in the pic s above, so not sure which one will come standard with the LS460 & LS460L here, but the 19" on the LS600hL looks the best among the three. Of course none of the 3 stock wheels we have seen so far will satisfy many of the picky members we have here . . .

But besides that there is no comparison.
