Can anyone tell me how the new LS460 (base version) will compare to the LS430 in terms of "garage-ability". My garage is very tight but the LS430 fits fairly well. If the new car is much wider (the main problem...extra length can be slightly tolerated) it won't fit.

You're only looking at an additional 2 inches

Hope that's what you were looking for...

Make sure you get the Park Assist feature...

and watch out on those side mirrors when you park if anything, i am sure you can get out from the sunroof

okok, jokes aside, the new ls will be about 2 inches wider. i hope that's fine if you just need to make it so that you can get out (so passenger side can be closer to the wall / the other car

I'm pretty sure the car will come with automatic folding side mirrors, right?

it will, but not when you are parking the car. i think it folds up when you shut off the car

Yup, the LS 430 does that automatically when you turn off the switch. You can also do it manually by pressing a button, although you will need to switch it back to 'Auto' for the mirrors to fold when you turn off the car.

Handy for tight parking spaces! And garages!
