What is the average age of an LS 460 owner??

I expect that if I can figure out complex multi-database/multi-table SQL statements and write code that deals with, ummm, shall we say inventive, user actions I can cope with a car that's DESIGNED to be easy to use.
The LS600hL I have on order (deposit) will be my 3rd LS......The first 2 were incredibly user friendly.

I know the thread is about the age of LS460 owners and it seems to be turning into what age you bought your first Lexus. Well, I'm gonna take it closer to the original subject.
I went looking for my first Lexus in 1998. It was an LS400 and I was in my 30's. At no time did I think I was too young for the car. I thought it was cool to have the flagship car. I didn't buy it because I am accustomed to bargaining down to my price. The Lexus salesmen would only go so far. They tried to tell me overcharging for the car would be worth it in the long run. Two years later I was back and I overpaid for a SC300 and I haven't regretted it one bit.
Bottom line, age means little in the car game. It's get what you want...what you can afford.
The car I bought in 98 was an Infiniti J30. Everyone said, you're a sport coupe guy. Why would you get that...it's not you. After modding it everyone changed their tone. Being younger gives you more of a reason to slap some nice wheels on it. That'll freshen it for you.

Too old? Let's see, I just turned 60, and I'm still an active software developer.
I expect that if I can figure out complex multi-database/multi-table SQL statements and write code that deals with, ummm, shall we say inventive, user actions I can cope with a car that's DESIGNED to be easy to use.

At no point did I state that people over a certain age are too old for a 460. I simply said that the car has some advanced features which can be a little overwhelming for some older buyers. Im a Sales Consultant at a Lexus dealer and I have seen it firsthand on many occasions.
Most people who are in a position to buy a 460 in the first place didnt get there by being stupid so please do not assume thats what I was trying to say.
