Question LS 460 Changes for 2008

Now I know that the LS was new for 2007, but I suspect that there will be some changes for 2008 (memory on the passenger side seat being but one obvious one).

On the GS forum, someone who works at a dealer has provided a list of the upcoming changes for 2008 for the GS. Does someone have a list of the 2008 changes for the LS? I'm probably going to order a 2008 GS or LS this summer, so even small changes are of interest to me. Thanks!

Yeah, it's a bit early to find out...but it's an interesting question.

But I don't know if they'll add the passenger side memory. It's been that way since the LS came out in 1989, for some reason. I hope they change it though.

Based on the GS updates preview thread, maybe we'll see side mirror turn signal lights.

The GS has memory on the passenger side and has had since 2006 if memory serves.

We may see some new colors as one of many possible minor tweaks for 2008.

One major area I hope they change is the incorporation of the full safety features packages, that are offered in Europe and Asia. Apparently, FCC regulatory approval is the reason why the rear Pre-Crash systems haven't been implemented in the U.S.
