Default How fast can an LS 460 L 5 passeneger go in SPORT/COMFORT/NORMAL mode from (0-100)KM?

For instance can the difference be seen with the bare eye ?

How many seconds does it takes the LS 460 L to come up with a speed of 100 KM in all 3 modes.

Yeah, they listed 5.4 sec. as the "official" 0-60 time, but did not differentiate between LWB & SWB I believe, which have weight differences.
I recall at least one test which claims they got 5.4 sec. repeatedly. I think Car & Driver got 5.6 sec. for the pre-production 460L exec. package (heavy) they tested.

Yep it's right here:
http://www.businessweek.com/autos/co...214_826825.htm

"For such a big vehicle, the LS 460l is scary fast. Lexus says the regular LS 460 can jump from 0 to 60 in 5.5 seconds but I figured the long version would be slower. I was wrong. The 460l weighs 4,332 lbs, just 88 lbs more than the 460, and it's equally fast. I consistently got 0 to 60 times of 5.4 and 5.5 seconds in the 460l, which about matches the lightening speed of the Mercedes S 550".
