Does anyone use their LS as a part-time limo?

Pole Position
Three friends of mine who are carless, l-o-v-e this car so much, they pay me to drive them to/from work, this since May of this year. It was their idea; they approached me, I agreed & put the money into a special account just to see what would happen. So far, that account has accumulated over $5K and counting (5 months). It was just for fun at first, but it looks like I'll have to declare this on my taxes for this year at this rate. If this keeps going well into next year, I'll use the proceeds to upgrade to the Executive edition.
So yes, even some of your close friends will pay you to shuttle them around.
It's all about converting the envy factor into income.

The trunk on the LS is way too small to be a good limo. One can barely fit a single suitcase in it. Unless your passengers will not mind riding with their bags on their laps.

The trunk space of the LS460L's without the rear seat upgrade is actually not bad -18 cu.ft., comparable to other cars in it's class, but with the Rear Seats Upgrade/Executive Package, it shrinks to under 13 cu.ft.

Evidently there are those using the LS professionally as a for-hire transport:
