YES that takes the weight off of my shoulders now hahaha jk it's always fun to see people reactions when they see me driving around. People started to realize that it's actually MY car after I put on the Vossens ahaha!!! Also very funny to see other LS owners reactions (mostly older age people)

I'm 51. I bot the second LS400 sold in Pittsburgh back when Lexus started in the fall of 1989. I was 29 at the time. I kept that car a few years then dabbled in Audi and Mercedes. In 2002 I had the epiphany that the German cars were just a PITA and that Lexus was the best car/car experience I've ever had. Since then I have had two LS430s and I'm on my second LS460. I'll probably keep this car longer than I used to keep cars because I now have two almost-adult kids with cars that are my problem. And THIS LS is really the ultimate car with AWD, a must for Pittsburgh. I have some orthopedic issues and the ability to move the bottom of the driver's seat forward and backward, independent of moving the whole seat, is a huge comfort plus.

I might get the bug for the next bodystyle LS but truthfully the new car bug thing seems to have petered out as I am aging. We'll see. Anyway, even though it's become fashionable to beat up on Lexus and Toyota these past few years, I still see them as the most reliable vehicles ever built.

29, I have a modded sc430, a RR HSE, and an impala interceptor as my DD. I added the LS as I needed a Black big body sedan to complete the fleet lol

At 64 I may win the title as the oldest.. This is my 3rdLexus - actually 4th if you count the 2010 LS Sport that I worked a deal to with Lexus to exchange for my current 2011. My first was a GS430 at 50 and then an LS430 at 57. Have had Audi (A6 4.2) and BMW (550i Sport) in between. I like the 2011 SWB but the suspension is a soft for my driving style (heavy foot/aggressive).

I'm 27 and I love BMW, Mercedes, Buicks, Lexus, ect. If I had the means I would buy a LS without question.
