Default Just ordered an LS460!!

White on Cashmere!
NAV/ML/APGS + Comfort PKG

The dealer was like, only difference between the comfort and comfort plus was the APGS and Lexus HOMELINK(this is LexusLink right?), but I took a look at the specs of the car we're getting thats arriving at the port, and whADDAYA know?! We're getting both APGS and Lexus HOMELINK.

The car is a birthday present for my father, its arriving on the 15th, I cant wait!!

We got the car for $65,500. Is that a good price?
Came out to 71K in change after fee's and tax.

Anything I should be looking out for, like problems? I havent been reading the forums much lately since Im so busy now a days.

Congratulations on the LS 460!!!

Just to clarify, I'm fairly sure your Comfort Plus package, based on what you said, includes APGS and Lexus Link. Homelink is standard on every Lexus and that is the garage door opener.

Anyhow, congrats!

Yeah, your dad's amazing birthday present has many cool features to test out...

Since it's arriving at the port soon, is it a 2007 or 2008 model?

Its an 08. I cant wait to see headlamp washers in action... I think that is the coolest thing ever, even though theyre not very new, but its the first car we'll have with them :P! Guys, I tested out the ML system in a 460 and it didnt seem all that loud... I mean 450 watts at full crank should be quite high no? Especially in such a confined space. Idk, it was a brand new 460 on the lot and maybe the amp needs some time to start pumping out full wattage, it sounded way better than my maxima's bose system but it was only a little louder. I know the quality will only get better as the speakers get broken in but, how louD do you guys think it is?

Also, hows the price sound for what I got?

The sound system has such clean sound that it makes it appear not as loud as others, until you try to talk to the person next to you. It is plently loud, and it is a very accurate, controlled sound.

Is the creditcard key standard for aLL LS's? Or only LS460L's?

Lol, at the dealership all the cars had red bows on them. I was like, "Hey jeff, if I dont see a red bow on my car when I come to pick it up, im stealing one off of your showroom floors cars." Hes like "No, dont worry Ill get you one."

Man theyre some nice people at lexus . Well I got the LS430 in my sig from the same guy too so I guess he has to be nice. And may I add, idk if I can say a dealerships name in here but Ray Catena Lexus in Larchmont, NY has some of the BEST HOT CHOCOLATE that Ive ever had.

Oh, and is that 90 day subscription trial only for XM Radio or XM Radio and NAVTraffic?

1 - Credit Card Key, Option for all in US

2 - 90 days for XM and XM NavTraffic is standard

I 'only' have the ES with ML, but my brother has the 460L with ML, and I do not see how anyone could consider the system lacking in anything, IMHO.

Enjoy!

the ML system is mainly about clarity and accuracy. loudness is only secondary. i don't know about you, but the system on my ls460l is pretty loud. the gs350 is no match

no, credit card key is only for 600hl

yes, 90 days trial for XM

red bow, a lot of dealerships do have them for december to remember cars. worth around 100 bucks

wind noise for 08, no idea. it wasn't clear cut for 07 anyway

yes, 08 has 7.1

i don't think the credit card key is an "option" for any ls460 at all. you can get it from dealerships and have it programmed, but when you get the car, it's not an option you can choose from factory.

the 600hl comes with the credit card key standard

the card itself, around 400 bucks i think. sewell lexus is selling for around 260?
