I just walked off the lot with an 08 LS460. I wanted black on black but they didn't have it on the lot, so they knocked the price down another K and I got black / cashmere.

I had the nav set to take me home from the dealership and couldn't even figure out how to get it to shut up.

I have a lot of learning to do in the next few days. The sad thing is, it was raining when I drove it off the lot.

It's already been rained on. I feel betrayed by the weather gods.

Maybe the 'rain gods' were washing off the evil spirits of the dealership. Congrats!

Congrats, be glad for the rain! Just think that your new LS is doing its part to contribute... We need every drop here in NC.

Hey, Rugby - congrats on the car. Look at it this way - black with a black interior is like falling onto a mineshaft when you get in. Dark, dark, dark. (Okay, you black/black owners, don't beat me up. )

I personally think your combination is a great one - you get the classy black exterior and the light, bright cashmere interior. Excellent.

Now I gotta figure out what hacks and stuff I need to get. The clear bra sounds like a great investment.
