Pretty difficult to drive. But I am skilled. I have to drop the clutch at 8k RPM, when dual V-TEC kick in.

Thank you
I am still in the process of learning & trying out many of the features.
I still haven't tried the self-park yet I guess it's a very low priority for me ...

Same here, in the last 18 months I have used it maybe four times at best, once to convince my Nav that it was a wise investment , and twice on request from my visiting customers from London and Brussels. The visitors had heard of this new technology and were highly impressed seeing the action in person.

I just saw this thread but didn't read all the pages so everything has probably already been said...all the questions answered but I have to comment.

That is one be-yoo-ti-ful car. So sweet. My gosh, it's amazing.
I know you're not into mods but this car just begs for a beautiful set of 22's.
I can't ever remember being envious of anyone for any reason but this gets close.
My wife wants an LS and I've been telling her no. I may just change my mind.

Thank you Reggie
I will consider aftermarket wheels with lowering at some point in the future, but not much more than that

Talking Who said mesh wheels won't look good on LS460's ?? ...

Thanks to Seize , 20" BBS LM's :




Of course, Henry doesn't think 20's are big enough for the car, so that's what it would look like if they make 22's :



My conclusion : Mesh wheels do look good on the car

I am rather new to this forum. Just wanted to tell you this is the prettiest 460L I have seen. Congratulations! Are these pics with the clear bra in place? I understand it is standard in Canada?
