I love Lexus but at that range I'd be eyeing Porsches (TTs) Audi RS5, Astons, Lotus Evoras, M5s etc, etc,........but that's just my $00.02, sorry CL!

All totally different cars though. I for instance would never consider buying any of those cars you mention.

stopped by the dealer today to give them my answer... upon arrival i was given the key and the techie put on the dealer plate and off i went on one more test drive (no one else in the car but me). i was gone around 20 minutes. the GM (who's also a friend) pulled me to the side and suggested that i should wait for the new body style. he said if you want it (the 2013 LS), it's yours. this guy special orders cars with everything in it. 2-3 months before they hit the streets. so i'm going to wait for the new body style and let him special order one for me. until then, my 2013 GS F Sport will do for now... i'm not complaining. i can wait.

any guestimate on when the new new LS will be arriving? 2015 as a 2016 model? It seems so far away...

Talking about the want and the need.... Being there and seeing it in person completely changed my view about this car. What a design!
