Sadly what a waste of an LS600hL. I saw it tonight in Hollywood.

I also saw David Hassellhoff right before he jumped in his black Audi R8. He actually walked up to his old car KITT. It was funny because they had to push KITT onto it's parking spot on Hollywood Blvd in front of the Kodak Theater LOL.
