Wow 100K on your 08!!! Nice. My 08 has 65K. But I work from home so I don't drive it alot. Gratz!

I just hit the 100k mark last Friday on a trip down to Miami. I was very conscious of it as I was driving so I had my wife take a picture of it.

This is pretty cool! Im thinking i'll hit 100k in about a year! Call me silly but I take a photo every time the odo flips every 10k into the proceeding number.
Idk...I really enjoy the LS. Even though its aged, it still "feels" new to me. My wifes uncle has an S-Class, '12 MY and it is nice, but idk if its bias ( I try not to be) or if its a truth, but I do enjoy and prefer the over all look and ride of my older LS to his newer S-Class. With that being said though-the MB is still an incredibly nice and classy car, no question!

Newer isn't necessarily better.

On road trips, I guarantee the '73 Coupe DeVille I used to captain own was better.

However...8 MPG was not. Neither was parking garage docking navigation tying up with a two-door car a few inches longer than a mid-90's Suburban (NOT a Tahoe).

This said, I'm pleased with how the LS 460 L does road trips. It's very old-world Mercedes-like in that it's firm yet forgiving.


edit: I would not be surprised to see this car being the last daily-driver I own. I'm 48, so even 20 years of work at 60 mi/day, it'd still be well under 500K miles. Pffft!!!!!

My wife was, um...counting...52, I think, when we got her the RX300 in 2004. I told her before we bought it, but after we knew it was The One, "Sweetie, so you know, this will likely be the last car you ever own, right? I just want to make sure you're okay with that."

She has been.

I haven't taken a 100k pic in quite a while, but I did have to take an all 1s pic back when I had my T-Bird.

If you had been doing 111 miles per hour, then THAT would have completed the picture!

I love that you remembered to reset the trip meter 111.1 miles away from the target.

I snapped a photo recently of my 77,777 mile odometer... Won't see 100,000 for another couple of years, but looking forward to it!

7 is a great number! Awesome photos here!

Love those snaps of the odometers. I don't have one of my 460, but here's one of my 612 last summer (note the temp and I was in New Hampshire at the time ).

I bought mine used two weeks ago with 98k and it's just about there, 99,974 at the moment. I'm glad to see everyone's positive posts about the reliability of this car, it's such a nice car for it being a 2008

Last summer was brutal in NH, I still have thoughts about that drought and all the dead lawns.
