YUM Lexus!

NOITALL · January 9th, 2006, 03:02 AM

4.6L V8, 380hp/370 ft-lbs torque.

world's first 8-speed automatic transmission.

0-60mph under 5.5 seconds, with EPA mixed mileage in mid-twenties. (ULEV).

Mark Levinson surround-sound with 19-speakers and a hard disc audio server that holds four thousand songs.

The LS460L available with rear-seat ottoman package. Passenger side includes a 45 degree recliner with adjustable leg rest and massager, individual DVD player, and hidden cooler like a Maybach.

Self-Park - "Intelligent Park Assist" parks with just a little brake work.

What an absolutely gorgeous car.

I'd have to pass on this one Craig...

I do not like the lines, and the rear-end is too 'clunky' (for lack of a better word) for my taste...

The specs are impressive though...

8 speed automatic????????????????????????????

Complete rip off of the ugly BMW 7 styling. It is probably half the price and feel with twice the comfort and reliability.

It looks a lot like a 7 series with GTO wheels

And really there is no need for an 8spd tranny at all, hell 7 way more than necessary in an auto.

That being said the back seat looks damn comfy.

That's the first thing that I thought of when I saw the rear.

Yeah, overall it looks pretty kickass. Looking closer, however, I'm not sure about some of the detailing. But hey -- Lexus tends to have their engineering pretty well sorted, so I'm sure it's mechanically very good. Hope it's a little more exciting feeling than most Lexuses though -- that brand tends to be a tad uninspired to drive.

Ding, ding, ding! We have a winner! Probably the BEST car in the World that has no Soul.

The poor starter must take a beating since the drivers can't figure out whether the car is running or not.
