I wouldnt even pick it over the LS430.

Isnt the Presidente a Cima (Q45) with 4 seats and a few extra options??

Are you saying the LS430 is a bad car?

President is top of the line of Nissan's lineup in Japan. Cima is the second.
Their exteriors have a few differences but their interior have many differences. They have a great price difference...

The Cima in Japan have 2 engine options(3.0L & 4.5L) & the are priced from about low 5 million to low 7 million yen range.

The President does look similar to the Cima, with 4.5L engine only, but priced from mid 8 million to low nine million yen.

The President 4-seater starts at 9.45 million yen~
The Japanese royal family uses the President & Toyota Century~
It's main competitor is the Toyota Century rather than the LS in Japan.

I like that President. It looks pretty good. Not feelin the mirrors much on the fenders. Just out of curiosity, how much in yen, is the LS460L?

The dash area looks like it belongs in a minivan

Mirror on the fenders may look bad, but it may reduce blind spots.
There is only LS460 on sale in Japan, which priced from 7.7 million to 9.65 million yen~

President is kinda ugly but its made for japan not america however since i want some level of performance and style with my Luxury i would go with the LS460.

vader11

That means Q45 is ugly too...

jhenty

why are you comparing the nissan with the lexus? are you buying this in japan? cause if not its just the q45 here in the states basically. Just thought the comparisson was weird. Lexus all the way.

President is not the Q45...Cima is the Q45...President has a higher ranking than LS in Japan, as they are built for the royal family. So, President has a very high quality. Also, remember the best Sedan that Toyota ever built is the Century, which is a Toyota but not a Lexus. The best sedan that Nissan ever built is the President, which is a Nissan but not a Infiniti.
