It drives incredibly nice. I had forgotten how nice they could be.

Nav system is frozen up, sitting at Lexus now which is a bummer, but they'll get it sorted out.

Sat in an ES350 on the showroom floor. We've come a long way baby haha

So u came from an ES to GS then LS.

I came from a Camry (basically a stripped down ES) to GS. Maybe next LS too? Cause that seems to be the pattern here.

Doesnt seem bad if you lease it for 3 years.

Congrats on the LS, to me it's always been the epitome of understated Japanese elegance

Any reasons why you went for an LS again after cross-shopping so many other brands?

Thanks! The LS is just a car I've wanted for a long time. An opportunity came along I recognized from looking at leases on the car for a long time I couldn't pass up.

Needs a new radio which I'm not thrilled about. Part is on order so the nav is still half working, I'm sure it will be fine
