So far I like the alcantara seats. They seem to hold me in place better than the all leather. The wife also likes them as they are softer and more cozy for her.

I took my car out for a 300 mile round trip with the family inside and here are my observations:

Awesome highway cruiser!
Lots of attention on the road people both slowing down and speeding up to get a better look at the car.
The suspension is ten times better than what was in my 08. The wife gave it two thumbs up and stated that she does not mind riding in this car when compared to the 08.
Excellent gas mileage on the highway. I was getting 25 MPG while cruising along. That is really good for 5 liter V8! I imagine it would get better with strict gas pedal discipline and no hills.

That's cool. I do like the LED look too.

beautiful F! How much did the dealership value your 08 as for the trade in?

The new tach is very efficient. It's very similar to the one in my non-Lexus.
