i asked alot of questions about future stuff
i asked about the Supra ..their answer .."Did you know it still made in Japan ?"
never got a straight answer on that one
then he said the LS will have an 8 speed auto trans .....told me about how he was in Japan back in 93 and saw a AWD V8 turbo GS ....
oh he went to say that it will be an industry first !! on the Ls trans

I have no doubt the next LS will truly revolutionize the luxury car world.

That link doesn't work, I guess you have to sign up to be a member???
Nice pics of the red again. That was a 350 without the Nav, that's interesting, did it have the ML sound system? It looks like it's missing a function button on the steering wheel on the right.
Did the rear seats seem small to you? The Car & Driver review says it was the worst of the bunch. What were your thoughts on the back seat room?
Are there any more pics?

now i'm really excited about the next gen LS
the side mirrors that some people have been complaining about aren't actually that big from the looks of it...i think the reason it looked big in some pictures is because the shots were taken from a lower level, and because there is a crease in the middle where the mirror bends, it sometimes looks like it is one big mirror made up of the top and bottom as one big mirror
also...what link are you talking about xanadu?
