WOW Awsome Find. As far as I know this is the first written article on the new LS430.

I would love to buy one....

Nice review. Verrrryyyy nice.......! If anyone is still waffling between the '03 and the '04 cars, this ought to provide some food for thought.

Great review indeed.

One thing I didn't see from other sources is this: "The navigation system is improved for 2004 with more datapoints (5.6 million vs. last year's 785,000)."
The gen-4 nav system sounds great. There use to be simply too few POI's to make the feature useful but now it looks like a good replacement for yellow pages.

The article claimed the LS430 to go 0-60 in 5.9. This is awesome considering no horsepower change was made. Just imagine what numbers the LS would produce with over 350 horses!
