LS 430 looks to old for a 26yrs girl?
Wife and I are looking forward for a possible new purchase at the end of the year. Her parents don't like the idea of the SC430 that we have been talking about. Do you guys think the LS430 is too big (my wife is tiny, she is about 95lb and about 5'4") and looks too old for her?

Mark-
Not at all. Granted if she's used to a smaller car, it will take some getting used to but nothing that a bit of driving won't solve. As for "looking to old"...IMO, I think it's
to see a youngish person driving a refined car. To me that says style and not concerned with what the masses have stereo-typed.
If it sems too vanilla...I think you can solve that for her...20's, Tein CS, Wald...
What did she think of Atsou's car?

The LS is a very nice car. I am 36 and I think it's too big/old looking for me. In fact I look like I am driving my father's car. 
I wish I bought a more sporty looking car. But you guys should buy what you enjoy driving.

Mark, unless they are paying for the car, why should this be a overriding decision maker? If you guys like the SC, why not get the SC? I love my parents to death and never disregard their opinion, but when it comes down to it, I live with my decisions and its consequences. Just giving a little push for you to get what YOU want.

I got my first LS at 29 and that was only because it didn't exist before that. Drove a Lincoln Town Car at 25.
