Default Bought a 05 ultra
I bought a 2005 (mfg in June 2005, sold in Sept 2005) LS430 Ultra, 21.5K miles, crystal white pearl with ecru leather. The car was owned by retirees in Palm Springs, CA. It has PCS/radar cruise control, factory 18" chromes. Lots of goodies to enjoy, as either me wife or I sit in the back seat w/ my son most of the time.

Fantastic... the best car you'll ever buy and own, guaranteed. You might both end up fighting to sit in the back that your kid will end up driving... hope he/she can reach pedals.
