Thanks for the welcome and compliments on the car.
More details:
Two owner car (last owner loved the car but didn't use it enough)
Mint condition, I could not find a single ding or scratch only a couple of small scuffs that may buff out
Interior looks brand new
Custom luxury package
18 inch chrome wheels
Upgraded saddle leather
Smart key
Got it for $18K which may be a little high but once I saw the saddle interior, took it for a test drive and read the reviews on the LS430 I was hooked.
Only one issue I could use some help with:
The trunk will not open from any of the key fobs, I works when I get close and push the button on the trunk but nothing when pushing the key fob. Any Ideas?

I just tested my key fob for the trunk, and it also does not open. I've had the car for 7 years and never knew this because the key fob never comes out of my pocket! I didn't even know it had a trunk release button on it.
I did run a test, locking the car, walking away and then hitting the key fob trunk button. That resulted in the trunk releasing with a response sound. I approached the car without having the key fob and found the doors to still being locked while the trunk was released.
So, I assume this design allows you to unlock the trunk as you approach the car using the key fob and allow someone nearer to the car to open the trunk.
