Hi everyone!!!

I am so happy that I got some free time to post. It has been crazy summer, business is finally going well, I am finally on vacation in Europe and my baby XK finally arrived almost four weeks ago!!

I was lookin around some Euro magazines and this came up! Autobild's first drive/comparo of LS460L and S500L

Interesting short read! A lot of photos and 1 video!

HERE is the translated link of the comparison.

I will post some photos

Wow it looks great next to the S. They make it sound like it has a special suspension?

WOW!! Nice pics and video!

Here's the direct link to the video BTW:

No reason it doesn't work unless you don't even have a Windows Media Player.

Try navigating to the video instead using my direct link then.

Stopped reading the article after a few paragraphs translation makes no sense. But good to see how the LS460L looks next to the S-Class.

I think those pics are from the short-wheel-base version. One rear-shot clearly shows just "LS460"

Is it me or the rear wheels seem a bit "tucked in" ... i.e. "little leg" look ... i.e. "not a muscular wide stance" look

That black wood interior is awesome... Makes mine look like
a Corolla, LOL!

Wow, great video. Found it very ironic listening to german voices describing and praising the new LS. LOL

That wood trim looks amazing. It does look great next to the S-class.

LEXUS FAN!

i tried to read through the transaltion... i believe it said the LS came on top, correct?

all the L-finesse cars look like they are so disproportionate in pictures, especially official ones...and their nose looks droopy

but when you see them in person or normal in-peron pictures, it looks beuatiful and flowing

The LS 460 looks great next to the S-Class. Makes the S-Class actually a bit boring unless you mean the AMG version.

While I like the prestige look of the star emblem on the hood, one thing I definitely DON'T like about all MBs is the "nose dive" look. The front always looks so much lower than the rear.

I like to see a car as close to level as possible.

Very Nice

Glad to see something written about the car's abilities other then Lexus.

Nice video.

I could not see any pictures from the translated website. Must be the conversion of the languages that show a "Not Found" error.
