I have two 2008 LS 600 HLs. Car1 has 42,000 miles and car2 has 61,000 miles.
Both are Nieman Marcus editions.
...
I am seeking advice and comments on my situation. What would you do? Sell/trade in? Or keep for another 2 years?

I had the same issue: Too many LS! Finally I kept the one with the lowest milage and keep it at least until 2016 because the 2013 model has a few updates only. I expected one hybrid with LFA engine & sound but there is none.

All you need is VOSSEN wheels and VAIS Technology iVIC to change the 2008 LS600hL from best to amazing.

In fact, I think Lexus has the worst of the wheel designs, as compared to its peers.

What kind of wheels does the pebble beach edition have? Do the nieman marcus edition or the pebble beach edition have different interiors? I thought the difference was only that the nieman marcus edition came with special wheels and a luggage set. Whats a pebble beach edition?

The normal 600s don't have advanced pre collision? Really? I would think that they would be fully equiped.. Are you sure they don't have A P C S?

correct, 600HLs from 08-09 do not have APCS unless they are launch vehicles (Neiman) or Pebble Beach (09). 2010+ it is available on all models with a long wheelbase.
