If some of the 600 didnt come with radar cruise and rear entertainment systems, I wonder why in the world did Lexus even produce them and call it a 600. IMO the 600 is supposed to come with all BUTTONS thats what put it in the flagship status category!!!! or am i missing something here

well since there is no 460 hybrid I am guessing the 600 stands for hybrid first and foremost rather then for "top of the line" LS.
If it was like you say that all 600 should have ALL the options available then all would have the executive seating, no?

anyhow it did seam strange not to see the radar cruise button on the wheel but see the smooth decal...

While I was looking, I even saw one without the rear AC and controls; i.e., the armrest in the rear looked like it does on a base LS460. I had read that other than Mark Levinson and air suspension, the other stuff was optional. What I couldn't believe is that somebody would actually order the car like that. There is one that I saw listed back in June - gorgeous color but lacking these options. It is still for sale, and it's a post-2010 model car.

You can buy a 07 or 08 LS460 with under 100k all day long for that price. It seems to me you would be just a glutton for pain to pay that for a 170k car of any make at all.

The 460 isn't the same... But I will heed your warning.

Is it that one http://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-s...24057454&Log=0

If so, few things:

1. Investigate the minor accident
2. Car has extensive service history including changing the hybrid battery at 109k miles three years ago

3. Make sure it was not used for lemo service
