In a previous post i wondered why the 600h's were so rare. I now have the answer.

Just wondering, what you ladies and gentlemen are driving.

460. My garage won't fit the L without some serious rearranging.

I sold my 430 now in a 2007 460. Close call as to which I like best. The 430 was way ahead of its time.

All my Lexus cars are in my sig below. My current 08 LS460 is the best vehicle I have ever owned. Short of having the USB port, it's a perfect car. My 430 was ok.

Ditto. By a long shot.......and I've owned a LOT of cars in my time. So reliable and without any drama whatsoever.

'08 LS + Vaistech MML + Lexus USB & Aux port == perfect car.

I'll post some pix if people want; it's not a hard mod. Looks totally OEM and works (I think) better than the USB integration in the '10+

I couldn't vote again but +1 for an LS430.

roadfrog

We want. Make it happen!

Could you please give details on how it works better than the USB integration on the 2010+ LS models? Thanks!

Can you please start a thread and tell us more? You're making me want to do the same thing to my '08. Sounds like a mod that would "feel" totally factory.

roadfrog

Agree! Plus it we won't be hijacking this thread. I want to hear (and see) more about it,

Like...yesterday!

Back to the topic at hand... I bought the SWB because, like for some other folks, the LWB wouldn't easily fit in our garage. I also didn't need the extra legroom in the back; the SWB has plenty, in fact it has more lrear legroom than the non-extended wheelbases of most other luxury brands I looked at My only regret is that I couldn't find a 2010 SWB LS460 with ML, Comfort Plus, and DRCC/PCS, so I made do without the DRCC/PCS.

I searched nationally for the 2008 ML/C+ car I just bought, and I think I looked at pictures of every pre-2011 SWB RWD LS below 100k miles on the market nationwide within the last month or so. I didn't see a single SWB with DRCC. I think it's a very rare combination, if produced at all.

Over the course of several months, I recall seeing 2 SWB with DRCC:

1. 2008 with ML/C+, high 5XK miles, in CA. If I had known the combo was so rare, I might have bought it! The price seemed high at almost $28K. The car seemed in excellent shape. It sold within a week.

2. 2009 with ML, but no C+., low 6XK miles, in FL. The car was in good shape, but would have needed some interior and exterior touch up. I still really wanted the C+ package.

Neither of those cars had an exterior/interior color combination that was particularly exciting to me.
