And you're right, the LS 460 is a great light traffic commuter. I personally think this may be the best commuter car I've ever driven...the gas mileage is very competitive...the highway ride is stable and easy...the power is always there when you need and the comfort is top notch. Great commuter. Plus the car can steer like a much smaller car...makes parking a breeze.
85K.

I'm try to put miles on our Chevy and Lexus loaners whenever possible. Lol.

Oh that's just a baby, I figured you had 200,000 plus.

The 460, but I have a feeling that the 430 May last longer.

Yep. Same same engine but different compression ratios. So the GS 460 is less picky on gas, but not slower as its lighter.
