Thanks for all the warm welcomes!
I was so impressed with this car the first time I drove it. It has a quality about it that was so unexpected. It reminds me of how Mercedes used to feel before they got all wrapped up in trying to handle like a BMW, but with a higher degree of engineering precision.
I'm am taking it on a several thousand mile road trip soon. I'm looking forward to giving my impressions afterwards. I do believe I picked the perfect vehicle for this.

Very nice find! In my short few yrs of driving, I started out with an American car (was my parents' oldest car...really turned me off from American cars), then 2 Germans, and now the Lexus. I really liked my 95 5 series a lot, felt extremely solid and high quality despite being so old. I wasn't anywhere as impressed with the 07 3 series though.
I totally agree with you, the LS has that feel of old German solidity to it with added Japanese reliability. I would say you bought one of the finest luxo cars around for the price of an average new car. Congrats!

Well the Lexus currently has to share space with 3 European cars. But when it's parked in the garage it looks like it owns the place!
Silver was never my favorite color, but when I saw this car it seemed to work perfectly with the style. Plus it's a good color in the Texas heat and dust.
Another reason I went with the Lexus is the dealership experience. Wow, these guys know how to do it right!
