cheaper alternative to LS460L?
It may be sacrilege to ask this on a Lexus forum, but are there any less expensive sedans that would satisfy my criteria? They are: i) ample rear legroom, ii) soft suspension, iii) seats on the firmer side of things. I've tried a bunch of cars, and haven't found anything yet except the LS460L. It seems ridiculous to me that I need a flagship luxury car to get what appear to be basic comforts. Is there anything else out there for me?

The Hyundai Equus looks like it might be a viable alternative. I have to say I'm impressed with their iPad owners manual.

Thank you all for the input. I've tried the Avalon, and I found the seats too mushy. I haven't been in an Equus, but it appears it's only available RWD, which is a problem for me here in the snowbelt. So it's back to the LS460L, which isn't going to be cheap since I'm going to have to get a 2009 or 2010 to get AWD.
I'd get the Avalon if there's something I could do to "firm up" the seats. Does anyone know of a fix in this regard?
