Official 2013 Lexus LS460/460L/600hL & F-Sport thread
#167
What about SWB models? I posted SWB and LWB for the LS. I think they are all pretty similar. I guess what I mean to say is TO ME Benz/Lexus seems to do a good job with different size, similar style b/c I never confuse them. In regards to Audi/BMW, I have confused the models and more so than ever. And like you I'm a car guy
LS 430 was 196 inches long, 2GS 189 inches long. LS was far taller and wider. Lexus used to brag how the LS didn't grow much in length from the 1989 LS but interior room and trunk room was far greater. The LS 430 is deceptively big. (it is a big car!)

s swb - 200
so they are all pretty much in the same range.
i actually think bmw does a decent job in sizing the 5 and 7. 7 looks much bigger and bulkier with taller front. i do think 3 and 5 looks pretty close though.
and you are correct, old ls feel big but they aren't actually much bigger than the gs. it's not until ls460 that they really grew in length

I think this is the best looking Lexus in the lineup. Even with the 'small' wheels (The F-Sport that is). That black interior with the black layered wood and aluminum trim, perfect.

Am I the only one who is very dispointed by the interior and exterior? I think the design is what a Lexus GS should be, but not for Lexus flagship. I hope sun is not setting on Lexus after seem recent GS, ES and now the LS. . I will still keep an open mind and go see the LS in person this Oct.

still have to say overall, it's a damn nice car.
def prefer the non f-sport over the f-sport though.
