Default Newbie on the forum I bought a Ls460L yesterday

Hello everyone I wanted to introduce myself now that I own a LS 460L I will have plenty of questions. I been reading post on here for sometime only hoping to own a LS someday. The car I purchased is 2007 CPO with 50k and has every option except the Executive pkg. The car was 900 miles from me which I did not like because I always bought local. I live (down da Joisey Shore) lol so I hope this 4 letter word Snow goes away. It's going to be a learning curve to understand all the bells and whistles on the car.
I will be talking to you soon and thanks to the people who run this fine forum.
John

Welcome!

It's definitely an exciting car. What did you drive before?

Hi John, welcome to CL!

But you can't get away that easy on your first thread. We need pics, details on color combo, where was 900 miles away and other stuff like that.

Thanks for the welcome well my last car was a Lincoln Town car and before that I always bought Cadillacs.
I got sick of replacing water pumps and window motors. However I always drove a Tacoma for my business and got 400k on my last one.

Thanks for the reply it was scary buying site unseen.
Now I need to figure out how to listen to music from my iPhone 5 in the car I was reading the BT will not sync my music so I guess the 3.5 mm jack to the aux input ?

Correct. You could also get aftermarket accessories to stream your BT.
I believe Blackberry has a small adapter but I never tried. AUX works fine for me... It just sucks cause you have to control from the phone and you can't use your steering controls or head unit.
