Just recently bought the 2013 LS460 and I am only 23. I think age has no boundary for rewarding yourself for hard work.

Age is nothing, if he can afford it then go for it.There are no age requirements when purchasing a car ( just a your checkbook is needed,lol) I was 29 when i purchased my LS600 and when my sales rep picked me up from the airport she thought the car was for my parents, but when i told her NO it was for me and that im the one cutting the check she told me that out of her 18 years of being a lexus sales rep she has never sold an LS to anyone under the age of 55.If your friend likes the overall feel of the car then tell him to go for it, also never base your purchase of anything on what others may think of you but only base them on what makes you happy.

my first car at age 17 was a 2008 Jeep Commander. (to pack in as many sophomore girls as possible. record: 10)
when I was 18 I got a 2008 Lexus ES350. (mothers old car. hated it at the time but was too young to appreciate it)
when I was 19 I had a 2009 Audi A4. (slow but fun and really good in the snow then I totaled it)
when I turned 20 I leased myself a brand new 2012 Infiniti G37x coupe. (lots of fun lots of power but cheap interior, fake luxury)
when I was 21 I decided I needed a 2009 Mercedes ML350. (snow mobile)
when my Infiniti lease was up at age 22 I bought a 2009 Audi A5. (fully loaded 3.2 has plenty of power, more luxurious cabin than the infiniti)

I was turning 23 when I bought my LS.
It is definitely geared toward the more mature driver.
One should note the difference between age and maturity.
23 may sound young. But when I factor in that I hustle harder than a lot of people twice my age, then in my opinion having an LS is only right.
Your personality is reflected in what you drive.
Are you a mature person with class who works hard?
Then it doesn't matter how old you are. If you like it, buy it.
At the end of the day its not like it matters what anyone has to say about it.

I never let a cars image dictate whether or not I buy it.

I buy what I like, I have grandma cars, muscle cars, performance cars. I like them all! Lol

First car was a Porsche at 18, then an LS430 UL at 19, and then the 460L in December (just turned 22).

It's what i like! Nobody can decide the means of transportation for you!

I glad to see that we are doing so well in life (under the age of 35 with no disrespect to the maturer gentlemen in the forum)to be able to afford these kind of cars.

This, and the fact that more in our generation have a maturing taste at a younger age, because i could easily go spend the same money on a Mustang GT/Camaro SS/WRX STI/Porsche Cayman S, etc. etc. etc. but would rather pamper myself! (some may just view us as lazy I suppose )

Not to say I may add a sports car to my fleet so that i can have a "weekend warrior" as well as a limo in the near future.
