This thread makes me want a LS so much. Sucks they’re gas hogs and cost more to maintain! Maybe for my next car

If you did get an Ultra Luxury LS, don’t let the air suspension scare you away. It can be swapped over to a normal OEM strut and spring setup or an aftermarket coilover setup.

I also drove a base model LS430 for a while and definitely prefer the look of the dash in that car versus mine. Aftermarket radios look better since you only have one screen instead of two if you go that route.
Interesting. Is there a MASSIVE difference between the ride of an UL LS430 and the BASE MODEL LS430?

It really tempts me too. I feel owning it as a second car and not as a daily driver would be an excellent choice. Especially for it to be used on those long trips. I have heard people getting 29 mpg highway on these tanks. Which is definitely off paper but still achievable. But city driving unfortunately is another story.
