Just my opinion, but I think Lexus MUST offer an Al Wheel Drive system on the next Lexus 430.

My lease is up in 2006 and I'll be looking at the Audi A8 and the New Cadillac STS just because of the All Wheel Drive feature.

I live in a cold climate and I just love the idea of an All Wheel Drive sedan.

 

Have you considered putting snows on your car? I had snow tires on my GS and it made a great difference. I'm thinking about what I'm going to do with this LS. You get about as much snow up here as anywhere in the country, and the GS wasn't so bad in the snow. I'm hoping the LS will do okay.

Yeah...I've have snow tires for my LS.

In the past I owned an Audi A6 Quattro and you can't believe how stable that car was with all wheel drive.

Drove back from Chicago in a snowstorm around the lake and swear to God I was one of the only vehicles traveling at speed through the storm.

I just love the option of all wheel drive and hope Lexus, in their wisdom, will adopt this option on the LS.

 

Toyota Crown Majesta already has this option. I mean 4wd + 4ws.
Wait for 2-3 years for this option to become available to non-Japanese customers like US Lexus owners...
