Soon to be LS owner!

Hey guys!! I recently sold my SC300 and found myself lost in my Jaguar looking for a REAL car!

The Lexus dealership is delivering my (new to me) 03 LS430 Ultra Lux in White tomorrow morning.

Any advice on these cars? It is Certified Pre-owned but the dealership is over 2 hours away.

I've owned SEVERAL Lexus' but this my first step into an LS.

Updated: PICS!

Yep, just have to find a nice set of 19s" I like.

Someone told me that the Ultra Lux sits lower than others. It that true? Something about the air suspension,

The Jag actually wasn't a bad car at all. I'm a Lexus guy though. I knew I would end up in a Lexus again, just not 6 months after buying the Jag.

I had a few issues with owning a Jag.. First off, the loss of value. Secondly, it was underpowered. Third, No dealership within 2 hours.

I also got tired of trying to talk on the phone or type on the Blackberry (which I have to do all day) while driving a 5spd.
