I was ex S-Class owner and always used German cars ever since I got my driver's license starting from Volkswagen Passat R36, than BMW 530i than Mercedes S350. My first Japanese car is this beauty and I am totally blown away with the drive quality of LS430 it drives better than any German vehicle I ever drove and owned! Before this moment I always underestimated Lexus and thought its just an expensive Toyota but hell no, Lexus is different realm.... specially LS430 is a car that drives better than most modern vehicles, its robust, repair friendly and far less complicated than the Germans is what I learned after owning it for 5 months now... I am loving it to the core and can't ask for anything better.

I do have some plans to accessorize it with body kits, chrome kits, pinstripe it... but not stance it or lower is too much.
congrats on the LS430 welcome to the club
