Default New 04 Ls430 owner/member!

Hello everyone,

I've always wanted the LS400 and was fortunate to have recently bought a gorgeous black/black LS430 w/sport suspension, nav, Levinson stereo and back-up camara. The smoothness and power is AMAZING. It was a one-owner corporate vehicle w/20k on the odometer from california.

For those interested, i paid 32.5k before taxes at luxurymotors here in vegas.
(I think I got a fair price).

Also wanted to say this forum really helped me in my research, thank you all.

What year is your Continental?

Your LS is very nice, hope you enjoy it, and welcome to the club.....but I like your Continental more than your LS & my LS combined. That is a real good looking car. What year is it?

Title says it's an 04. The previous owner probably just upgraded the wheels to the 05+.
