As the regulars & the lurkers know, my LS430 was totaled 3 weeks ago and I have been on the hunt for a replacement. I found my new baby in TX after searching, negotiating etc for a week, flew out to Plano TX yesterday morning to pick her up and drove 13 hrs back to the ATL. I got hm 4:30 this morning, it was a great ride but I'm beat since I got only a few hrs of sleep. I'm very excited, happy the process is finally over b/c I'm sick of Cars.com, ebaymotors, auto trader, craigslist, local listings you get the point. Now with out further a due I introduce you to my 07 LS460 Black Sapphire Pearl (Dark Blue) with cashmere leather.

Thx!

Yes I could hear it but it was not loud and with the raido on you really canpt hear or notice it.

Congrats. That's a beauty! :thumbup:

The colour is nice and I like how in different light it can chameleon between blue and blackish looking. It'll look even better with tints, good call.

Yea I also heard that some '07 owners have said the cabin can sound as if it's not completely sealed with some noise from the side rearview mirror areas.

I'm hoping to hear that issue is minimal (if existent) because this car is too nice for little things to be of concern.

Nice P/U!

Tee,

Congratulations, she's gorgeous. Out of curiosity, why didn't you buy from one of our (I'm also in ATL) dealers?
