Several interesting comparisons...

LF-Sh vs. LS 460/460L...

Not much different but rims, grille, lights, exhaust details...

 

Cabin differences...note the more curved angles used in the 430, and more angular in the 460...

 

Side view...it seems the wood paneling on the 460 tends more towards long, thin stripes with 'beveled' edges, whereas the 430 tends toward curved bars.

Also, on the previous picture, I'm sure the 460 touchscreen is larger, perhaps the picture angle or zoom isn't accurate.

 

Good observations....And oh yeah, I'll take both cars.

 

I wonder why the front passenger doesnt have 3 memory settings like on the new GS.

 

yeah, i noticed the harder and sharper lines on the new lexus. i didn't really like the one in the gs, but i am starting to get used to it

 

Great pics enigma354!

It’s cool to see evolutionary pics of the LS that are all from the same POV.

 

Nice comparison enigma

 

This is excellent!

 

The wood dash in the LS460 doesn't appear to be as prominent as the LS430's but it's just as luxurious. And obviously more modern with its new sleek lines. Wonderful pics of both cars, as you truly get to appreciate each car and their distinct designs.

 

anyone notice that the ls460 seats are not as "complicated" looking as the gs and the is? i kinda wish the seats to be kinda the gs and is with more lateral support. but seems like the seats are still going to be pretty flat

 

I wonder when we'll start to see some pricing models?

I also wonder if anyone will attempt to quantify the difference in noise, vibration, and harshness between the two models. The LS430 was already king of the hill in that respect, I wonder if the LS460 tried to improve upon that or focused more on improving its primary critisism (driving experience = boring) to become all things to all people. Personally I hope they just made the car that much quieter and smoother than before, though the looks and specs certainly seem more angled toward 'sport'...

 

. . . there are details about it's new air suspension that's yet to be revealed . . .

 

Nice pictures!! You can definitely see the similarities.

Yes, I can't wait till they announce all the details about the new LS. I think we will be in for a GREAT surprise.

 

I think they need to drop the air suspension idea altogether and go with something like GM's magnaride system. Less reliability issues, quicker response time, wider range of settings, etc...
