Default LS460 Specification up at Canada site

http://www.lexus.ca/lexus/experience...2006#dimension
http://www.lexus.ca/lexus/experience...2007#dimension

LS460 rear space is quite smaller than LS430
legroom: 35.8 versus 37.6 inches
shoulder room: 56.9 versus 58.2 inches

The LS460 is wider and has longer wheelbase than its predecessor! This cannot be and I hope this information is incorrect.

For comparison purposes, the SWB 750i has 37.2 inches of rear leg room.

i don't know, but i sat in the ls460 (non l) before and from my feeling, i did feel that the rear is not as spacious as i thought. i think the current ls430 has larger rear space. but it was my feeling since there were no numbers to compare

The numbers contradict the ones from this article, which says the LS460 has 1.8 inches *longer* in the rear (not shorter)

I cannot comment about the accuracy of the Canadian site, but they have changed specs. before.
They listed the new IS350 last year at 310 hp initially, but later changed it to 306 hp (same as U.S. ), so their preliminary spec. numbers may not be final

dunno, longer doesn't doesn't mean it's wider and higher. volume could still be different. again i don't know the final numbers, but just by sitting in both cars, i kinda felt the difference between both

I’m guessing that was before the new SAE testing procedures, where HP numbers used to be rounded up to the nearest 5.

Not sure how they came up with that number before, it's still about 320+hp for the IS350 in Japan I think
Anyway, my point is just that what they put up there initially may not be final

shouldn't it be LCA?

Edit: PCS is available in both LS in a Technology Package. I don't know about LCA.
