Not sure if anyone saw this article or these pictures.

Supposedly the pictures were captured by Motor Trend but not published in their review.

 

Pics linked directly:

 

It was actually published, but it was a collage of pics in a small 3x4inch box.

Some people have mocked at it already as any car can smoke their tires when it's out of control...

 

NICE! Cool pics!

 

What will they say next???

I was reading some stuff at autospies. It sounds like the German army are club members and are ready to kill anyone not a MD fan. Either that or they are all 10 year olds.

 

Funny you should post those pics up. I just picked up that issue of Motortrend. It is in the current issue (October) and there is a full article on the 460. Still reading through it. Pick it up, pics are great.

 

I hate the drifting picture. It makes the LS look very fat. yuk! It is cool that an LS can do that now.

 

Well it is. It weighs over 4,000lbs and is a very long car. It does look odd, but I find the pic kinda funny.

 

Whooo that whale is sexy!

LS430 looks a lot better, at least more composed anyways.
Sport package on the LS460 anyone?

 

lol.. those guys mustve been having some fun with the test vehicle.. i would be doing the same too if i could do whatever i wanted with a brand new car that hasnt hit the market yet..

 

indeed, although the pics look amazing showing the power of the car, i find it pretty funny. a car of this big *** size doing that

 

Found the Motor Trend article where these peel out pictures came from.

My first impression was that it must be a photoshop
I couldn't have imagined 460 doing that

 

Mine won't do that until the week before I trade it in

 

Let me just say that not pressing the pedal to the metal on an open strectch is very hard. This thing flys. I have been driving at 30mph on the streets and New York traffic on the highway is give and take. There is no problem passing anyone. Can't wait until I pass the 600 mile mark so I can let it loose.
