True but the hybrid comes in one loaded model only.

I wouldn't turn down the ML after hearing all the rave reviews but the only thing that would is price. In Canada, they love to put the ML with Nav and a whole bunch of other options totalling $5-10k depending on vehicle. So we can't really separate the ML option which is annoying.

One thing the way I see it, if your willing to spend an x-amount on the LS it should have it standard.

If you want quality, it should come standard and not as an option.

Plus I think if your willing to spend the amount of money on the LS, I dont think anyone would argue that the Mark Levinson soundsystem is adding way to much to the cost.

When ML first came out in a Lexus back in 2001, i contaced ML and made believe i was interested in buying a sound system. If i recall the sales sent me a packet i think, and there was a pair of speakers that were about 50k and maybe one that reached 6 digits but i cant recall correctly. ML>B&O at least in home systems, hopefully the new ML in the LS sets the standard again.

i wouldn't say that. i know for a fact that there are people who is willing and ready to get the LS and they ask for one even without nav
