It's on the passenger side rear seat, but the photos show them retracted. The LS 460 L with special-order Exec Class Rear Seat Package gets the rear seat, right seat recliner with ottoman footrest and shiatsu/body massage, plus RSES, tray table, cool box...

wow!! Congrats!

Hmm, one thing I've noticed with the new LS, is the front seatbacks thinner? They look "thin" in the pictures. It's possible they did it to give more kneeroom for the rear seat passengers (swb model?) but I thought LS used to come with big, throne-like chairs that have thick seat bottoms and seatbacks.

That picture makes them look thinner but IMO a lot of it is the more angular, curvaceous design. When I sat inside the LS 460 L I felt the thickness of the seats was quite similar to the LS 430.

Yeah the 430 and 460 have the same general shape in terms of seats. But i think the new 460 has a much better interior. When i drove one a few weeks ago i felt connected with the car...but when i drive my moms LS i feel like im in a video game driving it, i dont feel connected.

Default Excellent

Beautiful Car. The light exterior and dark interior is perfect.

I have dark on dark which is nice too.

My truck space sucks, your must be just as bad if not worse.

The new LS defenitly brings a BIG smile to my face. Beautiful, congrats Genyosai.
Again, the more pics the better and try not to use the flashlight while taking pictures of the interior. (day/sun light pics are the best)

What did it cost you to have the windows tinted? Also, I am considering having it done. Will a window tint last five or six years if done correctly?

Definitely. I got something called FormulaOne on my GS and it was as good the day I sold it as when I had it put on. I think it was about $250.

i agree, as long as you get good tints it will last a very long time. i have had mine for 4 yrs and it's just like new

the price depends on where you are. in cali it's super cheap, but i know some other places are more expensive

It doesn't. It is lighting... called a flash (i'm not the best photographer). It was getting dark and on the rear the flash is more than on the front.

Thanks.

For me, the front seat has to be all the way forward, I'm 6' flat. The rear console has controls that reposition the front passenger seat. As a matter of fact, there's a "one button" feature that fully extends the seat and ottoman while moving the front seat at the same time. The front seat moves completely forward and then raises up, tilting forward.

The ottoman is only on the rear right. You can't see it in these left handed pics. Also, as I mentioned... these were quick pics and I need to take more detailed, cleaner pics.
