you can go check, but i am pretty sure most of the ls460/ls460l have residual of around 50% after 3 yrs. that's the price you pay for luxury cars. price wise it might make sense to get one after 3 yrs, but there are a lot of people who prefer new 
i personally would prefer to pay more for a brand new car that i know i am the first owner
i personally would prefer to pay more for a brand new car that i know i am the first ownerI use to only buy new and would keep it till the next new thing.
However, after seeing the depreciation that my Lexus and my Mercedes was taking, I am seriously thinking about buying slightly used.
Cars are made so much better now that they can last well over 100,000 miles and I personally would rather use the money saved toward an investment that will give me some returns.
I will always have at least 1 new car in the stable but for daily drivers, getting a nicely used vehicle is not a bad idea.
