LMAO! Best post of the thread! I was thinking the same thing -- If I was Audi, BMW, or MB I'd blow up that photo and run the lame little Youtube "reveal" video on a continuous loop in every dealership.

The non F - sport is much more flagship like and rightly so. Interesting how the indicators work as hazard warning lights. Didn't quite expect that look.

I love it too. What amazing craftsmanship. I wonder if it would be a stand alone option and what the asking price is.

ha ha I can't stop shaking my head at that picture. What were they thinking? The LS460 definitely have some nice upgrades but I still fine the center console cheesy and not so sure about the grill. The cars is saying hey look at me!! Lexus have some nice cars but imo they are terrible at marketing. Well I take that back they sure can market the RX.

nice reviews, but that black f-sport bumper bar looks so out of place on an LS...
