Default Lexus ls460 limited edition?!

I'm looking into a 2008 Lexus ls460 limited edition? Never knew they made one until I came across this ad. Does anybody know if there's any difference besides the little emblem on the fender? Also... What do y'all think about the car and price? Here's the link to the ad.

In 2008 there was a limited edition Neiman Marcus model, but I think it was only in the LS600h.

Nothing about those pictures stands out to me except the limited edition carpet vaccum job.

Only special editions I have heard of are the 2008 Neiman Marcus Edition (as noted above) and 2009 Pebble Beach Edition LS600's and this is neither of them.

Yes, there is a 2011 touring edition. Here is the link:

Also, a special Sport edition came out in 2012:

These are common in end of lifecycle vehicles with declining sales to spur sales before the new model is released...in this case, the redesigned 2013 LS.

The touring and sport to me aren't limited edition cars, they made those more than one year and there was no special badging, etc.

I did, that is why I said "to me" but I do see the special edition sport and I stand corrected! Reading comprehension not so good tonight.
