Hi everyone,

I picked up my CPO LS460 a few days ago and I'm crazy about it. I guess with this group of car enthusiasts I don't have to go into all the details as you know all about it but what a ride, what luxury, what cool options and what a gem of a powertrain. I'm very impressed with the car, as is my family.

It's a black 08 with cashmere interior and wood trim which is gorgeous IMO.

On to the pics: (a couple from the dealer ad and some since taking delivery):







And my favorite so far although only a bad phone pic like above: A Japanese marvel next to a Japanese Maple.

This looks like a great forum to learn and post about Lexus vehicles so I look forward to that.

All the best,

J

Congrats and welcome to the Forum. Great info on this site and I'm sure you will enjoy your 2008 LS. I just sold my 08 and picked up a 2012 LS. If your new car is anything like my 08, you will really enjoy it. I sold my 08 to a friend (normally a dangerous proposition, selling a car to a friend, gulp) and he called me again this AM to compliment me on how great the car was doing. Anyway, welcome to the Lexus LS Club!

Welcome. Looks great and low miles. Enjoy it. Be prepared to start changing all kinds of little things as you look at what others have done to their vehicles. The link TEE posted above is a great place to go. It has tons of mods and things to do to your LS. Check out the lighting section.

Thanks everyone for the nice welcome!

The FAQ and Tips section is really great and I've been using some of those tips already.

Nice looking set of wheels. Welcome to the wonderful world of LS ownership.

Be prepared to have your co-workers want you to drive to lunch for a while.

Gorgeous color combo, and one of my favorite interior color packages!

Enjoy the new ride, and welcome to the LS family!
