Very nice. Gotta love a reliable car..
|
Nice! Do you drive it a lot? I find that most members on here don't have a big commute and therefore you don't see too many high mileage 460's around here.
|
You will always have your garage queens LS's but there are many high mileage LS's simple because owners like myself truly enjoy driving our LS.
|
They grow up so fast, don't they!? Lets see how the next 100k goes. Based on others who've reached that milestone, you'll still be gushing about it. I'm at 140k or so now and I'm confident that she'll continue to impress me and won't let me down.

Couple months ago I posted some info on a 460 I found at the auto auction with somewhere around 280K on it. It had a very thorough maintenance history, but not really much needed to be done to it. I don't remember what repairs it had, but for the mileage it was getting, it wasn't much.
I'll see f I can find that post and link it here.. |

Here's the thread I started back in September.
https://www.clublexus.com/forums/ls-...ml#post9632042 It would be interesting to pull the VIN and see how the last 6 months have been for this car... |

My commute is 60-something miles a day, RT, but only four days a week. It's effectively my dedicated DD, as if my wife and I go anywhere, we take her RX300. Roadfrog, I did the maths on it, and even at 60+ miles/day, it could, theoretically, be the last DD I own. I could do much, much worse. :-) |

Well, I got it in late-October...I think...with 93K on it.

I've never been a BMW guy, but I did like the two Mercedes machines I've owned. Both from the old-world style of build quality (i.e., before Toyota handed them their heads with the LS400).
An '89 420SEL and a '95 E320. Both were quite solid, and the S-class...that car was just amazing. |

They're very nice riding cars, but the LS is close. Even the current S550, rides and drives incredibly well, but I was surprised when getting back into my LS460 after driving a $115,000 example...did it ride $35,000 better than it? Not IMO.

Yes, there's something about BMW and, to a slightly lesser extent, MBZ ability to get just the right balance of ride and handling. As I've aged, though, my priority has changed from handling to ride - hence the transition from BMW to Lexus for my personal ride.
