Welcome to the club! Look forward to seeing a few photos of your beautiful LS. Here's a recent one for my Autumn Shimmer under the fall foliage.

TigetJacks, How do you manage to pull your car so close to the wall in front of the car without the car applying the brakes? I used to have an LS460L and I had a large cardboard box against the wall. I would pull the car in until it just about touched the cardboard box. The first time I pulled the LS500 in the car slammed on the brakes as it thought I was going to collide with the cardboard box -- and it gave me one heck of a scare as I thought I had hit something.

Shinonclub: I'll post some pictures in the next day or two. I took some this morning and need to process them. You have a really beautiful color.

Here are some pictures that I took: (however I can't figure out why the link from Flickr shows the images twice! When I edit it only shows me one of each.)

Well I get that big RED box on the instrument panel every time I pull the car in and the car abruptly STOPs hahahahaha. So now, I've learned that if I pull in extremely slow for the last 4 feet, I don't get the error as often. LOL - I installed a wall monitor that notifies me when I'm 6 inches from the wall. I also put a sponge on the wall just in case I accidentally hit it. I'll upload pictures later today. I'll also upload more pics of the car as well.
