Is this the perfect car?
Lexus LS 460L...wow...add a computer to that and you got gold right there.
80 grand though.

I have to say that our local Chrysler dealer charges WAAY more than the vw dealer, plus the service sucks balls.
Believe me, once you go German, you never go back  .
But let's not make this into an german vs. japenese cars thread.

Allright dude, you get my point....and I am sure in ~5 years they will make great cars...like I said, once they have eliminated all the old Americaness like town and country and pt cruiser.

If you give me a 07 LS460 (LS460L is better) and a 07 Benz S500, I will take the LS without 2nd thought. Benz these day is just as suck as Chrysler.
I drove both of them already, and no, I don't have money for neither one of them. Oh yeah a set of chrome wheels on the LS cost 12 kilobucks. Crazy.

Germans are always on the kick they don't make bad products. It's never their fault if a part fails.
Problem is when it does break..it's uber expensive.
Take this from someone who works in an Automotive Warranty department for the worlds largest OEM parts supplier owned by Germans.

You mean S550, right ? Well dude you should take a test drive in both, and then decide. I just grew up in German cars, and I will never drive a ricer, everything on them just looks cheap, squeaks. When I first saw Japanese luxury cars I was like wtf? they call that luxury?...nobody even drives them in Europe, the Acura TL is the Honda Accord in Europe..if you told somebody there it is a luxury car they would laugh their a$s of.

Germans know how to make cars
Japanese make the best sushi
Italians know how to make pasta
The Turskish make good kebabs
Americans know how to bully the world
there are some things that some countries do, you just can't beat!
