Glad they finally updated the LS. Lets see that took only 9 years.

My wife thinks she wants to get one. I am trying to get her to get a Denali instead but we will see who prevails.

I'll take a Denali and pocket $25k. Of course, if I was a multi-millionaire I might roll the LX570.
wow, u are comparing a denali to a lexus? dont make me laff. them 2 are not even in the same league. i think the car would be hot with some big mud tires! or 26s.

also, the land cruiser is the most expensive car toyota makes. even the LC is gonna cost 55gs.

What does "laff" mean, genius?

And yes, I was comparing a Denali to a Lexus. Drive them both and you might be damn surprised how close they are in refinement and driving experience.

It looks like they upgraded it but the rear end looks like the Navigator. The front end doesn't quite flow right. They are trying to morph the LS grill on a truck chassis. The interior is definetly a step up. I was hoping for a longer wheelbase. Its only 4 inches longer and 1 inch wider.

Interior is good but doesn't seem to have any real theme. It's well done but very forgettable.
The exterior is likewise. It doesn't say this thing is any more special than a RAV-4. The tail lights look like they were stolen from a Lincoln after some time melting over the radiator. Not a good look. It's ok on the Navigator because at least it looks intentional. The Lexus looks like no one really cared.

Meh, looks just like a Toyota, ergo cheaper than it costs.
