The Lexus LS430
The first thing you notice about the Lexus flagship upon entry is the size of the thing, with a dashboard and steering wheel that looks transplanted from the Toyota Landcruiser-based LX470, or a Mack truck.
I don't drive Lexus LS430s (or LS400s for that matter) as often as I would like. There is always the temptation to not return the car when Lexus wants it back, and then I'd be in trouble.
Lexus LS430
Summary:
Lexus is not what is perceived they have several reliability issues, but they use their spin to elud ...
5 seconds, quicker than a Lexus LS430 and much quicker than an Acura RL. The twin-turbocharged T6 engine develops 280 foot-pounds of torque at just 1800 rpm, and maintains it up to 5000 rpm.
We did the same back in 2005 for a Lexus LS430 and it still has cost nothing more than scheduled service and it was bought at 1/2 the price of when it was new (w/a 100k warranty we didn't have to use). We'll be keeping that one.
Although the Q45 has been around as long as the Lexus LS430, it hasn't achieved the same amount of respect, mostly due to its dismal advertising introduction; if you recall, the ad campaign showed rocks and trees, not the vehicle.

The new BMW 7-Series is a real head turner that ups the ante in luxury and has a more aggressive presence on the road than the Mercedes S-Class or Lexus LS430.
Besides, the numbers above are difficult to translate into any meaningful steps because the NHTSA does not define a car or a light truck very well (the PT Cruiser is classifed as a light truck whereas as Lexus LS430, a much heavier vehicle, ...
It’s heavy side of light with a positive feel, quite unlike the XG30, or a Lexus LS430 for that matter. And it doesn’t lose feel as you corner, like so many large car systems do. Really quite okay.
The XJ8 starts at $59,995 - more than $9,000 less than the BMW 745i and more than $13,000 less than the Mercedes-Benz S430, notes Jaguar, which lists other competitors as the Lexus LS430, Infiniti Q45 and Audi A8, ...
