Current Lexus LS

BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and other luxury automakers scoffed when Toyota first announced its impending assault on the premium motorcar market. They aren’t laughing now, especially with the redesigned 2007 Lexus LS 460 arriving in showrooms soon. Highlights of the new car include a high-powered gas/electric hybrid version called the LS 600hL, as well as features such as an integrated hard disc that can hold 4,000 songs, self-parking capability, a right rear seat that reclines up to 45 degrees and includes both a foot rest and a massager, and infrared night vision technology. This car is a threat to the new 2008 BMW 7 Series.
