No charge. I did a lot of research on run-flat tires (RFTs) and found that they don't last very long, ride rough, have high road noise, and have flats more often. In fact, my car had a window sticker warning the buyer of rapid tire wear. My conclusion is that RFTs are not quite ready for prime-time. Maybe in a few years. I have been very happy with my Michelins - non-RFTs. Al wow you would think with the price tag of the car that they came with some quality tires that last and perform good

We bought our GS460 in November and we love it. We had driven the Infiniti M and G many times as rentals and actually planned to buy the M on the day we drove the GS460. We drove the Infiniti M and then drove an ES and then the GS. Here's why we bought the Lexus GS: ride quality, performance, sound system. The GS has no wind noise that we've noticed. In the "sport" mode the GS reminded us of the BMW550 and was superior to the Infinity. IMHO the sound system in the Lexus (Mark Levinson) is far superior to either the BMW or the Infinity, in part due to the road noise of the Infinity. Lexus Nav system doesn't have a hard drive like the Infinity and has a lock-out feature you can read about in the forums that frustrates all of us, but I can't imagine not having it. We didn't like the idrive on the BMW, but the trunk space on the BMW is better than on the Lexus. The 20-way BMW seats are wonderful, the Infiniti seats were ok but we really like our perforated leather seats. Have fun shopping! :) Thanks for that information it helps out tremendously, could you tell me what car had more room as far as Leg and Head room in the front and back seat of the car

From navigating this forum i am seeing alot of people complaining about the ES 350 but i havent had any problems whatsoever since i bought the car last year, currently my wife's car has 10k and we havent had anything go wrong or notice anything that would raise a concern

Did they charge you extra for chagning out the tires and give you the price break, also why did you change out the run flat tires...are they not worth it?

I think its the dealerships that leave a bad taste as for me i have nothing but praise for lexus, my wife simply adores her ES 350, she even loved the old ES 330 but she waited for the 350 and i bought her one back in Feb 07 with the ultra luxury package and its an AWESOME car, the ML sound system is one of the best i've ever heard stock on a car and the Gen 5 Nav system is great as well as the MPG and power the car has, i am truly impressed and to date no problems at all. Now for the dealership i have to say i experienced maybe the best customer service i have ever received before my purchase and during my purchase and even better after my purchase, now i cant say that all dealerships are the same but Lexus of Annapolis treated me with the up most respect no matter how i showed up dressed and being that i live far away from them they came to my house picked up my wif'es car for service and dropped off a loaner vehicle for her to use now if thats not service then i dont what is...even when my wifes's car got hit they took care of the car and took it to their repair shop that specializes in repairing lexus's and made it brand new and even detailed for free for me that is why i'm considering buying another lexus

I bought an 07 ES 350 with the Ultra Luxury Package and i mean this car has every option available, its Flint Mica with the Light color grey interior and i got it brand new for 37800 out the door, then again i was at the dealership until 9pm working the deal out and i guess i got the deal cause of 2 reasons..1-they were tired of gojng back and forth with numbers and 2- they had quite a few ES 350 not moving anywhere

First off just want to say hello to all fellow lexus owners as i am new to this forum, ok with that out the way here is my question i'm looking at buying a sedan within the next few months or so and i am wondering what do you guys think of your GS 460...what price range should i be looking at?...i want a fully loaded GS with a Mark levinson system and Navi...now is the sound system worth the extra dollars or not?...is the navi worth the extra dollars?...how is the ride quality?...do you get alot of road noise?...also what did you guys pay out the door for it?...sorry if its too many questions but i'm trying to do my homework before i make my next purchase. Currently my wife drives an 07 ES 350 which IMHO is a great car, she has the ML system with navi and the ride quality and MPG is awesome but i noticed that Lexus does not offer XM traffic update with the Nav system except on the Ls but Infiniti offers it on their M class, has anybody ever dealt with the xm traffic system previously?...hope you guys/gals can give me some good advice
