I have an '04 LS430, bought secondhand last fall. Sport suspension, no Ultra Luxury Package but otherwise loaded. It's as close to the all- around perfect car as anything I've ever driven.
I do have one gripe, however, and that's the self- dimming rearview mirror.
The problem is that if the mirror dims at all in response to the headlights of other cars, it's so subtle that I don't notice it.
And there's no manual override, only a button that turns the self-dimming feature on and off. I've taken to raising the sunshade to reduce the glare in the mirror when I drive at night.
Before I have the mirror checked out during the car's next trip to the dealership for service, I wanted to see whether this is a common complaint.
Any feedback from other LS430 owners out there?
