Stopped in to see the new 07 ES today - too small to be comfortable though. So I asked about the 07 LS460 and they knew nothing. BUT - they did tell me the existing LS430 V8 engine CAN NOT burn gas with 10% ethonal in it !!!!! AND the 430 car had the 18" wheels on it that have short life time tires according to the literature they hand out. Furthermore, the new LS 460 is supposed to come only with the 18" tires that wear out in 15,000 miles or less. So why the heck would anyone want to buy one of these cars? I guess the tire wear is not a matter to worry about since you won't be able to drive with the 10% gasohol anyway! Interestingly, the 07 ES V6 engine will burn 10% gasahol.
