BERNARD S., FL (2007 Lexus LS)"It accelerates to 0 mph in about 5 sec which is quicker than the Mercedes E320 that I owned before it. On the other hand, the Mercedes handled better than my Lexus LS. Although the Lexus LS handles well enough."

R B., TN (2007 Lexus LS)"Even though its a big car this car accelerates quite quickly and is a pleasure to drive on long trips."
Curt C., NY (2007 Lexus LS)"The acceleration is very good. The handling is satisfactory, but I don't think it is as good as Mercedes, BMW, Etc. By the way, I detest the LS500--small, cramped and extremely uncomfortable."

Anonymous, NY (2007 Lexus LS)"This car drives like a dream, powerful acceleration, responsive handling,, and very quiet. I was in an bad accident in my old 1998 LS 400 and came out with only scratches. I feel very safe in this car. The only drawback is the rear wheel drive and the snow in Chicago."
Joan O., IL (2007 Lexus LS)"The 375 HP V8 provides excellent effortless acceleration for passing other vehicles"
Charles B., PE (2007 Lexus LS)
"With a 382 horsepower V8, an 8 speed automatic and rear wheel drive - this is an amazing road car. Passing at 60, 80 or a 100 is effortless. Plus - it gets 27+ MPG cruising at 80. It's quiet, most comfortable, ice-cold AC and the live traffic navigation is surprisingly accurate. It's also been maintenance free."
