The 2013 Lexus LS 460 F-Sport

What you should know: 
The 2013 Lexus LS 460 features a design that is proudly Japanese and notably its own. The L-Finesse design language that has slowly been filtering down from the automaker's concept cars and into production models is in full effect here. The sheet metal seemingly peeling back from the gaping
spindle grille has become the automaker's trademark in a manner that Lexus tells us should imply motion, speed, and strength.

For as in-your-face as the spindle grille and LED headlamps with their L-shaped accent/daytime running lamps are, the rest of the LS' design is remarkably subdued. The vehicle features a flowing roofline and a wide stance that gives the large sedan a hunkered-down look that, particularly in photos, hides some of the vehicle's mass.
What it offers: 
The 2013 Lexus LS 460 F-Sport's performance upgrades don't transform it into a sports car, but adds a sporty edge to the luxury sedan's already good cabin and comfort tech offerings.
The advantage: 
The Lexus LS 460 comes with a high level of standard cabin tech, which is augmented by the F-Sport package's driver aid, premium audio, and performance tech upgrades.
The unfavorable: 
The Remote Touch controller and the split-screen interface don't seem to work well together. Even in its Sport+ mode, the LS largely isolated the driver from the road and vehicle feedback.
The price:
$71,990.00
