As expected, Lexus has seriously got to work on that issue. While Autobild found the LS has a number of weakness', they also said it had a number of good points. However, I just don't understand this lack "luggage space" which nearly every new Lexus model is suffering from.

Thanks for the test Wimmer.
Although I say that Lexus deserves a soft-biased suspension, I do see the merits of striking a balance between sportiness and comfort which the S-Class has perfected. Benz certainly deserves a lot of praise there.

I'm perturbed about the luggage space too Bruce... But what I'm more curious about is the load capacity.
