Decent acceleration and handling, backseats were nice and comfortable, too expensive for what you get.
Handling Ranked 2008 Lexus LS 460 RWD better.
"The LS in my opinion had much better steering. The Maybach drove like a big limo while the LS drove like a refined luxury car. The most smooth steering Ive ever experienced."
Looks/Style Ranked 2008 Lexus LS 460 RWD better.
"The LS doesnt ask for attention therefore you wont be looked at by others as a rich person who feels superior to them. The LS is stealth wealth at its finest."
Front Seats Ranked 2008 Lexus LS 460 RWD better.
"Heated and cooled seats with 10 way. Brake hold function."
Back Seats Ranked 2008 Lexus LS 460 RWD better.
"The back seats were equally as comparable, cabin was just as quiet. You get heated and cooled seat controls and optional entertainment package is the same."
Cargo Capacity Ranked 2008 Lexus LS 460 RWD better.
"Much larger trunk space and passthrough to car."
Family Car Ranked 2008 Lexus LS 460 RWD better.
"The LS is a better choice for families because of affordability, and higher trunk space."
Value Ranked 2008 Lexus LS 460 RWD better.
"The LS costs significantly less than the Maybach. 180,000 less."
Would Buy Ranked 2008 Lexus LS 460 RWD better.
"The 2008 LS is an amazing value for sub 15k. The 2018 Maybach has the same features and costs 200k. The LS will last forever and youll only have to do general maintenance. Plus over time you wont lose money. The Maybach will live in the maintenance bay and lose value significantly."
