  • World's first 8-speed automatic transmission!

    And it's in the new Lexus LS460.

    Well, here it is, boys and girls. Autoblogger Chris attended the intro for Lexus new flagship. The fourth generation (has it been that long?) for the LS w


    After looking at everything this car has to offer, it's $60,000-$72,000 price range seems pretty cheap. I'm dying to hear what the 19-speaker 450watt surround sound system sounds like! You also get a 30GB hard drive to hold songs, parking assist, a smart card to open the doors/start the car, and a rear seat DVD player with a 9" screen that folds out of the roof! This is one sweet ride!

    thats cool! 8 speed and does 0-60 in 5.5secs. With that 8speed you prob never feel the car shift lol. And with all those gears mid and high end must be crazy on it!

              The new Lexus LS460 is damn incredible for that price. It's got to be one of the best automobile on the planet.
              The new Mercedes S-class has a 7-speed auto so Lexus has to go one up on that with an 8-speed.

              Well, at least a new 6-speed will be coming to the G6. The current 4-speed we have now is just pathetic when everybody else already has a 5-speed.
