And an 8 speed Auto, and a camera which alerts you if your eyes stray from the road for too long.
VERY clever car.
The LS600h should be impressive too.

I don't see the auto park that cool...it takes more time to program it to park it yourself

It's a worlds first on a production car, like the things in the S-Class, they improve the cars we'll drive in the future.
EVERYTHING we take for granted these days was originally debuted in the S-Class.

I think the Lexus system would be better if the car were not full of stupid Americans.

Maybach obviously.
The parking thing looks pretty snazzy on the Lexus I must say - give me an Alpina B7 or Brabus S-class anyday.
