Sad, nobody wants sedans anymore. Lexus was built off the LS.

Sad day indeed.  A vehicle that changed the market for the better.  What the Acura NSX did to "super cars" the LS did for luxury barges.

I'm raising a glass...

But to me, the LS died in '17 with the end of the V8.

I feel that's a fair take, I never really warmed up to the generation after that.
