We proudly present the 2008 Lexus LS 600h L Launch Edition, arriving in mid-2007. It features the world’s first full-hybrid V8 powertrain, is equipped with all-wheel drive and is based on the long-wheelbase Lexus LS, making the ride exemplary.
As for the amenities, they have to be seen to be believed. The lustrous paint is an exclusive Truffle Mica, the interior features sumptuous Alabaster leather-trimmed seats, and each vehicle will be numbered with commemorative Launch Edition badging. This rare luxury sedan even comes with a set of custom-made Italian leather luggage.
While all of the Lexus LS 600h L Launch Edition vehicles are special, the very first one off the line has a rare distinction. That’s because it was donated to raise funds for The Road To A Cure medical research foundation, and offered up on November 16, 2006. Lexus is proud to partner with Cedars-Sinai Medical Center to raise money and awareness for the fight against cancer.

Winner of First LS 600h L Hybrid to Be Announced
TORRANCE, Calif., (October 26, 2006) – Lexus and Cedars-Sinai Medical Center will partner once again this year to raise funds for medical research. A fundraising gala, The Road To A Cure, will take place Thursday, November 16 at the Beverly Hilton Hotel to benefit The Board of Governors Center for Cancer Research at the Samuel Oschin Comprehensive Cancer Institute in Los Angeles.
Lexus, in its second consecutive year of participation, has donated the first of only 100 special 2008 Lexus LS 600h L vehicles, which will go on sale in mid-2007. The first 100 LS 600h L vehicles will offer unique traits such as Truffle Mica exterior paint coupled with Alabaster leather-trimmed interior, special alloy wheels, a commemorative interior badge, and a custom-made Italian luggage set. The donated LS luxury hybrid sedan, which features the world’s first full-hybrid V8 powertrain, will be presented by Cedars-Sinai in an opportunity drawing with all proceeds going to benefit the center's medical research.
“With cancer affecting the lives of millions of patients and their families, Lexus is proud to support Cedars-Sinai’s ongoing efforts to raise funds and awareness in the field of cancer treatments, and to extend its state-of-the-art care and treatment to thousands of patients each year,” said Bob Carter, Lexus Division group vice president and general manager.
Cedars-Sinai’s Board of Governors and Lexus anticipate that this year’s gala event, opportunity drawing and silent auction, with Wayne Brady serving as Master of Ceremonies, will generate significant funds to contribute to the progress already made in the field of cancer research and clinical trials. With nearly $100 million in donated medical treatment per year, Cedars-Sinai’s dedication to this cause is unparalleled.
