If you haven't already, go and try it. Shut the door so it only catches the first latch and then watch. Kept me entertained for a good 15 minutes at a Lexus dealer one day.
Keeps our kids entertained as well Even the bootlid will close for you too. It is a bit annoying though when they jump in the other one, (LS400) and have to shut the door twice They forget which car it is

As regards buying used, this example was less than a new Falcon to buy, with 130K and 1 owner it is virtually unmarked inside and out, and LOST $145K in value since 2002

Very happy so far, just returned 10.7l/100km on a trip from Hobart to St Helens on the east coast, about 450km round trip. Very hilly and twisty road too.
