Luxury car manufacturer under Toyota. It is true that Lexus's are really Toyota's in Japan, but that doesn't mean they are cheap. In Germany and most of Europe, Mercedes's are cheap as well, just like some of the Toyota's in America you guys have been referring to.

One of the best quality cars ever built, engine will last you forever, as it was rated to be the most reliable auto maker.

The name "Lexus" is derived from Toyota's LE(luxury edition cars), US(United States), and X which is taken from the word luxury, with the overall meaning to say "Luxury Edition for the United States. Put the acronyms together and you get "Lexus."

Luxury Cars that a lot of rappers like Biggie Smalls rap about

an engine that'll never die

great looks

and just plain awesome-ness

"the only major thing that Lexus has invented is the LS that virtually parks itself. Big deal. the S-class virtually drives itself. it will accelerate and come to a complete stop by itself. imagine driving in traffic and all you have to do is steer. beat that. Why does no one know about this, because Mercedes doesnt have to make cheesy commercials to show off their technology.'

You are misinformed. The LS ALSO virtually drives itself, using Dynamic Radar Cruise...it will acclerate and stop all by itself. And it has INNOVATIONS which the Germans can only dream of--it reads the lines on the road, and has pedestrian and object detection capabilities for front and rear, plus night vision. The Benz has night vision, but none of the other features!

Before you go off on your so-called enthusiast snobbery take a look at the growing numbers of politicians, CEOS, athletes, celebs, and yes even heads of state that are driving Lexus cars. Sure Mercedes is a lot older and more geriatric, but history will only take you so far. There's room for others.

"i'd like to see them sell a $190k SL65 wannable. no one would buy it. why? who the hell is gonna spend that much money on a japanese car that has no history, no prestige."

Hah, nice try. There are already 1,850 preorders for the $120K LS 600h L, and the $150,000-ish LF-A is coming out next year. It also has a waiting list.

Deny all you want, till the facts hit you in the face.

Luxury car manufacturer under the huge umbrella of Toyota. Lexus's are some of the best quality cars ever built, the engine will last you forever, as it was rated to be the most reliable auto maker.

It is true that Lexus vehicles are really Toyotas in Japan, but that doesn't mean they are cheap. In Germany and most of Europe, Mercedes's are cheap as well, just like some of the Toyotas and Lexus's in America you guys have been referring as "cheap."

Toyota's faux-luxury division; the cars are all either rebadged Camrys, Cressidas, Crowns or Land Crusiers. CR and other racist idiots call them luxury cars, but compared to a 760i, it becomes clear what they realy are

lexus is a japanese luxury brand that spawns from toyota. their main market base is the US, and they are having trouble selling in europe and asia. mercedes-benz, bmw and audi lead worldwide.

most of the people who are saying that lexus is better than mercedes (LS460 vs. S550) are people who can't actually afford a mercedes and are therefore jealous. the s-class is the pinnacle of performance, luxury and style, and the lexus LS460 can't touch it. btw, for the person who said that the LS600hL has two thousand pre-orders: many of those pre-orders had no idea of the car's performance, and have canceled their orders because they are disappointed with the not-so-great mileage.

LXU55, owned by some fly young Lexus driver in Peregian Beach, Queensland, Australia.

All cars strive to be as good as LXU55.
