Lexus Ls is the …
Lexus Ls is the Best, Luxury, Most Reliable, and High tech vehicle in the world. Go to BMW, Mercedez, Audi, and other non Japanese Luxury cars. The reason Japanese Luxury cars are awesome because u dont have to worry about the car for getting repair most of the time. Especially Mercedes who is known to have a lot of problems in the car itself. I really regret it on buying that fking mercedes who tooks a lot of money from me, cuz of the repairments.

Exactly, at this …
Exactly, at this price, people can afford to buy what they want for their own personal tastes and needs, not what people hear from others. If you want drivers appeal, it’s probably a BMW, if you want an instantly recognisable sign of wealth and a reputation + heritage, it will be the Mercedes S-Class, if you prefer incognito or a sportier set-up, it’s the A8, if you prefer the newbie, maybe the VW Phaeton. It’s about brand loyalty too. Lexus LS is a great sweet car, they got it right this time.

I’d probably take this over an A8L W12, def over a 760iL, but not the sweet S600.
Love this car!

And seriously, if I …
And seriously, if I were given a choice of all 4, I’d take the LS. The drive is number but I wouldn’t be using a car like this around a track anyway. As long as I can get from point A to point B comfortably and use it for highway cruises/roadtrips comfortably, I’d be happy as that is exactly what I’d use such a car for.

Um I don’t know why …
Um I don’t know why people bother to argue which is better. If you’re going to buy one, you’d buy the one you want. That’s all that matters. The A8’s, LS, S class and 7 series all target the same general group of people but are individually different in some manners so that it can reach their specific target audience within that group of buyers. It’s not like Lexus is incapable of making a sportier version, they’re just not because Lexus buyers prefer luxury.

There are many bias critiques against japanese luxury cars. All i know is the truth, that Lexus makes the best luxury cars and costs 10k less than its competing class. Technology, reliability, luxury, and performance is second to none. Lexus is beating Mercedes & BMW in many aspects and i dont think Americans like it very much. Heritage means nothing today when you build cars with just a name. You can waste your money on cars that have name but no game. Lexus is a smart buyers car.

Maybe the name ” …
Maybe the name “Lexus” was a name chosen relatively overvight; but the technological innovations of what constitute the Lexus today was not an “overnight” one as Toyota has existed for a long time now. Truly, when compared with North American (and African) brands, the European brands are of lower specification. All the xteristics you mentioned (except classic) are typical of Lexus.

Tanx for the reply, but permit me to say that anyone prefering “prestige” to “value” has the mental habit of making a mountain out of a mole hill (protypic of British mentality especially).

you sound like a guy that has never seen an LS600hl up close. I’ve worked on both. The LS600hl is best.

You drove the 745i and MB S class and were not impressed? Yet the hideously bland LS with its busy and ugly interior did?
September 27th, 2008 at 11:35 pm
Um, Lexus is the …
Um, Lexus is the brand here with ZERO HERITAGE that started out as gussied up Toyotas. Please don’t call the European brands “shallow”. They have everything a luxury brand needs: history, heritage, motorsport, innovation, global appeal, classic cars and god knows what else. Lexus has none of that. People who go for Lexus are into value, not prestige.

My friend’s S-class Mercedes is always breaking down. Very unreliable and eats a lot of gas. His Lexus LS-460 on the other hand is wonderful and it don’t break.

Second only to the S-class unfortunately..
