That may be true, but that is comparing apples to raspberries. I will tell you that as a consumer, I would not trade my 2006 550i for any 2010 Lexus. Additionally, while I see dozens (or many) 2004 M-B S, E, SL, etc on the road that still look good (or at least notice them), I rarely (if ever) notice any 2004 Lexus LS460s on the road. OTOH, people who own them always rate them highly. (Personally, I think they are just the people who refuse to buy German, because of their past). Also, I still see many Landcruisers on the road (but who cares if they show rust, or look beat up). All the reviews call them quality cars, so I am not trying to bash them, but I would consider 5 $100k cars, before considering a LC 500h

I'm on the other side of that one. I'd take a Lexus every time over a German car. They just don't break. "Fancy Toyota" is totally fine by me.
This is not really the point of this thread though. I'll fully agree that Lexus doesn't belong in a car porn thread... Stuff like a Jaguar E type is what this is all about.

Did you BMW-philes see this piece on Jalopnik about the BMW 1600? I had never heard of this car before. Beautiful lines.

Yeah, that's pretty. Looks like a 911 and a BMW had a lovechild and didn't tell anyone about it.

The first Lexus was competing with some of the best cars ever built. 1990's Mercedes Benz W140 and W124. The interior fit and finish on those Mercedes still holds up today. The Lexus was like half the cost and forced Mercedes to compromise. The W220 (2004) s-class is a nice car but not at the build quality of the previous W140.

And now the LS isn't even a competitor in the market.
Just a used 911.
