lexus is a well made car. why. because toyota is a well made car. but lets get one thing straight. the only reason way lexus can sell cars is through there intensive and annoying advertising and their "claims" to so many innovations. how often do you ever see an S class advertisement on tv let alone advertising all of its gadgets. the S-class advertises itself. period. i will admit that the LS is a more reliable car. doesnt mean its better. the S-class is a rich mans car that keeps the car for 4 years at most. say all the bad things you want about the S..the bottom line is that the S-class is the best selling premium sedan ever made even though its the highest priced among the rest. the facts speak for itself. it is an engineering masterpeice and innovation leader. any car magazine journalist would agree.
every design aspect that Lexus has created was a result of mercedes benz. there is one thing that Lexus will never be able to engineer. Prestige, History, Class. When is the last time you saw the ambassador or prince of a country in a Lexus. it will never happen. Even the richest in Japan drive Benzs.
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. why do Lexus commercials have to poke fun at English and the German Engineers? why dont they have Japanese Engineers in their commercials. ashamed? imagine if Mercedes stooped to their cheesy level and made stupid commercials making fun of Japanese engineers. "ooo. i rike to copy mercedes and bmw. it rooks so nice. i ruv to copy german ruxury"
i'd like to see Lexus even attempt to sell a $500k car. SLR wannabe. Shit 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.
how ironic. the name Lexus not only has no history or meaning, but the japanese cant even pronounce it. Rexus? i dont own a mercedes. i love japanese cars. i'll be happy with toyota, honda and a chevy truck for the rest of my life. but i AM a car enthusiast. Love Infiniti. Hate Lexus. Lexus wouldnt be where they are if it werent for Mercedes. now they're trying to take on BMW.. are u kidding me? that will be the day. the new LS says 7 series all over it. Lexoyota. What a joke. Celebrities, Athletes, Prime Ministers, and the richest of the rich. Mercedes will always lead the way. And when the Covertable S-class comes in 08,..its all over.

Here's the bottom line of Mercedes-Benz. While most kids are priveleged to have a Mercedes, they are usually the big POS's that they can find on a used car dealership for under $10k. You can't deny that Lexus has one of the lowest depreciation rates, even for models that were made in the late '90s. Also, there's no contest in technology. Lexus just came out with their new flagship which boasts the ability to park itself, how can you even compete with that? They are simply elite, and any one who drives a Mercedes is so '80s and trying way to hard to act rich. Basically, quit trying to act like your rich and work at a sweat shop so you can obtain a car that actually has value even through re-sale such as Lexus. You can't deny fact, bitches. And another thing, don't think that Mercedes mean you're rich because i'm pretty sure most of the bullshit M-B's that teens are pushing are the C-class and those are soooo poor you might as well just get a Toyota for that same price. Lastly, Nagasaki premium stereos are WAAAAAY elite to whatever trashy Mercedes push. The proof is in the defined bass.
Poser Loser: "Hey look I just got a Mercedes-Benz, i'm soooo rich."
Actual Rich Heritage: "Wow, cool, i guess. How Much did you pay for it?"
Poser Loser: "Well... $10k but LOOK a have a car phone that doesn't even work i'm sooooo cool!"
Actual Rich Heritage: "Ok well i'm going to get my Lexus Rx330 and use the integrated voice-activated technology."

A person who's usually smart as hell but refuses to hide it by acting idiotic. They use their stupidity to mask their shyness of showing any bit of intelligence.
Hey have you seen Chris's grades? He's like a Lexus!
I wouldn't have guessed, he seemed pretty retarded

Lexus is a luxury automobile maker. They make high quality cars equal to that of a BMW or Mercedes-Benz. Have many models ranging from 31,000 to 66,000$, meaning you have to have money to drive one.
My Lexus SC430 could beat the shit out of that BMW!!!

A reverse engineered Mercedes-Benz ( by Toyota's own admission). Consistently emulate German styling cues, German safety, powertrain and convenience technology. ESP, ABS, airbags, direct injection, adaptive Xenon (xenon itself), air suspension, chassis control - all products of Germany, all emulated years later in Lexus products. Driving dynamics are relatively poor by European standards. The Lexus brand also has little to no equity compared to established Germans which have been making history for generations.
Lexus's are a smashing hit in the US, but not in Europe where they are perceived as gimmicky cars with no status, no innovation, no real chassis/driving engineering. Sales have suffered as a result
At the end of the day, you pay for the great reliability in the complete absence of any driving pleasure, innovations, style, or tier one brand status. Lexus has no premium super car (audi a8), and no motor sport involvement, no performance spec across the lineup (mb amg, bmw M, audi rs).

Correction: Lexus's are one of the worst quality car built.
German and Italian cars are the BEST QUALITY !!! they own everyone.
A Lexus is a pour man's Mercedes-Benz, Lexus is made by Toyota.
In Japan the same "Lexus" that people drive in the United states is called a Toyota there is no difference in the cars just that Toyota made up the Lexus name for America because Toyotas are know for being cheap and low quality.
So remember when you drive your Lexus and think your driving a classy expensive car your really driving a over priced Toyota with an "L" (Lexus) emblem on it.
Lexus basically copies everybody else like most Japanese car companies, everything Lexus advertises as a new feature on their cars has already been done by German car companies years ago, Lexus just copies their ideas puts them on their cars and advertises trying to make it look like their the only ones that have it and they try to make it look like they invented the feature/option.
I find Mercedes to be one of the best overall cars as well as one of the classiest because they are the oldest still-existing car company, they have been around for over 100 years. I have owned many and loved them all, they are all very high quality even with the low cost cars, from the fist Mercedes ever built to the newest they are all very, very high quality beautiful cars.
As with many other German and Italian cars.
Mercedes-Benz was behind many of the Innovations that make cars as great as they are today
German and Italian cars own!!! They are the Definition of quality.
Japanese and American cars suck.

Things like "air filtering" that Lexus just started using in their cars Mercedes-Benz and others had years before them.
Your Lexus is a Toyota, sorry.
