I have had the fortune and pleasure (and displeasure sadly) of driving some very rare cars....
1964 Ford Mustang with the 351 Windsor engine - lots of power, not much on control, somewhat fun but a hassle. I personally would not own one. I drove the car for 1 week and put a few hundred miles on it, so this is where my impression came from.
1969 Corvette Stingray - talk about raw power, this car is pretty much sex & hell on wheels, it's an infernal deathtrap in a collision but the lines are just gorgeous and the power is fantastic. The only downside I have seen from the car was the fact parts just kept breaking, and apparently it was a common issue for the older Stingray's. I drove this car for 5 days and put about 100 miles on it, I would take the Stingray over the 64 Mustang easily, but due to the amount of maintenance this car requires I would not own one if I could only own 1 car.
1981 BMW M1 Procar - *DISCLAIMER* I DID NOT DRIVE THIS CAR I WAS A PASSENGER. This car is an interesting one, definitely one for a show room, its ride is MEH to be honest, its power is decent, but its oddity and rarity makes it collectable. Parts are virtually non-existent and have to be fabricated according to the owner, I would not own one due to the downsides listed above.
1993 Pontiac Sunbird - This was MY first owned car, I was 16 and it was 2007, no power locks or windows, no cruise control, but it did have A/C, and as a birthday gift my father had a CD player installed. The car was somewhat reliable at 40K miles, but it had all of about 100 horsepower and looked ugly as sin, but it was my car. That car got wrecked (my fault) as I entered traffic on someone else waving me in across a lane, it was totaled. I put about 30K miles on the car, it was rather uninspiring, but I liked it as it was my first car and it was teenage freedom, looking back I would not own one again.
1995 Toyota Camry - This was my replacement car to my first one, and a MAJOR upgrade in every way, I LOVED this car. I would gladly own another Camry if presented with one that meets my requirements, absolutely fantastic cars. This car had the transmission go at 130K miles, my father then offered to either fix it or go with a newer car that he purchased from an estate sale, I took the newer car and regretted it, I put 60K miles on this car, what an excellent budget car it was.
2002 Dodge Stratus SE (2.7L V6) - This ****ing car.... GOD DO I HATE THIS ****ING CAR. This car represents the failure of the US Automotive industry, STAY THE **** AWAY FROM THIS CAR AND THAT TERRIBLE 2.7L V6 engine. Nothing but problem after problem after problem, after problem. It fell apart like cheap dry piece of plastic. The engine power was quite good, it will get up and move when you tell it to, but it will also fall apart on you and the sludge problems despite using Valvoline Full Synthetic and a full synthetic filter were still present, its rightfully earned the name "sludge monster engine". I drove this POS car for 50K miles, and I am glad to be rid of it.
2002 Pontiac Firebird WS6 SLP - A friend let me drive this car for a short bit with him in the passenger seat. This car when it's working (he complained about replacing parts on a constant basis) is an absolute BEAST. About as much if not more felt power than the 69 Stingray, this car is just fun to drive, and it looks like it's going on a murderous rampage, and that SLP exhaust sound was just pure music. This car sold me on Firebirds as my favorite domestic (I am from the USA) car, repair costs aside, if I could own an SLP Firebird or even better and SLP Firehawk I would. I drove the car for 30 miles from the country to the city with highway driving in between.
2008 Infiniti G37 - I had a few opportunities to drive this car, it's sporty but cramped (I think the 02 Firebird felt more spacious than the G37), the interior was nice, but it handled like it wanted to drive the car for you and fought over your control at any chance it got. I was not impressed with this car at all, and neither was the owner (a friend of my father), he finished his lease and sold the car back to the dealer, ended up with a new 2017 Toyota Camry XSE V6 with the Camry Premier Silver Package and Technology Package (I have yet to drive it or ride in it). He absolutely loves the car and says it's definitely an upgrade from his Infiniti G37.
2010 Audi A4 2.0T - This was my father's car for a year (another estate buyout), I liked the performance, and the ride was nice, but my father hated it, and it has some reliability issues and the cost to fix is just nuts. I would not want to own one due to the repair costs alone; I drove this car for about 500 miles.
2014 Mercedes Benz C300 - This is my father's current sedan, and its ride and power are fantastic, pure quality. However there are plenty of things I do not like about the car. At only 42,500 miles it has loose parts in the car that creak and rattle, and with the interior being so quiet on the road it can get annoying quickly. The car's acceleration from 0-60 is quite good for a heavy sedan, and it gets to 80 MPH well, but hitting that 100 MPH mark it starts to struggle and for one lane passing where it needs to be done quickly as to lessen the chances of a head on collision on back roads, it left me unimpressed. The sound system is decent, A/C controls are fantastic if not uninspired, and the car feels cramped for being a large sedan, seriously I think my Camry had more interior room. Handling in the car is tight, it's fairly fun to drive but in the end, when the maintenance/repair bills come in I would not own one, I have seen the bills, NOPE. I have currently driven 1,200 miles in this car, it's a good car but ultimately left me mildly impressed, I do like it more than the Audi though.
My current car (upgraded from the 02 Dodge POS) - 1992 Lexus LS400 with 87,400 miles... yeah I said it, a 10 year older car than my 02 Dodge Stratus and it's clearly an upgrade. This car's engineering borders on the obsessive. It's a quiet on the highway as my fathers 2014 Mercedes, and when Overdrive is off and ECT is on PWR mode, that 4.0L V8 will put you into that seat, I was/am impressed. The car is currently having electrical issues (minor) and I am having it fixed, but its a 25 year old car, and it still drives better than 85% of most modern cars. I am having the Nakamichi sound system ripped out (minus the stock 220W AMP and 8 inch sub (yes it came with that STOCK in 92), and am replacing it with JBL GTO Component and Coaxial speakers with a Kenwood 900W 4 channel AMP, and a Kenwood 6.9 inch touchscreen multimedia display with HD radio, XM, Qualcomm Bluetooth, Garmin Navigation, HD Audio processing, Android Auto, and Pandora link. I have replaced the stock lights with all Philips Crystal Vision Ultra bulbs for whiter & brighter lights like most modern luxury sedans have. I have plans for aftermarket sport type sway bars (front & rear) as well as front & rear strut tower braces to help the car handle better in turns (I am NOT turning this into a "performance sedan"), I just want it to handle corners better than a barge would. As I said the car handles like a barge, it's clearly not designed for high speed cornering, but more for ride comfort across multiple surface types. It's probably one of the smoothest cars I have ever driven, and is not even in the same Universe as my 02 POS Dodge. I plan on keeping this car until around 180K - 200K miles or 6-8 years, and this car's reputation precedes it well, I do not know of any other car that is 25 years old that outclasses most modern cars on the road today, do you?
Would I own another Lexus over a BMW, Mercedes Benz, Audi, or Infiniti?
ABSOLUTELY
Toyota owner for 10 years. Just brought my first Lexus tonight. love it.
MarieAmicalola Good for you I too just bought my first Lexus several months ago and am extremely happy with it. Knowing what I know now, I would have bought a Lexus long ago.
Congratulations
Congratulations
what kind did u get? 10 months late but i wanna know
No matter how good, I DO NOT BUY CARS with the FUEL FILLER ON THE LEFT ! There are a few Japanese cars with the fuel filler on the RIGHT, those are built here in US, exception is HONDA, still left
For this reason NO FORD 150, Expedition, or FUSION, There IS A RATIONAL reason Japanese cars have them on the LEFT, they DO DRIVE on the LEF
Most reliable luxury brand ever! Never saw one at the side of a highway
Tj Nyce the pursuit of perfection ;)

Sebastian Couto don't be delusional. check your sources.
Dude my 2002 Lexus LS has 240k and still going with a very low maintenance bill...now Find a 2002 S-class Merc or even an E- Class that's even close to that comparison in 2017!
lol I seen a couple of Mercedes on the side of the road with the hood up. My old friend owns 2 and says they are a big headache, he is only addicted to the logo. You can buy a 2010 Sclass s65 for 10k, from a previous price of 200k.. Are you kidding me? Don't get me wrong, the AMG series is to die for but I would get a lexus GS F over a AMG any day. Yes the s63 and even the standard S class is the best looking, smooth, and technologically advanced car out probably with the whole digital dash and neon interior lights but for longevity, I will still get a Lexus. Own Maybe I would lease a S class but with its stupid depreciation I would never buy one out right.
Lexus outsold BMW in the US back in 2016, and has been ranked most dependable by JD Power for 7 straight years.
Sean Mangubat Lexus is great, numbers don't lie
@OWEN FLORENCE Car of the year doesn’t mean shit I mean for Christ sake the alpha Romeo guila won the other year lol.
When you drive lexus your brain and body relaxes
👍👍👍
It’s actually true. I am much more relaxed while driving, making that worth it by itself.
Just bought an ES a few weeks ago. I actually look forward to my hour-long commute now.
It’s a worry free car and it’s more comfortable then my Mercedes was love my Lexus
@@jimbarino2 same whit my 1999 es 300🙏
Have lived with 3 different lexuses for 11 years ❤️nothing to complain about .. super reliable..luxurious..and well built .. magnificent
I love Lexus. They're definitely my family's favorite. My first car was an RX and after I drove that for several years I ended up getting another. 10/10 would recommend.
My car is also RX300-✌
You have to drive 1 to believe how good is Lexus*****
Alex Yau maybe she’s a Lexus owner
Have been a Lexus owner for the last 6 years, I had nothing to complain and will continue to be a loyal customer. Lexus does not offer much choice in options compare to its European competitions down here in Australia, they just put them in to 3 different packages "luxury"(standard), "F-Sport" or "Sport Luxury". Some ppl hate it, I love it. Instead of trying to figure out what to choose and what is worth to have, Lexus just makes it easier for car owners when it comes to pick options. I drive a 2016 RX350 F-Sport and it turns head everyday.
Toyota give you guys some cool choices though, you remember the TRD Aurion 3500SL ? We didn't get that here in the States :-(
HalfBreedMix Bro actually ITS really rare to see a trd Aurion it's such a cool car here in Australia
HalfBreedMix i had the aurion sportivo but i crashed it and i miss it alot but now i got a lexus is250 with bbs Lm but its boring compared to aurion , im debating whether to trade in for a trd aurion after i saw your comment because you reminded me of them. They are so rare i forgot it existed, i use to gawk over them when i saw them back years ago
i would have gotten a gs 350 f sport imo
Jeff C if i was to pick gs series i would love to get a gs 300 / aristo 2001 the old ones with the 2jz ge so then if anything i can engine swap it to a 2jz gte. Im really getting sick of v6
Lexus may not have the luxury reputation as Mercedes, but just because I can afford a Mercedes doesn't mean I want to deal with the constant reliability headaches that comes with these German cars. Even if "Oh but you have the money to own it, so you have the money to maintain it." It's not the point! Even if the vehicle is under warranty I have to constantly take time out of my life to take the bastard car to the shop because the stupid car constantly has a problem. That in itself is an extreme annoyance. And THAT is why you see people like celebrities or even doctors and lawyers, etc., with Lexus. Some people want a badge, but other people want a no nonsense car.
Juan Zingarello there doctors amd lawyers that still use Mercedes Benz today. i have a lawyer friend who drives a Mercedes Benz SUV and still has to this day.
Its all about the badge and image. I knew a guy in college who had a BMW. He constantly complained and complained about how it was a money pit and how his radio stopped working, his powered seats stopped working and so on so forth. About a year later, he replaced it with a new BMW. So I said to him "dude. Didn't that car give you problems? Why did you buy another BMW if you complained so much about it?" And he just couldn't give me an answer. "Oh but maybe this new one won't give me so many problems." I just nodded and walked away. That is what I call buying a badge. Not a car.
Juan Zingarello so true
Juan Zingarello I
Juan Zingarello it doesnt go to the shop if you maintain it.
Lexus will outlast Bmws,Benz, Audi, porche German cars age like milk early experation date....Japanese cars age like fine wine gets better with age.
Junior Lexus ur addicted my friend.
Im with you on this my friend.
George David he meant in terms of reliability. I’ve rode on dozens of benzs since I was born, and they could hardly cope with the Indonesian climate and geographic condition. Porsche and Land Rover couldn’t even survive the country roads, but Lexus that car is one of the strongest out there.
@George David bet it is hardly ever daily driven lol
Probably not Porsche
I'd rather lexus than mercedes

Yeah same it’ll last a lot longer and the parts are cheaper.

Wade Higgins hahah ford
Fix or repair daily
should be fired
MEANWHILE. In general, there is currently a #Ford Crown Victoria that has over a Million Miles.
Best cars in the world. I don't care what the German badgewhores say. They breakdown all the time after a certain amount of use. They're lease machines. Lexus NEVER has those issues. Bulletproof vehicles!
As a german, I only drive lexus and got my mother a toyota. The garbage from our german brands is just a ripoff with engineering determined to make cars as cheaply as possible and maximize the profit margin.
@@drkastenbrot saludos from your friends U.S
As an asian, id say the euro and american cars are pos. Lol jk. I drive only acura and lexus now. But i love the ford f150 and dodge charger though. Badass truck and cool sport sedan.
True. Lexus is the best car.
@@drkastenbrot they don't make german cars like they used to back in the day
They always talk about German engineering but the fact remains that German cars fall apart quick with electrical problems...Bmw,Benz,AUDIS,PORCHES.
100% agree even my old BMW 1Serie (2004) im happy when i sold it.
I was always a BMW enthusiast. Once I test drove a Lexus RX, I became immediately hooked! I bought a new RX 450h two years ago. The smooth, quiet ride, awesome sound system, and amazing reliability record make me a Lexus owner for life.
We have a 2018 Toyota Sienna and it blows our old (but beautiful) E39 outta the water like now tomorrow.
@@alpaljl We have a 2013 Sienna, we bought new. It has 193k miles on it now. I had never bought new before. Was against, but we just bought a new Highlander for my wife. That is how good that Sienna was, just sold me on new is ok if it lasts forever. Looking to get me a used Lexus 350 (IS, ES or GS) for daily driving. Leaning IS because I want to be reliable and fun.
You guys missed one! LEXUS is an Acronym. Luxury EXport to the United States. Also, I drive a 1998 LS400 and I feel like a boss.
Kenji Almonté 99 LS for me
Yes @Kenji. Absolutely correct!
Toyota didn't think their brand would sell as a luxury brand in the US, hence the new brand name and specifically for the US market hence L EX US (Luxury EXport US). 👍🏻
I thought Alux would keep that as the last extra tit bit. Lol! I got the RX450h... my next is either the NX or the LF-1 (Limitless 2020), hopefully... 🤞🏻
No. At the beginning it was going to be named alexis but then they shortened the name to lexis but a software company was named that already and tried to sue.
Same. I love my LS400
How reliable is ls400?
Lexus only for me . Incredible quality and the realistic reliability of my wife's Rx,and my ls430 have been unbelievable. My car is 12yrs old and still has the power of a new car plus still rides ride like a new car.
That story about Ford Motor Co. CEO owning an LS is frankly amazing. Lol.
JDM boy I would fire the traitor 🤣man at least you could have been driving a LINCOLN 🤣
@@64arguz ive had 2 Lincolns.. gas guzzlers
Kept me at the pump nearly everyday
J J what does fuel economy have to do with reliability?
@@joskjj3625 if you are missing few brain cells then you get those out of the world opinion! And not for a second I believe any of this nonsense
@@Encircate what?
I hear overall, the Lexus dealerships are the best around as far as taking care of their customers.
thesemfnnutts true! They have great customer service, every time I call them to make an appointment the first thing they ask me is do I want a rental for a few hours or less to run my errands.. I’m usually in and out with my rental car in about 15 minutes!
I'd sign that
thesemfnnutts It’s true, we just bought another Lexus last month and they have the best customer service ever. We’ve been to many different car dealerships and Lexus is just top notch!
thesemfnnutts I know I’m late to this, but that is true! I went to a Lexus dealership recently and was treated very well! They took the time to walk the lot with me and discuss different kinds of deals and cars. I also went to Land Rover the same day and the customer service there was horrible. Customer service plays a huge part when it comes to purchasing a car.
Pretty well made cars from Lexus. I have had many German luxury cars and my wife used a Lexus as her daily vehicle. It has been quite reliable so far for last 12 yrs period. 🦅🦅🇺🇸
Frank Kwok How reliable were your German cars?
lexus is the best car you can get period
👍👍👍
@Yemi Of course. I dont have much experience with that brand thought.
Basically 15 things you didnt know about lexus LFA ...
11 is misleading. "Lexus sold its first car in Japan in 2005". Yes, all they did was changed the badge from Toyota to Lexus. All Lexus models were sold under Toyota brand before 2005.
Lexus LS = Toyota Celsior
Lexus GS = Toyota Aristo
Lexus IS = Toyota Altezza
They switched the name, not the car. They were redesigned after 2005 if that's what you meant.
Are you from the U.S.? I'm pretty sure the Lexus LS430 was exactly the same car as the Toyota Celsior in Japan. This car was redesigned in 2005 and became the LS460. Also, some brands like Acura and Infiniti don't exist in Japan. They are sold under Honda and Nissan brand, but are exactly the same cars.
Actually, there are Toyota models in Japan that still use Lexus parts. For example, the Toyota Majesta uses the LS460's engine. The Toyota Crown shares the layout with the newer GS. The Land Cruiser shares almost all of its parts with the LX.
I mentioned the LS and GS which still share parts with Toyota. I don't know what we are arguing here lol
Therefore 2005 "is" Lexus first time gaining independence in Japan from Toyota. That is how Lexus sold its first car in Japan in 2005. 11 isn't a wee bit misleading. You're just not thinking how words can be played out.
The sheer experience of driving a Lexus is second to none. I honestly look forward to the drive sometimes more than the destination, you feel like an absolute queen in it. No sound from the engine, beautiful leather interior, and a head turner for sure. I’ve ridden in my friends Mercedes a lot and it’s incomparable to a Lexus.
Pick me up pls
Lexus is refined luxury, beauty, reliability, and quality all combined in one. Truly one of a kind and it stands alone.
Once you feel Lexus quality, every car you get in is gonna feel cheap. So be aware, if you get a Lexus you’re not gonna wanna go back to an American haha!
@Yemi they are ok but all they're just luxury nissans. Toyota's have a crazy rep for always being reliable Nissan as of recent is falling behind in the reliability aspect
BMW and Mercades has better quality not reliability but better quality
@@abinsaji4449 they don’t have higher quality!. They are junk.
@@Odat im talking about Interior build quality they use better materials for their interiors
@@Odat also Mercedes and BMW can be reliable if you pick the right engine but because they're not as Simple as a Toyota they won't be as simple as to maintain. It all comes down to your maintenance.
After weeks of deliberation I have gone for the Lexus NX 300h over the Mercedes GLC. Collecting October 2020. Looks alone smashed it out of the ball park, plus the hybrid tech was another great reason to purchase. One happy UK customer indeed
Love Lexus. The elegant interior and dependability outperform any other luxury brand.
Luv LEXUS!!!!!

I would drive a lexus for the rest of my life
Bought my first Lexus 16 years ago (2003 GS 430). Still have it and drive it. Just bought a 2016 GS F). A true power horse. I’m a Lexus man til the day I die.
Stacey Taylor Sr. I recently just bought a new Lexus IS 200t f sport. First car that I’ve ever owned and bought with my name on it. It’s a beautiful car
Much better than German made.
idc what Paris Hilton drives
My thoughts exactly. 😃
Idc if it takes my whole life to save up for a Lexus LC 500 or is 250/350 but iwill have one I PROMISE!
Mary C it's really worth it
Cliff Gardner I have one in my 60years of dealing with lot of brands Lexus is awesome
lc 500 is my dream car too. it was and it still is for a couple of years now
Recently got my IS 300 and I have so much fun in it 😁 I hope you reach your goals soon ❤😊 It'll be worth it!
All I drive is Toyota or Lexus products
love Lexus!
I have a 2002 Lexus IS200, it has 240000km and never had any problems! That's why I love Lexus...
SamoJa same here... and of the line I can see most of the new turboed pieces of German shit at the traffic lights. Even fewer can keep up on the motorway... And so far I haven’t only seen a Bugatti on the hard shoulder flashing hazard lights... This thing is bulletproof... if I can’t kill it, virtually nothing can. Still get an odd compliment about its looks too... doesn’t look as dated as the BMW and Mercedes of same age, creature comfort is 2012 upper class vehicle, for less than 2k£... Makes me laugh at ppl driving brand new 15-18k£ Cora’s and Fiesta’s

same m8, mines gone 255 000km
used to have one aswell, never failed me! only thing i can complain about it really was the slight issue with rust protection but aside from that it was a great car. easy to fall asleep in the backseat aswell ^^
i had 2001 is300 with 380000km,i change it for 2014 is 250 bcos I need awd still own it till now.
My wife always wanted a Lexus RX. We got one at a great deal in 2008 and now we are on our second one. Other than oil and brakes, we only had one repair on the first one. The car is outstanding in many ways but I find one of the greatest options is it runs on 87 octane. No need for High Test! That is a great money saver in it self!
The Reliability of theses cars are so great makes me cry
When you want a luxury car but you want a japanese reliable.
#6 when even you as a CEO know the cars you make suck so bad you don't even own one so you drive a Lexus instead.
Woww
Which are?
@@BlessedVivi Ford.
Lexus is the best. I'm a old fan of Toyota for its reliability as my late father did. Them i bought a Lexus Is 250 and omg i couldn't believe i had that used car for 8 years and not a single time that car had any issues. I sold it and now im going to buy a Es 350h. Lexus is beauty with loyalty.
Fast, Luxury, Cool and Safety.
I want to ride Lexus cars.
Love Toyota, love Japan.
I've been a Lexus owner from 1999. All LS models. I've driven the others but, for a well built dependable car that is very comfortable to drive. there is nothing like it in the world. I just wish the budget permitted me to buy a new one but, I still passionately love my LS460L and desire nothing else for my day to day car.
LEXUS BEST 👌🏻❤️
family owns 3 lexsus, es350 es300 and nx200t f sport (mine :) ) . Reliability at its finest, the es350 2007 model still works till this day, nothing wrong and still proves to be a good ride, no leakage and low cost for maintenance. I personally would rate this brand 9/10, -1 for the lack of better engine for this brand.
The LS500H would be my go-to Lexus. Hands down one of the best looking cars inside and out. Lexus has no competition but people stuck in their cult followings lol. From the outside looking in, they've got incredible bang for the buck when pitted against the others. Infiniti and Acura need to catch up to their fellow Japanese giant
No.10. Lexus LFA uses single clutch 6 speed sequential instead of 8 speed.
Leonardo Andre Wijaya yeah, pretty sure the 8 speed was disigned and came with the lexus is-f
draft1983 the 8-Speed came first in the LS 460 in 2007
I was curious whether anyone else would notice that.
I wouldn't sell any other car! best ever made hands down!! there is such attention to detail put in these cars.... just cant say enough about them.
I have a Lexus ES 350 I love it! Nothing on the road comes close!
16 years of joy from my LX470! At 196,000 and going strong. ❤️
Next month I will have had my 1998 LS400 for 19 years. Everything works well and it's still a joy to drive. It replaced the most famous German brand which were exceptionally unreliable vehicles despite excellent maintenance. As yet I have found no compelling reasons to replace the Lexus. An acquaintance had a Bentley built for himself but it wound up spending more time in the repair shop than on the road. He replaced it with a Lexus and, like me, has never looked back.
I love Lexus, they are very comfortable and very high quality cars! My first car I got was a Lexus and my next one will be also and many more after that too.
I've got a 2012 ct200h f sport. It's my first lexus and love it to death. When I found out they stopped selling it because it was the most hated lexus with terrible sales it made me wonder how much better the other models were. I never understood brand loyalty until I drove a lexus.
Own an IS300 myself ❤️
2jz Gabe I own the GS300 (2001) With a 2JZ
I own a IS250... pretty cool car..

Ford CEO caught driving a black luxury Lexus LS. Price is the one that gives effect. I drove Lexus RX300 AIRS and it has 6 CD changer built in the head unit. The quality of the vehicle and the performance was nice. fuel consumption's quite frugal
wow..nice of you alux.com to put this..lexus was my favourite car brand...❤
rohit saju What is your favorite car brand now?
Iggi Valencia XD nice
Lexus makes great cars. I have a 2016 Lexus IS 300h. And when we bought it we got the best service we ever had. I have had Rover's and toyota's and mitsubishi's. But lexus is definitely the best one i have had. Brilliant cars:-)
Lexus is the best!
In my Opinion Lexus is the Best Luxury Car......It Classy especially in All BLACK with some Chrome Trimming & Dark Smoke Tint.
Love Lexus ... just made a purchase for a NX 200T F Sport very loaded as a start and saw the LC 500 ... wow. Love both. And then I now saw the LFA!! Oo la la!!
I bought a used Lexus RX 330 in 2005. Still drive it. As smooth as any car out there. No major issues
*What an extremely unpleasant voice-over. An English accent but with American pronunciation of words. Sedan? Coop? Plus the one you didn't answer which a lot of people are curious about, is where the name 'Lexus' came from in the first place? The reason the brand was first launched in the USA was because the bosses at Toyota wanted an upmarket brand specifically for the American market. In other words, a Luxury EXecutive car for the US market... L.E.X.U.S.*
Lexus isn’t an acronym. Toyota’s marketing team came up with a list a names and one, Alexis stuck out, they worked it down to Lexus. Only the Luxury EXport to US is was created by fans
@@BTCRAILFILMS Although I said Executive, and not Export, it's pretty irrelevant really. You shouldn't live your life, relying on Wikipedia as your font of all knowledge though. I was simply basing *my* information, on what I was told by my late father-in-law... who began working with Eiji Toyoda when he took over as head of Toyota in early 1967. But he was just the guy who thought up the Lexus project, so what would he know huh? PS - I've never been a fan of Lexus vehicles by the way. I'm English, and I've always preferred Jaguars, Aston Martins and Range Rovers!
Bought a lexus IS 250 as my first car 3 years ago and just purchased another IS 250 f sport... Lexus/Toyota for life!!!
sambroskie lou bro how do you like it so far? Is it comfy ok inside? Or is it small for you. I got altima 2012 so thinking to get is 250/350. Thanks
the Lexus Ls 430 is a masterpiece
For luxury cars lexus has the best trade off between price, style, performance & reliability
As a Toyota freak fan and Scion, Lexus IS one of the most luxurious cars and SUV in the production thanks to toyota. I want a used and gorgeous flagship, and that’s 97’ Lexus LS400 and unleash that flagship true potential. 😎
LEXUS is one of the great brands around the world. We trust and respect brand.
I just bought a Lexus IS 250! I love it😍
glowingmyway how is it so far?
I have altima 2012 now and looking at is 250/350 but kinda scared that’s tight inside? Thanks
I walked into the dealer and paid cash for brand new Toyota Sr5 pickup in 1981. I had owned a Chevy 5.7 diesel at the time, 100 percent junk! That little truck was solid, 100 percent reliable for over 150,000 miles. My neighbor ran across the street with his checkbook as I was taping a for sale sign on it after six years of hard duty. He used it in his business and passed it on to his grandson probably 15 years later. It used to bring a smile to my face when I'd see it around town years and years later. I think I owned four of them total the last was a Tacoma TRD. Never a glitch from any of them. A few Honda's, a Mitsubishi, a BMW a couple Ram trucks which I'm driving now. Need a heavy duty diesel at this point, wish Toyota made one. Anyway I have not a concern in the world about the six year old 56,000 mile Lexus RX350 awd we just bought for my wife. It's pristine with all service records and Lexus certified. Bumper to bumper unlimited miles two year warranty and service for the next two years. We love this car!
I am in love with the 2017 Lx570 and rx450h.
Was that you
I bought a 2016 lexus is 300. There styling backed with Toyota reliability is unbeatable. I appreciate Toyota standards
Lexus best car ❤❤❤ 👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻
Bought my first Lexus RX400h back in 2015 used had 85000 miles ,the SUV was absolutely gorgeous an still is today my wife uses it everyday an she loves it,as for me I bought another 2020 Lexus RX450H F Sport an I absolutely love my hybrid. Unless you know what your buying you will truly be happy ,Thank You Lexus for the Superb Quality an best Trusted Automobile.
Just got Gs350 love it.
Have a 2013 GS 350, bullet proof after 6 years.
Love me some Lexus.
I drive a Lexus CT200H and even though its kind of their base hybrid model, it is brilliant, the build quality and ride are both amazing and even though reviews state it as slow, I feel its got nice acceleration and a good amount of power even without sport mode on. The leather seats are silky soft and there is even leather around other parts of the cabin giving a luxury feel. I have literaly driven all the usual luxury brands and Lexus is now my choice, after 30 + years of driving and being in my late 40s now, I really do feel like I have found my brand. I will probably now drive Lexus way into my old age as long as they are still around, which i'm sure they will be.... oh and to top it all off, the Mark Levinson audio with like 12 + speakers is just brilliant, treat yourself, its well worth it ... Cheers, James from London England 😀
What a waste of 2/500 LFA's
hypno159753 it’s not a waste dude.
been driving Lexus for the past 10 years... IS, GS, GS F sport.... never gave me any problems... hasnt let me down once....
In case you didn't know, if the gas pedal gets stuck, keep calm and shift gear to Neutral.
Does that really work?
You'll probably blow your engine, but at least you would slow down.
And hit the button to turn off
Don't forget the brake pedal
Lexus is supposed to stir the soul and not much else. Lexus ad from 1989 “Experience Amazing”

a special request
facts about lexus LFA
I owned a 2004 LS 330, I thought when it reached 200,000 miles I should replace it. I bought a ford explorer, at 160,000 miles on the ford the engine blew up due to faulty water pump issues, the interior was not that good, the speakers inside had a whistle sound, all kinds of issues with the blue tooth and radio.I had another engine put in the explorer and even more problems popped up, I decided to sale it. I went back to driving the 04 Lexus I put another 60,000 miles on the Lexus and sold it to a friend who has a used car lot, he had it checked out and put it on his lot for sale, All I ever had done to that car was regular maintenance. I had such great service out of that car, I purchased the RX 350, love it
That dude is against harming animals but the LS has leather from animals that were probably harmed lolololol
Meth Jayasekera The LS600 only uses synthetic leather, no actual leather. It said it twice in the video...
UnitedRecording but just THAT car. All other 600h models are wrapped in leather from the dashboard to rear doors
Whoda Hellru I didn't realize that. I've only looked at the LS460 hl
Im on my 3rd lexus. All have been great and ive owned about 100 cars. Lexus are solid, smooth and reliable not to mention luxurious.
My favorite lexus is the 2jz powered lexus gs300
I’ve owned three Lexus: the Gs 400, ES 350, I now own the RX 350. The best cars to own hands down 👍🏽😍
Wasn't the first 8-speed put into the ISF and not the LFA?
yup. but yet it's called 10 things "WE" don't know about Lexus.
I’m buying a silver Lexus I’ve had my eye on next week 👍❤️
Just bought a Lexus RX 350 F Sport awesome car and want to promote Lexus at East Hartford Connecticut they are called Hoffman Lexus would recommend buying from there they are very friendly and nice
Another fun fact, the lexus GS300,IS300, and SC300 share a 2JZ-GE engine that can also be found in the Supra (they don’t get the 2JZ-GTE). Seems to me a great sleeper car to have.
They also made first 10-speed I believe.
Yes.
are you serious? or you kidding?
Luxus is my number 1. My LX570 2010 is on its way, can't wait to start cruising my new ride. It's lexus or nothing.
best car ever. second best Toyota which is the same company.
I'm not in that group but...I've driven 2 lexus..ls400 and the ls430...which I currently own..and look for excuses just to drive my car dayly and I love my car..smooth..quiet...woodgrain as far as the eye can see..and I would recommend this car to anyone
Let me tell you a little shocking secret. Celebrities have been seen driving all sorts of vehicles... ik thats insane right.
Lexus and Toyota's synthetic leather is WAY better than real leather. It doesn't crack and barely marks up, so it looks brand new for years.
Lexus LS 400 sleek design
I had (in summer 2018) a Lexus IS 250 2006, it was my first car. I had it for about 3.5 month for the summer and my dad sold it when I went back to college (I didn't mind it had problems because the previous owner sucked at taking care of it). It was an amazing car. I loved it very very much and I've been missing it for the past 4 weeks. That car was so good looking that people were asking what car is that, and I said it's a 2006 IS 250. I was shocked that it's still turning heads! A 12 year old car was getting people to ask what car is it. Amazing! It only had problems because no one bought it and it's been on the lot for 2 years so the muffler got rusty and had two holes in it (we had a used car dealership and no one bought the Lexus for some reason but when I started driving it people started calling for it). Absolutely loves Lexus.
8 Speeds box? Wow, that sounds like extremely dangerous around my zone of living xD. You can barely use 4th, imagine an 8th.
There are 10 speed ones too..
