Why Do You Love Your Lexus?

[maneesh]

Just curious..obviously we all love Lexi on this board, but what is it that we love so much about these cars?

If there is one overriding factor about your car that makes it better than anything else you considered, what is that one thing?

For me, it's the totally effortless driving experience.

The look of shock on the faces of the pond life in the riced up shopping trolleys at the lights when I WOT

Just that it's a very individual car. There is anything else on the road that looks the same.

Sadly i don't own a Lexus (yet) but what i like about them is the construction. s*x on wheels in appearance, Surgical in manufacture and has established after market parts available to 'dress here up'.... other than that i don't like the car....

[Niraj]

When you sit in the seat, and look down that bonnet, it feels like the people at Lexus designed this car with ONLY ME in their mind. :D

[Kazi]

Sheer build qulity :D and gangster style!! :D

[whiteman]

the shear beauty of the car :D

The engine always sells a car to me first normally but i liked the pimpin' looks of the lexus too. Its a way of standing out from the crowd especially GS300's but then i am biased :D

[Lex-aholic]

Lot of car, for little money :D

[kam05]

comfort, style, reliability, but most of all its not a BMW!

[gsportcars]

I have always generally liked the IS200 and the GS300. Don't like the LS, RX or SC.

The thing I like most about my car now is the added boost and the fact that I have the only turbo Lexus in the country!!!.........................Ireland that is!!!

[spikes]

a pleasure to look at and drive. japanese reliability.

[IanB]

Originally impressed by the handling and general classy feel of the IS 200. Now I've been forced to get an auto, I find the IS300 box is superb. Great driving car!

IanB :D

I'm guessing you're talking about the IS models....can't see my LS400 being described as 's*x on wheels' (that's the driver of course, in my case)...but...hey, can sell you a nice Ser 3 for £5.5K........it's more a wolf in (grey) sheeps clothing though! :D

[peter026]

Wow factor when driving, Comfort and reliability :)

[Pip]

The contours of the body. The fact its a lexus. Not common. Luxurious and comfortable. Reliable(so far after 2000miles only lol!). When its S/C'd i will also have 200+bhp on tap!!!

[fergy]

Love...nahhhhh...only a car....

Now a Porsche...mmmm....

[Nitmoi]

The type III Ls400 is the most beautiful car I've seen. It is not a pimpmobile or gangsta it is just pure class as the function matches the looks - aerodynamics.

I have been loaned the IS and it is a cafe racer, fine if you are into razzin around. The Ls is pure class and still does 0-60 in 7 secs!

I have owned the best Merc of all time the 450sel 4.5 and 6.9 driven loads of others too but the LS is a dream come true.

[Pip]

Please explain what a 'cafe racer' is Nitmoi as i dont have the foggiest what youre on about?

[spikes]

motorcycles!

think he means a 'go-kart' in comparison (sez the owner of an LS 400 Ser 3 -too (for sale!) who also owned a Citroen AX GT, another go kart!)

Horses (260) for courses? :D
