As opposed to a Yaris liftback (with easy rear entry) ?

most current TT owners don't like the new model.

That's ok.

People here go on and on about Lexus and they're just a stepped up Toyota.

TT 3.2 is indeed a R32 (engine, brakes, suspension, DSG) except for the Quattro system. Anyway I like it !

audi's reliability is less than desireable, esp considering their purchase price.

the new $105,000+ Lexus LS 600 L is alot more than stepped up Toyota. It's about to open up a can of ass whippin on BMW, and Benz. Most of the Lexus models do seem like a pimped out version of a toyota which really isn't a bad thing either.

Lexus IS Toyota. And as you said, it's a good thing.

I'm just reluctant to shell out $40K for a car that shares its platform and major components with a $15K subcompact.

Toyota isn't selling a Lexus coupe for $30-$40K based on a Corrolla platform...

Eww. Get a real car, broly.

(Escalade/navigator is a just a working man's chev/ford pick up truck underneath)

Wouldn't touch an SUV with a ten foot pole.

I drive <6k miles a year. Any vehicle would last me more than a decade.

Even a Chrysler product

you have obviously never "owned" a jaguar, mg, fiat, triumph, sunbeam, alfa.....or did they "own" me? more of expensive adult toys than actual means of transportation :worried:

Lexus is god! I've never been happier with a car, my SC400 has 200,000+ miles and it still runs like it was new. On the flip side I'm kinda hoping it will die so I can justify going and getting a new Lexus. There are only two types of people who hate Lexus, those who've never owned one, and those who can't afford one.

I could easily afford a Lexus if I gave up some basics.

Like electricity and eating

If they're good for 200k miles wonder if I should consider a pre-owned model with about 50k miles

but a civil service time sufferer poor man.

The older SC400s that were imported from Japan are a 500,000 mile rated engine.

Why have something like that? Doesn't everyone get one? Amd I have never even walked on a lot where they sell those cookie cutter wanna be cars. But, hey I take the bus anyway. :qt:

I can, but I'm not aware of any mfg who spews hyperbole of that magnitude.

There's no one out there that I know of who "rates" engines for their projected mileage.
