And don't try and bring up how S-Class/ 7 series is more "sporty" because when you are driving an executive luxury car, who the hell wants it to be that sporty when its so heavy.

BMW fanboy post at its finest.
I am not bringing any of your points but tangential I intend to reach them:

Best seats ever (and the most money ever spend on seats and seat technology )belong to Mercedes and BMW. At least thei had a war in this matter several years ago.

Lexus is just a bunch af thieves that steal technology from everyone. Should I mention the first "wanna be Mercedes " models? Funny thing though, BMW and MERCEDES are the first that have the guts to throw new technology in the market. Lexus waits untill is proven or becomes more reliable, eventualy take the idea and improve it. But they are always behind. Also, from technical point of view, they are behind. In many aspects. I don't care about their pixels on the DVD which is made by Toshiba or whatever. I care about vehicle technical stuff. It is a car so I supose to drive it nothing else.

Lexus can have multi, multi link suspension. The handling and the ride in the germans is better. For me the final verdict is important.

I am aware of the real interior of the cars. German engineering is very very different from the japanese in many aspects including technical aproach. You should work on them to understand what I am saying.

Yes, I drove many Lexus and other japanese. For me a Honda makes more sense and gives me more pleasure than their leather Camrys. I owned many cars, english, germans, japanese. I still own a Honda, but The truth is, from the steel they use to the paint the quality differs.

First hybrid in its class? Everyone can do a hybrid. Actualy, Ford Fusion takes the cake in this one too and is not too fussy about it. However, nobody cares about a hybrid. And BMW was fisrt in many things, do you want a list?

And luxury is not about a nice leather or the rose wood. It's about other things as well.
I should drop the conversation after you said that is not about sporty. In this case my friend, ANY company can build a boat that can move a sofa and a mobile desk...

Fan boy's post?
Yes Iam a fan, but I am also very aware of the cars that are out there, and under any circumstances I will not buy a Lexus. For many reasons, including the fact that that car doesnt worth the money. For me. If you believe otherwise, good for you, I do respect your choice.

Bottom line, this is my opinion and you can live with it or not. I will sleep well regardless...
