The luxury car brand with the most character?
I'm so sorry yall, but I really had to give Jaguar MAJOR props for making some of the classiest and beautifully designed cars known to man. Some here know how I feel about Jaguar's(and Lamborghini) timeless designs on most of there vehicles. I cant get enough of them. Well, at least Autospies.com agrees with me. 
Now, if you think otherwise(and I know many will) post some pictures and tell me why you feel that way.( I think Lexus is a given since we are all on a Lexus site)
And the brand new hotness!!!!

Just a little something of what theyh ad to say about the XJ.
It was great to get re-acquainted with the XJ-series!
We like what we saw and have a new appreciation for their products.
They sure have come a long way in our opinion.
These beauties were quite impressive and we highly suggest you visit your dealer and test drive one before you make your final purchase decision.
Especially, if you’re driving or considering a Lexus.
We’ve always believed that a lot of Lexus drivers wanted a Jag because of the style, but ended up with a Lexus, because of reliability concerns.
And yes, it has been an issue in the past, but based on the latest JD Power stuff, it looks like that is no longer a concern with the newer models.
We’ll let you know our experience in a later issue.
Plus, one of the things we tend to overlook when thinking Jaguar is that they are priced significantly lower than their competitors.
Compare an Audi W12 or a Mercedes S600 vs. a Super V8 portfolio and you’ll see.

Jag-U- Are
Jaguar definitely would also be my pic for most charachter aside fom the super exotic cars. But a close second would be MB. That and their styling is the primary reasons people buy their cars.

If we're talking about "mainstream" lux brands, I'd have to go with Jaguar. If we include all lux brands, I'd say Bentley.
Unfortunately, in terms of "character", Lexus would rank near the bottom for me, but higher than Acura.

I absolutely love the new Jags to death but I really have a hard time seeing myself in one. I suppose its because I see mostly old rich guys with cigars or pipes in their mouths.
