Wow they were really conservative with their original sales goal. I expected nothing less!

Good to see the success of Lexus as a brand in Japan. The shadow of owning a Lexus = owning a rebadged Toyota that bothers so many non-believers is sure becoming a thing of the past.

So I wonder if the Japanese rebadge their Toyotas as Lexus like some people badge their Lexus as Toyotas?


BTW...What's the plural of Lexus? ....Lexi? Lexuses?
