Okay, I need to make things tougher.
1. Can someone explain to me the early recall situation in Lexus history that was applauded by the press and public? What happened and what did Lexus do?
2. Why was the LX 450 built?

They recalled all the cars washed them and left roses for some customers due to cruise control and third brake light problem. The LX450 was built to compete with the range rover they used the landcruiser because a small percentage of lexus owners already had land cruisers.

Here's a good one... my question is....
-What were were the original two V8 engines developed for the LS? In other words, what displacement (liters) were the two engines that came before the 4.0 liter V8 was decided upon in 1987?
