I like personally the quietness of my car more than anything. I now own a LS430, before an ES300 and 3 GS'. All were so quiet. HE'S AN ON TIME GOD!

I like the quietness as well. I have a 94 LS400 and an 01 LS430 and both enginessound unbelieveable quiet. The 94 performs amazing and the quietness is still there. I've driven every Lexus model available but the GX. Lexus vehicles are all quiet but none can beat the top-of-the-line LS.

Absolute reliability.! Quiet. Everything works; none of those constant electrical
gremlins that seem to plague other makes.

You could say the same thing for pretty much all the other Lexus models. Lexus design excellent braking systems which resist brake dust problems (often seen on Mercedes-Benz, Audi, etc.)
