Hopefully, we start getting Lexus down here soon. I have some friends with some older BMWs and Mercedes who are waiting for just that and didn't think the Acuras they sell here were stylish enough for their tastes, but every time I show they see the new Lexuses online, especially the new L460 they get jumpy.
