My family has a 98 sc300, a 2005 ls430, and a 2006 rx400h. But my dad isn't feeling the new ls460 (likes the s550 or a8) and the rx400h has this bizarre rattle from the backseat that longo lexus can't fix, so my mom is probably going to change it up at the end of next year. And they are selling my sc300 since I'm away at school all year and only drive it on breaks (god knows what I'm getting). So in a year and a half my family might not even own a lexus anymore.

Seems like Lexus has done a successful job in building brand loyalty.

Because the cars work

Oh yeah, count me as another multi-unit owner.

I've had a 91 LS and a 93 ES before. Currently I have a 97 LS, 99 RX and an 01 IS and will be adding one more to my Lexus fleet...the AWD 07 GS in a few months.

Zach, you are too nice. Like many here, did the german car thing and although I may go back, there will be a Lexus in the garage. As for now, the '03 SC is the toy and the '04 LS is my "mature" car which I will never modify despite what some say (cough cough Henry cough cough Mark cough). I am super interested in the new LS though.

I like purposeful vehicles that fit a specific niche. Lexus does not fill every niche, thus cross brand shopping is necessary.

I like to have a choice of Toyota products to drive every day and I'm quite happy with my current automobiles. But I'd also drive Subarus for reliable transportation. Or a turboed Miata or Elise or 911 for fun.

My Lexus cars:
Current - 05 GS300
Previous - 02 GS300

Family Lexus Cars:
Current - 05 LS430, 06 RX400h
Previous - 99 RX300, 04 RX330

Lexus are nice cars and I love the 2nd gen GS, but besides the GS none of the other Lexus models have what im looking for. The LS, for example, is a great car but it gives u ZERO pleasure to drive it. Im kind of surprised so many CL members want it. Its 50/50 if i will buy a Lexus again.
