Cool

You all seem to be a pretty loyal bunch here at ClubLexus.com. But I have a question to test your loyalty...

<If you could trade your Lex for any other car, would you do it, and what would that car be? Let's assume you would have to abstain from all 'Lexi' while you have this other car.>

ex...S430/S500?????????? Any takers??


Later.

If I couldnt just heavily mod my gs engine and keep it, sticking to a "sedan/coupe" theme I would have to say......
M5, CL600, S500, Marinello(spelling?).....Doesnt Aston Martin also have something along these lines? Those are the first to come to mind....hahahahaha..But I dont think this is any reflection of loyalty....just want MORE, MORE , MORE!!!!! Tiny

CL 55, Aston Martin Vantage or a warrantied TVR. But as far as something close in price or attainable there is nothing close.

S600, 911T.
But I am spoiled by the reliability of the Lexus so even if I do get one of those beasts, I would still have a Lexus as a daily driver.

Lexus is like crack, only with four wheels, a V-8, and a sea of fine leather.

Lets see if I was banned from buying another Lexus.. I would get CL55 AMG other than that car there is nothing non-Lexus that I like on the market today.. If anyone ever gets a chance take that Benz out for a test drive and you will see what I am saying.. An incredible machine but the $$$ scares me away..

HAHAHAHA.. "Lexus is like crack".. I love that line.. Maybe we should sent that off to the advertising department of Lexus..
