Any of the LS variants is built with a comfort bias, which isn’t a bad thing in a luxury sedan. And if – in making an investment north of $70,000 – you care to hold onto it past the payment period, there’s a lot to be said for older Japanese vis-à-vis older German. Lexus holds its high resale value, in part, because of better long-term reliability.
If you enjoy leading-edge design, along with a cut-and-thrust capability, the LS sedan may not be your cup of espresso. That said, we’ve yet to see a BMW 7 Series or an Audi A8 on an autocross course, begging the question: Why not a Lexus?
