Compared to a car like a G90, the G90 moves less unit in USA but in South Korea there is a higher demand for it . I believe the G90 even outsells SClass in South Korea but it’s a different story for the LS sales in Japan. The Japanese don’t even want this car anymore.

The exterior design holds up, but the interior needs work. The center console is a mess & that shifter is ridiculous. They need to do a ground up redesign & make it come fully loaded & only have the executive package as an option. Building the vast majority of them with the same equipment would actually be more cost efficient. There’s still a small market for the big sedan, but Lexus has let the car slowly die & that’s a shame because it was once viewed as the best sedan in the world. Make one last ICE version before transitioning to EV.

Paying $3K additional for paint is a scam. I’m also annoyed that Lexus now only offers all-black or two-toned black interiors. That’s an immediate deal breaker. Black interiors get too hot in the summer, are visually uninteresting, and show every last spec of dirt. Sorry, but a hard pass.
