@@amishparadise1924 That's true. Lexus seems to take the competition at a point in time and work towards that instead of working towards their own goal. They design their car to match a competitor's car at a point in time. So when a new lexus comes out it is already outdated because the Germans are doing their own thing and designing their cars for the future. The competition doesn't stop at a point but lexus seems to benchmark their cars to other cars at a point in time.

Joe, I believe this car does have remote start. One day my 2017 ES350 started by itself while in the garage of my home. I was concerned and called Lexus who informed me that without notification, they added this feature "through the air". Fearing I could die of carbon monoxide poisoning I demanded it be removed! After watching this video I attempted to remotely start my newer 2020 ES350. and to my surprise IT DID START! You hit the lock button on the remote twice and it starts on the 3rd click. I feel customers need to be made aware of this.Lexus assured me it shuts down when the door opens or 45 seconds whichever comes first.

Lexus quality is unique and on another level. The longer you own these cars, the more you appreciate how well built these cars are. Styling was never a Lexus strength but over the past few years, their styling has improved and like anything, their design language will not appeal to everyone. This car will still be on the road over the long run, while their European competition will be lawn ornaments.

OK I just bought a 2020 Lexus LS 500 all-wheel-drive inspiration series with the specific color that goes with the inspiration series and I traded in a 2018 E400 coupe’. It was the only build of its kind in America according to Mercedes Benz so it cost around $93,000. The first thing that I would like everybody to know is that I have owned two S class Mercedes Benz. both with the equivalent executive package. So I consider myself an expert when it comes to these kind of cars. My E400 had a 23 speaker Burmeister stereo system in it. My Lexus inspiration series has a 23 speaker Mark Levinson stereo system. I know I’m going to make all the Lexus fan-boys upset but that Mark Levinson system comes nowhere close to that Mercedes-Benz Burmeister system. So instead of getting into a whole bunch of stuff that’s going to tick people off. Let me get to the bottom line if you want quality, refinement, and just pure opulence then you want the Lexus. If you’re into technology and gadgets and performance then you want the Mercedes at the end of the day Lexus is going to last. Mercedes is designed according to Mercedes Benz to trade in every 4 to 5 years and get a new one but the Lexus you can keep for 25 or 30 years if you want. I’ve had several Mercedes Benz I just got tired of going to the shop every time it had an issue which was plenty! Lexus I just drive it and change the oil they both cost $120,000 but at the end of the day I’m getting more for my money with the Lexus.

The biggest problem with lexus is the technology they use. It's very outdated especially the infotainment system. The current S Class is 7 years old yet the interior design and technology is ahead. The new S comes out soon and then it will be miles ahead yet again. Lexus seems to design their cars for competitors at a point in time. They don't create for the future like Mercedes and BMW and Audi. So then when a new lexus comes out, it is behind the competition because the competition just doesn't stand still. Lexus needs to rethink what they're doing. Their cars are no doubt however built extremely well.
