@@saedalbittar1841 or unreliability, or cost... I've had 2 S classes and my best mate has had a number of 7 series. I'm not down on German cars, but you have to be real. And, even putting aside issues of cost and quality, while I like the current S class this Lexus is drastically more tasteful than the current 7 series which is absolutely atrocious.
This is what real class is. Genuine leather, proper wood, hand stitched parts, real metal trims & inlays and Japanese reliability! Buying German for the “historical quality” or the badge prestige is redundant. German quality is now nothing more than fluffing their vehicles with cheap electronic/software “features” in replacement of genuine quality materials.
My uncle has driven one of these here in Norway in the harsh winters as a taxi since 2017- It has 486.000km. Just your regular maintenance. It still drives like new he says.
I want the es300h to come back. Such a great car! And the only hybrid I’d consider buying (yes it’s a Camry hybrid but the 2013 range ones were amazing inside
Good news is that, the es300h will get a huge refresh and facelift meaning that even the hybrid ones will be AWD/4-WHEEL-DRIVE. I am waiting for that refresh, better hybrid, better efficiency, better milege, and much more for sure. That is when I will buy the ES as well. One of my fav cars!
It's nice but it's got WAY too many tech options. A bluray player AND a HDMI port is unnecessary. I love Lexus and I've wanted one for years, but honestly you could knock of 20k if it weren't for all that added tech
This has never really been competitive with the tech of the S Class and 7 series. It feels like when they bring out a new one, it's already a few years behind. It's like they design it for the German competition at the time they conceived it not for when it'll come out. They don't build it with stuff knowing it'll be released only maybe a few years after development started. So it feels dated from launch.
I worked for Lexus from 92-07 , I was a 22yr old when I started and loved the original LS400, feels like yesterday when I worked for Lexus , we sue to call it a Japanese Caddi.
I’d buy this over the s class and 7 series simply because it’s unique. The aforementioned you see every day but probably saw one ls500 here in the last year
Does it have the soft close doors? My 2007 ls460 has that feature its nice because that deep thwomp when you close your doors isnt great at 4am leaving for work in the morning 😂
thank you for the honest review , much appreciated gentleman , there were some funny moments , which helped for me to subscribe to your channel , hello from Miami , FL 🌴
THANK YOU ASUS! Learn more here! www.asus.com/au/business/
Would buy that a million times before a 7 series or S class - even in that colour...
Yeah nah
I'd take the exterior of the Lexus and the interior of the 7 series
They can never reach the german’s luxury, design and uniqueness

My brother if you think Australia is the last to get everything.... Chief come to South Africa! We still waiting for the LS500 F sport and LS500h
Great brand, great car ❤

Guys what’s happening with the powered tailgate announcements? China was harmony free, and you really dropped the ball on this one Daddy Matt
HE'S BACK!
The non hybrid version comes with more power (3.5 v6 twin turbo) and conventional gear box (Not CVT) with more driving pleasure
What was that button inside the glovebox? And it would be cool to see the ambient lighting for the interior, when dark outside.
If lexus can keep up with some of the features that the others have nothing would stop them
Lexus website does list a Wireless Charger
I believe it’s for rear seat passengers only
For me, it's more interesting than the 7 series and s class
Wish they sold these in Europe
Dear God that CVT gearbox in a luxury car...My ears the goggles do nothing!
I like how it looks from the back, the front? Not so much
It's nice but it's got WAY too many tech options. A bluray player AND a HDMI port is unnecessary. I love Lexus and I've wanted one for years, but honestly you could knock of 20k if it weren't for all that added tech
last week buy it
I’d rather have a Toyota Camry 😂
could you take a look at chery arizo 8
You need to try Tata nexon
The Lexus will still be almost the same after 20 years whereas the BMW & Mercedes…

Love this beast❤

My uncle sold Lexus when they first came here, and you're right - I'll never forget my first ride in the original LS400. Superb vehicle.
These cars are beautiful if you look at the details and really stare at them

Yes same here
The west goes down the east comes up you can’t do anything you’re fucked up

Most people, especially just German fans, will never understand Lexus supreme quality

I think that camera around Jacobs waist was just as excited as he was in that Asus bit.
Leg days is very important.
With the 500 in its tag it should have the 5.0 L naturally aspired engine the LC500 and the ISF 500 have
Great content. The bezels on that asus laptop are just crazy
Asus yesss!!
this one beat all the German cars
thank you for the honest review , much appreciated gentleman , there were some funny moments , which helped for me to subscribe to your channel , hello from Miami , FL 🌴
This still has stuff that looks like cheap plastic. The original ls400 was without as many sacrifices.
Are these two a couple? Serious question
That is a damn fine looking motor
This isn't JDM, it's available all over the world.
There was a poverty blank button too 😐
