Ultra-Luxury Lexus

Re: Ultra-Luxury Lexus

Good writeup! I think the Lexus IS is beautiful, and the reliability of their other model's are very good. But i believe that a very high-end model would be the defining point of the brand-name. Not sure a $100,000 would be very profitable (depending on how many you sell, and i'm not sure of how many have an extra $100,000 sitting around) but it'd be nice to see if they choose a sport sedan, hybrid, or other route.
