The New Lexus LS600 hL

It will definitely take sales away from S-klasse and 7-series. I'm sure the hardcore snobs will never switch, but the people who are buying S350s and S430s may be tempted by the superior value proposition.
In a more environmentally conscious world, a hybrid luxury sedan might be more socially acceptable than the bloated piles of Escalade-like excess that are the higher end MB and AMG sedans.

Despite Lexus raising the bar, Japanese engineering will always be below German engineering. Just driving a Benz or BMW versus a Lexus you can feel why German cars are significantly priced higher. Oh yeah let me put my suit on in case of any

I saw this car in person a few months ago at a carshow. It looks a lot better in person than in pictures. I love BMWs, but this would be one Lexus I would have to seriously consider given looks and price.
