I think Lexus keeps Mercedes and BMW on their toes, and that's good for all of us

I would second that....in my area of the country the MB dealers are weak....service,professionalism..etc

where the Lexus dealers are spectacular...and come to think of it I have NEVER heard anyone complain about a Lexus dealer ....I have heard a a myriad(including mine) about MB dealers antics.
Makes me wonder if they have lost than a few customers due to service at the dealership level.

Has anyone stopped to think that the Germans (mostly Mercedes) have done all the R&D on just about every major automotive inovation for years and years. Everything on a Lexus LS was invented by either Mercedes or BMW (almost all Mercedes
That could be true...but it seems its takes the Lexus to make the improvements to make the innovations reliable.
I assure you if they could make an LS400 drive like my 140 I would trade TODAY.
My personal car is a two owner and for all practical purposes has been in the shop much of its life.People laugh when I say its has had over $20,000 in repairs in the last 5 years.
I told that to Lexus salemen when I test drove a car there recently and they didn't belive a car could have that many problems...and told me all I needed to do was trade for something reliable and the problems would be over.
