I didn't know that until I found this out on a manufacturer's list. Toyota actually makes the Lexus'. So Lexus is really in the Toyota family. Did anybody already know this?

Yes, i knew that a long time ago, Lexus is almost like the higher end toyota. But they are both good cars. It's nice that you are always learning something new!

YES. Cadillac used to have a commercial where they said "a Lexus is just an upgraded Toyota".
MY thoughts were: Gee, how could you do any better than that?
You take one of the finest cars on earth and build an upgraded model of it.
Whoever thought up THAT commercial sure looked like an idiot.

Yep...Lexus is the luxury brand of Toyota just as Acura & Infiniti are the luxury brands of Honda & Nissan respectively. Also notice that these luxury brands do not use a name for a model, like Corolla etc. but numbers and letters, like GS40 etc...kinda Mercedes and Beemer style...makes it sound expensive :-) Just my 2 cents!

Actually TMC (Toyota Motor Corporation) manufacturers Toyota and Lexus brand vehicles, is in partnership with GM in the NUMMI plant in California which built cars for both Toyota and Chevrolet, and owns significant stakes in other vehicle manufacturers in including Daihatsu.

And the rumor is that you get some of that Lexus quality on their less expensive models (like the Avalon?). Even the same 3.5 Liter engine may be used. I'd still rather have the Lexus name on the car, but I can't afford to pay for it.
