Lexus is a car for people who couldn’t afford to pay for the real deal German brand or are too cheap too spend money on German cars but don’t want to be seen in a Toyota. Plain and simple. You couldn’t pay me enough to drive a Lexus, or give me one for free bc I’d sell it the next day. Every offering Lexus has, the…

It looks like a KIA.

Yes I agree, exploit is the word. It’s his car and he sure as hell can feel free to charge whatever he wants for it but Jalopnik giving him publicity and sort of approving his price is ridiculous. That car is not even worth half that for a daily rental.

Exploit would have been a better word of choice.

Are the 90s Jap cars offended I called them Jap? No.

$84,975. 911 residuals are very high, so they are willing to play ball.

That’s exactly how I feel watching a Doug Demuro video. I have yet to make it past 1 minute into any video with that 40 year old child.

Nice Honda.

Nice Toyota.

You also wouldn’t get the most ground breaking features, newest tech, most intuitive tech or the best in class. So compromise = Lexus. Safety net for those who can’t really afford a premium badge cost. It’s the rich car for poor people.

Don’t get so butt-hurt, he’s just stating his opinion and while I don’t agree with him he’s not completely wrong.

They are though. Lexus is way behind on autonomous driving tech, their MMI interface is horrible laggy, controls for mmi horribly un-intuitive and their navigation looks like its a decade old already.

Lol man get off your high horse and go sit on a cactus.

In other news, water is wet, fire is hot, ice is cold and Gawker media is a cancer.

LOL no? Middle of January when I was car shopping, I had quotes from 2 dealers in Chicagoland for 991.2 carrera “base” with light options for $989/month 10k miles/year with $5K down.

Thanks for saying it, I know there are a bunch of fan boys of 90s japanese cars on here with Fast and Furious and all but that’s ridiculous money for a 90s Jap relic. Beautiful car, but it’s not stock and this owner is a clown clearly looking to extort people on this nostalgia.

You could have done $1K/month on 2017 left over carreras all day lease. On 2018s its tougher but 1100 is doable.

That’s way too much. There I said it. It’s a special car to the owner, that doesn’t make it a special car to everyone. It’s not uber expensive to own or buy. If you care that much, don’t rent out your car. He’s clearly doing this to get money out of the nostaligia fan boy tuner crowd who have always wanted to drive…

That’s ironic bc there are a bunch of biopics on Hitler LOL.

God damn it. I laughed out loud. Starred.
