DID YOU KNOW?

  1. Lexus is the latest of the luxury car brands to become available, with its first US models being available in 1989. Additionally from 1989-2005  the Lexus name was not used in Japan because the luxury car market was dominated by German and Italian cars at that time. 
  2. The Lexus LFA uses a Yamaha designed engine coupled with the worlds first 8 speed automatic transmission that uses AI shifting technology that automatically changes gears when accelerating or braking.
