Have you ever owned a Lexus?
I haven't, but I really want to. They originated from a corporate project to develop a new premium sedan.
Yeah they seem pretty nice. I think Lexus is owned by Toyota, is that right?
I believe it's different to that, since Lexus from 1989 to 2005 were released in Japan under the Toyota marque.
That is interesting, so now they are their own company.
That is correct! Their cars are now largely produced in Japan.
I wonder why they got spun off from Toyota. You would think Toyota would want to keep them around.
I'm not too sure, especially with Lexus selling their cars under the name of Toyota occasionally, at least years ago.
Yeah Toyota I think has the best selling car!
I don't know about that. Lexus' sedans, coupes, convertibles, and SUVs are really good quality and sell well too.
