Disagree with the Lexus statement... No way did they take 20 years to establish. The LS400 released in the US in late 89 was an instant hit. Probably because Toyota were determined to build the best car in the world
world...And sell it at the right price.
The release of the IS series only 8 years after the first LS went on sale cemented Lexus place as a major luxury player by volume.
As for depreciation check MB, once the Gold standard for resale look at 2nd hand E class prices, then weep when you see S class!
The Genesis is an interesting one to watch, Hyundai are a serious outfit and it's probably high time the Koreans stepped it up!
The branding is confusing currently though, no Hyundai badge to be seen but no exclusive dealership experience either...
