I've gone through a few Lexii, starting in 1999 with a 95 LS400. During my 2nd year of MBA school, coming home from a final and looking forward to the International Trip to Amsterdam for class, got sideswiped by someone who blew their tire on the freeway and ended upside down in a ditch (Jamboree at the 405 South). Totalled car.

Bought a 97 LS 400 to replace, once I came back from Europe. Then a 92 SC400, which I gave to my lil sister who went off to college (UC Rivertucky). Bought the wife a 2000 RX300, which we just traded in for a 98 GS400. The GS400 is by far my favorite, although the 97 LS is "my car" I am always trading with her to drive the GS.

My wife's parents also have an LS400, and my dad has a LS430, so I guess we're all about the Lex :D

Almost 14 years now...........first was a 92 Champagne Beige Metallic SC400; the anniversary date is in 2 weeks!

Long gone but never forgotten. My God, what a car that was...........and there were so few back then, people looked at you as if you'd just driven up in the space shuttle!!!

"have had 4 over 20 years"

Can we assume you arrived at 20 years by multiplying number of cars times number of years? Lexus began life in this country in 1989............

My first lexus is a 1996 ES 300 and I still have it. I remember when I first got it. The car had three miles on it and now I'm at 236K miles and it's still going strong. I love the car. I take care of it and it takes care of me.

My immediate family has owned Lexus brand since 1990. My dad had the 1990 LS400 grey on grey for 9 strong and flawless years! At that point it got traded in for a CPO SC300, stickin with the Lexus name!

8 yrs for me. I started with a used LS400 and moved to a GS400 after a brief departure with an Audi. But, I count the 2 off years as I helped guide my parents to their LS430 during that time. :thumbup:

Bought a 1990 LS400 when they were first introduced 1990 added a 1992 SC400 in '92 which I still have with 343,000 miles. When the LS was totaled in 2000 I replaced it with a 2000 LX470. Last year since we needed a third car for my teenage daughter, I bought a 1998 GS400 as my daily driver, passing the aged but still reliable SC to my daughter. Funny though, she always wanted to "borrow" the GS whenever it was available.

over 6 years here. I remember when I first walked into Lexus of Pleasanton during my lunch break, my friend from work looked like he was a kid even though he was 21. Only 2 sales people thought I was serious about buying the GS. (I was only 24 at the time) Well later that night I came back with a check and the rest was history. :D

Well I recently purchased my first Lexus but we've always had them in the family. My dad loves Lexus automobile.

He owned a 1996 SC400 Black/Biege that he recently traded in for a 2006 S550. In 2005 he also picked up a Biege GX470 w/Navi, my older sister use to own a 1998 GS300 in White/biege that she traded in for a H2. I picked up my 00 GS for a project car, always loved the Japanese style tuning of VIP. Now's my chance to get it done :thumbup:
