Since Lexus is luxury as it should be, it was bound to attract a few famous personalities. Here are five we admire for their choice.
Lexus, like any other brand, was going to attract a few celebs to its garage sooner or later. After all, the big names usually want some performance and tons of luxury. Rather than deal with the downhill slope in quality the Teutontic titans have doled out, though, some celebs prefer the reliability and durability Lexus offers.
Thus, we poked around to find out who all fell in love with the pursuit of perfection that is Lexus. Here are five such names we admire for making the right choice.
Paul McCartney
If there’s one Lexus fan we’d all love, it’d be Paul McCartney. The music legend picked up an LS 600hL to drive around London, and placed his name on a custom RX400h built for his 2005 tour of the U.S. That crossover later wound up at Barrett-Jackson, raking in $51,700 at the house’s 2007 Scottsdale auction.
Cameron Aubernon's path to automotive journalism began in the early New '10s. Back then, a friend of hers thought she was an independent fashion blogger.
Aubernon wasn't, so she became one, covering fashion in her own way for the next few years.
From there, she's written for: Louisville.com/Louisville Magazine, Insider Louisville, The Voice-Tribune/The Voice, TOPS Louisville, Jeffersontown Magazine, Dispatches Europe, The Truth About Cars, Automotive News, Yahoo Autos, RideApart, Hagerty, and Street Trucks.
Aubernon also served as the editor-in-chief of a short-lived online society publication in Louisville, Kentucky, interned at the city's NPR affiliate, WFPL-FM, and was the de facto publicist-in-residence for a communal art space near the University of Louisville.
