Top 10 Lexus Moments of 2020

2021 Lexus LC 500

2020 had a lot of downs more than ups. For Lexus fans, though, there were enough moments to overcome the darkness from this year.

What’s there to say about 2020? We know it’ll still be with us until some time in 2021. Certainly the worst way to start a new decade, though, perhaps, it’ll be like what they say about March: in like a lion, out like a lamb. And yet, Lexus fans did have a few things to celebrate (and, yes, mourn) in this horrible year.

Thus, these are the 10 moments which defined Lexus in the Year of Our Corona 2020.

The GS Leaves the Building

In 1993, the GS joined the ES, SC and LS as the fourth overall model of the growing Lexus lineup on the brand’s fifth anniversary. Four generations later, the last GS left the factory in August 2020. In that time, the midsize sedan took part in endurance racing, made debuts at Pebble Beach and the Detroit Auto Show, and once had its style penned by none other than Giorgetto Giugiario of Italdesign. Now, it goes on its “eternal tour” upon the roads of history.

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.

Aubernon is a member of the International Motor Press Association, and the Washington Automotive Press Association.
