I was just reading that Lexus changed focus to SUVs with the RX, during the SUV boom, and also as a way of avoiding threatened luxury import car tariffs during the 90's. With their new lineup, that reliance on SUVs is still there, but now cars have taken the lead...

Well you wouldn't expect Lexus vehicles to be on that list, I mean those are the mass movers. They sell more Camrys in a year than the entire Lexus lineup. Each month there are huge numbers there for those cars, compared to the luxury makes.
Where you do see Lexus cars is on the fastest selling, fewest days on the lot (LS, ES, IS have been).
