OK, but what's your point? It is common knowledge lower income areas, especially with prostitutes and pushers, tend to name themselves "Mercedes" and "Lexus". What this has to do with a prep school I don't quite see. This story is about a **** actress as you recall.

It has just as much relevance to your first comment about finding 'h03s' in the ghetto. You're right that you may find some people in the ghetto who re-name themselves "Mercedes" and "Lexus" as you put it but it is much more likely to go to Suburbia and find those names on the actual birth certificates as actual monikers. So I'm replying to your 'ghetto' comment because I felt it had no relevance, a h03 is a h03 no matter whether they are acceping (a food stamp or a diamond bracelet) for payment.

Default Lexus Sues **** Web Site For Illegal Name Use !!



Lexus sues a Dearborn **** Web site
Automaker objects to use of name


June 1, 2007

BY STEVE NEAVLING

FREE PRESS STAFF WRITER

Toyota Motor Corp. is worried about where two metro Detroiters are choosing to park its luxury Lexus name.

The Japan-based automaker filed a federal suit Thursday in Detroit, alleging Mario Mendoza, 26, and Katie Lynn Krzywdzinski, 24, both of Dearborn, broke trademark laws by using "Lexus" as the name of a pornographic Web site and of a site star.

The suit alleges the site "uses the mark 'Lexus' in an unwholesome and unsavory context" and "is likely to tarnish and blur the distinctive qualities" of the car model.

The site operators didn't return calls or e-mails seeking comment. Toyota declined to comment.

The site offers pictures and videos for $5 for a three-day trial to $40 for three months.

On the site, the star, Lexus Cash claims to be an amateur who "started making home videos of my girlfriends fooling around."

It was not clear whether the automaker has acted against a more famous **** star known simply as Lexus.

Maybe the guy is hoping Lexus would just pay him off.

I'm sure the interior would be top notch just as Lexus is known for.
