India is not Beverly Hills. In a nation full of these, it is doubtful how much of a market there will be for something like an LC.

India has wealthy people. Just like many other countries.

India isn't the most fun place to drive, as I am told by my coworkers who are from Bangalore. "Traffic laws? What traffic laws?" For me, owning an expensive car in a place like that could be really stressful. However, not all of India is a metropolis, so there could be fun to be had. Then again, the 500h version of the LC is probably better for trundling around town in than destroying a back road.

It truly depends on where you live in India. Where Lexus is selling their cars, they are very wealthy areas. Those stressful videos that we often see is not the case everywhere. People who are wealthy and who can afford a Lexus, would never be driving in those traffic long winded traffic jams.
