Another "Duh??"

I haven't run into such inability to comprehend simple facts in a loooong time.

The car pictured is a Toyota "Aristo" in Japan. Recognize it as a US Lexus model??

In the U.S., there is a marketing company named Lexus that sells "luxury" cars manufactured by Toyota of Japan. They are the "high end" of the Toyota line. In Japan, they are sold as Toyotas. The same models ARE NOT sold under both brand names, although some were when the Lexus brand was introduced.

Why the denial of this coommonly known fact. Toyota doesn't attempt to hide it, they just avoid using the brand name Toyota whenever Lexus is involved.

Lexus is a marketing entity, and does not manufacture cars - all Lexi are manufactured by Toyota.
