Again, most of the folks shopping six figure cars are giving at least some portion of their decision over to style and comfort. If they weren't, the roads in nice neighborhoods would just be paved in GT2 RS's and GTR's. The Lexus isn't really a 911 competitor as much as it is an 8er, S Class Coupe and Bentley Conti competitor. It's certainly sleeker and more unique than those three, at least to my eyes. It's really got very few sporting pretensions, so things being faster than it aren't really that important to many buyers.
Your first statement doesn't hold water. VW group is the umbrella company that owns Porsche right? I completely understand and agree with your second paragraph though.
Haha, of course it is. Did you miss the earlier statement about Toyota and Lexus?
