Once upon a time, the Japanese cannot offer German and British levels of luxury. In the present, the Lexus LS is there with top notch comfort and quality, which rivals find it hard to imitate. If you prefer something comfortable than engaging, this is the preferred pick.
The Good: High levels of comfort in a reliable package
The Bad: Low levels of driving fun
Price Range: P7,418,000-P10,638,000
