Toyota has the Celica GT-S. And the Corolla is supposed to get a high powered version, or so a rumor said. Rally cars have just hit the USA, and their a niche market. Honda still needs to expand to core markets, such as trucks. Also, the Lexus lineup consist fo 5 cars and 3(GX470 is going to be out very soon) SUV's. BMW has 4 car lines and one SUV. But if you count all the variations, and M version, and the Z8, then your right. But what I'm trying to say is Lexus is on par with MB or BMW with 95% of people, as far as brand name goes at least.
All points well taken. That's sorta what I mean w/ the trucks part. They gotta build repulation w/ the Tundra first and once they've proven themselves, maybe then they can move up to the F250 and so on. Toyota has most of the core market covered, how they gotta enter the niche market. While Honda has their niche market cover and need to fill up all the core market. When I was refering to Lexus, I was talking about all the variants. My point is there's still some room for Toyota to grow.
