Quality controls and supplier demands on Lexus' are much much higher than on Toyotas.
Have you ever sat in the new RL? It has better material and assembly quality than any of its competitors, including E class, GS, M35 and especially the 5 series, heck even 7 series. Yes I said it, it feels more solid than Lexus. There's no comparison between RL and TL, never mind Accord. Acura didn't cut a single corner in this one. Yeah, its not LS or S class, but it's a lot cheaper. Comparing it to Accord is plain out stupid. :screwy:

The problem with RL's interior is despite its quality it just doesn't look as gorgeous as M35 or GS, and much the same can be said about it's exterior. But then again, M35 looks gorgeous but you get tin can body panels and second rate paint job with gorgeous yet flimzy interior. I strongly believe RL is the best car for your 50k if you are looking for V6 AWD loaded with every possible option.
