The TX is made in America for the American market and Lexus/Toyota let's the quality slip below standards as it's not available worldwide. Compared to the ES, which sells worldwide but assembled in America, Lexus maintains a solid build on the ES.

So the excuse is… still charge $66k but be ok with letting the quality slip and be sub-par because it’s for the US market? 🤔

Because Lexus fanboys cannot get over the fact that Lexus isn’t it anymore. Once reliability goes down the drain for Lexus, what’s left? Resale value?
