So basically Toyota. Lexus is a Toyota brand. It's basically a more expensive Toyota (like what Acura is to Honda, or Lincoln to Ford, Cadillac to Chevrolet, and so on and so forth). But because they're more expensive with only a few luxury options over well-spec'd Toyotas (such as brand loyalty), fewer of them are purchased, many are leased etc. Of course they are still going to be as reliable as regular Toyotas, but wouldn't be given as much opportunity to break down. Whereas a Toyota someone will drive into the ground.
