I bought the LC over the LX for a few reasons. Most of the LX's I went to check out had something off with them. The AHC as dope as that was I was worried of a failure when I'm in the middle of no where America or some po dunk town. I feel getting parts for a toyota would be easier vs a LX. I sat in both and played with everything between the two. The LX felt better "quality" wise, like there was a noticeable difference in leather quality and plastics (not that i thought there could be). I also really liked the ride in the LX. But with all that, far too many electronics on the LX and I've seen repairs on friends lexus's even at private shops and figured can't go wrong w/ a LC.
