Lexus' bread and butter has always been ES and RX, now NX, so they're just used to the cars selling themselves. But if we ever get to a day where we have NX F or RX F and things like that, Lexus is going to have to change how they approach the customer once they walk into the showroom. Of course, another big part of this is marketing and advertising, but still. Once you move above $60-65k, Lexus needs some help with training their sales force on articulating the value in things like luxury packages, sports packages, performance options, etc.
I'm curious how American Lexus dealers do with customization on their "L-cars". IMO getting exactly what the buyers want is very important in this segment; they want to stand out and will not make any compromise. For example, if I said I want a red mica 500 with Kiriko glass, they will give me a red mica 500 with Kiriko glass or I'll walk away. They really can't say "hey here's one on the lot in black with walnut wood and it's $20k cheaper" and risk losing a sale.
