This was difficult for me, but I had to go with the GS F. To me, it's the most versatile vehicle in the lineup, the one I would love to live with.

Even so, wouldn't kick an LX or LS out of my driveway.

For me, it's pretty much a tossup between GS F and LC, but I ultimately went with the latter. Its totally distinctive style inside and out gives it the nod from me.

I've got to agree with Krew, however, that the GS F's do-it-all versatility makes it a super-close contender.

I picked the IS. For me, it is the perfect size, perfect balance between having a nice car but not attracting too much attention and it drives wonderfully, has a large boot, 4 doors and reasonably powered without being extremely so. RWD also. Always been my favourite car of all time since gen 1. Don't even care that the current IS is old. Oldie but a goodie I say.

But if the question was "which is the best Lexus"...LC500 hands down. Then LS500. Then GS-F.

Hands down the best model in Lexus's current lineup is the new ES. The NX is second.
(9+ years of experience as a Lexus technology specialist)

As much as I rave about the GS F and would love to own an LS, the ES was definitely on my voting radar. It's the car I would own if I had bought a car in 2018 instead of 2017.

RCF.

It is the most dynamic car (and closest thing to a sports car) to drive in the Lexus line up and the attention it gets. Sheer joy to own.

Current GS owner. I check this page daily to read news about it being redesigned or discontinued. I love the car and really hope they go with another redesign (in the rumored form of an A7/CLS competitor). I know that 2020 will be the last year for this model and I’m really anxious to find out what’s next for it.

“Like” as opposed to “what is best” (perhaps another poll?) means the LC. Seeing one on the road shows how absolutely gorgeous it is and the power and interior kick it way up front for me.

My vote = LC. It is way too high level to be in my (financial) reach, but that's not the reason for my choice. As a current Lexus employee, I can tell you that this is - by far - the best developed model in the entire range.
If I would have to choose for a daily driver, then my choice would be the IS with F SPORT equipment. Unfortunately there is no station wagon version to be more practical and of course I would perhaps wait for a new generation, but I prefer to drive a sporty low seater than an SUV like NX or RX. At least the trunk space of IS is decent + foldable rear seats + possibility to put a bike holder on a towing hitch or a roof rack.

I have a small doubt to choose for the ES as a daily driver, as this car is very well developed as well (much better than the LS hybrid). But again, no station wagon version available and, what is more important, no possibility whatsoever to have foldable rear seats, bike holder or roof top box... so not practical at all for my current family situation. ;)
