Incredible year for Lexus, they came much closer to #1 this year than last year, but they will not be able to overcome BMW with only one month left.

Historically, December numbers are as followed:

1. BMW ~ 40K
2. Lexus ~ 38K
3. MB ` 34K

So pending on MB's November numbers, Lexus has an outside chance of getting to #2 year-end. But will not #1 this year.

With Toyota on a roll and VW tanking, who is going to challenge them?

Looks like NX is bringing in new customers because none of their other SUVs took a hit (possibly Highlander customers) and RX still selling well in its last year. Can't believe they can still sell those ugly GX/LX trucks.

Seems to me like the NX took the sales of the ES, I know they are not in the same class but similar in price range.

GX is selling extremely well into the 3rd year of the face lift. It's a cash cow for Lexus. Surprisingly it's the only model now with a touch screen.
