Maybe it was included in the price, so I paid in 04' dollars for 08' service. I still think that works for me.
Lexus and any other luxury vehicle company will also cover any defects or break downs while in warranty with no problems whatsoever. However, the issue here is with the supposedly "free" maintenance service. It is very misleading to tell buyers and to advertise it as "free" when in reality it is included in the price of the vehicle, so you are in fact paying for it.

Now, since my friend already made up his mind and is getting the GS, I'd like to close this thread by once again stating this fact: BOTH LINES SIMPLY APPEAL TO DIFFERENT DRIVERS, PERFORMANCE ORIENTED AND LUXURY/COMFORT ORIENTED.
