I am planning to buy a Lexus, yet i notice Lexus cars look almost identical to Toyota cars, i assume they just crossover the car, do a few touchups to the grille and lights and re-badge it.

Are there any major differences to the engine or interior of the Lexus that justify the x2 price increase to its Toyota counterpart?
 
Lexus is just another marketing strategy from Toyota to target the higher income customers.

You pay more mostly for the brand. Most Lexus models cannot be found on the Toyota range, like the GS and the new IS models. The engine and power is much bigger and smooth than Toyota makes.

If you plan to spend the money on the Lexus, why not get a German car like the BMW and Audi? Afterall, Lexus cars are targeted to compete with German automobile manufacturers anyway. And honestly, I prefer German engineering.
