As one of the first Lexus dealerships in the Country, respected owner Lou Jones opened Lexus Carlsbad in 1989. Prior to that he had successfully owned and operated Toyota Carlsbad for two decades and that relaxed and friendly manner of doing business was easily carried over to the new Lexus clientele as well. The fact that customers were treated as if they were guests in the employees' own homes became one of the reasons Lexus Carlsbad has earned the prestigious “Elite of Lexus” award more times that any other local Lexus dealership. Over the years, renovations have included more service bays, a new luxurious customer lounge with a gourmet coffee bar, cherry wood and etched glass-surrounded TV area. There is also a reading area, internet-access stations, a parts boutique, and a luxurious new vehicle showroom. At Lexus Carlsbad we take “advancing the art of service” seriously.
